Chronologically speaking...
***Prince offers to Ray Charles ***Ray says Fuck Off Prince...(paraphrasing) ***Pepsi offers Ray a contract to sing a jingle ***Ray says, sure, and I think I know just the song... ***Pepsi offers to buy the song from Prince ***$$$ Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind. | |

Prince didn't actually write the song, in a thread a long time ago it was discovered his version just builds on an existing jingle written by someone else.
ASCAP Title Code 510092625 Uh-huh {Prince} ASCAP Title Code 570059255 You Got The Right One Baby-Diet Pepsi {Peter Cofield and Alfred Merrin} From that thread: please allow me to set the record straight...My name is Peter Cofield
and I composed the uh huh song for diet pepsi in 1990...I wrote the tune and collborated on the lyrics with Al Merrin who worked for the agency involved.. Prince heard the tune with Ray singing it and then decided to his own"real" song...any ordinary google search would substantiate this ..or any inquiry to pepsico inc...thanks Peter | |
