What the heck is he saying???

In "Pheromone," an amazing song by the way, you can, if you listen to the background vocals, hear Prince saying something. His voice sounds like it is on a synthesizer or something, it sounds robotic. But he is saying something. Anyone know? hmmm

"Pheromone make a nigga go crazy,fuckin' around make a nigga wanna die" is the background loop.

I've never been able to tell what the hell he is yelling at the end of "Movie Star" though. It cracks me up each time even if I don't get it, though. "Go to Eighties, boy!"?!?

I think he says "Hades (hay-deez)," which is hell, not eighties.

It is indeed Hades, in Movie Star.

Hades was the Ancient Greek name for hell, or the underworld. Prince uses it here as it is just the sort of pretentious replacement of a standard word that the "movie star" would use - hence, "Go to Hades, boy!", instead of simply, "Go to hell!".

Me too! I never noticed any background noice on Pheromone before. I have to check this out.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

Yup.

He's saying:

Hello, My name is prince.
I'm into my fith soul now, and each is consumed in the pursuit of Satan.
Satan my master will drink the blood of my ancestors right
after he spanks your soul with a rusty spatula.
Thank you and good night.




... It's very hard to hear, but it's in there. shrug
