Yes, definately there is a cowbell.

Prince was obsessed with three things during that period of his life : dihydrogenated monoxide, vaginas, and cowbells. To Prince, they were all the same interrelated thing. Dihydrogen monoxide moistened the vaginas, and the cowbells could be chimed to attract the vaginas to him.

Surely, where you see a cowbell, vaginas will be close by.


Definately, there is a cowbell in that song.

I had no idea! It's weird! I never thought of Prince as much of a cowbell fan...but, you pretty much confirmed what I thought - Prince plays the HELL out of the cowbell in "Hot Thing"..... nod

OH MY GOD. I'm watching SIGN O THE TIMES on showtime right now and the song IT'S GONNA BE A BEAUTIFUL NIGHT is on. The beats match Farrell's cowbell playing.


Bay area in the house!!!

I dunno....I think it just started on SNL with Christopher Walken and Will Ferrell in their "VH! Behind the Music: The Blue Oyster Cult" sketch....(that's where the animated graphic above comes from)....I could be wrong, but I think that was the first "more cowbell" reference came from.... smile

It's funny - Prince can play nearly every instrument known to man, yet he can't hack it with the cowbell! Go figure!
