Backup vocals on "Dig U Better Dead"?

I've just listened to Chaos and Disorder for the first time in ages (and enjoyed it more than I remembered), but I'm left wondering who it is singing backup on "Dig U Better Dead". The only female vocalists I see listed are Rosie and Mayte, but it sure doesn't sound like either of them.

Anyone know?

I've always thought it was Rosie with her voice pitch-shifted way higher.

It's Rosie...I'm 99.999% sure wink
Prince did an interview with a woman at Record World. They talked about whatever, then he asked her: "Does your pubic hair go up to your navel?" At that moment, we thought maybe we shouldn't encourage him to do interviews.

AGREED! people on here were telling me how shit it was....and when i brought it i loved it nod
Everybody's looking 4 the ladder
Everybody wants salvation of the soul
The steps U take are no easy road
But the reward is great
4 those who want 2 go
