klaatu said: Those prince "subliminal messages" or samples are clearly heard through the songs... A subliminal item is in fact supposed to be hidden... Here it is more like a mysterious game Prince plays for the listeners to fill discussions about it... That's how the interest for this or that song remains (to a certain extent...) I agree klaatu.
These are playful subtleties which Prince adds whilst recording which adds interest to the listening experience. ALT+PLS+RTN: Pure as a pane of ice. It's a gift. | |

My favorit one is still the one on "New Position" where
the choir goes P.U.S.S.Y. I'm not sure if that's considered a 'subliminal message' but it is surely a sublime touch and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

jonno said: i know about playing darling nikki backwardse at the end but are there any other neat and less obvious subliminal messages in prince's songs/albums.
subliminal messages interest the hell outta me so id appreciate anything you guys have come across. thanks. In "My Name Is Prince" between 5:32/5:33, between those Tony M. raps, there's something that appears to be some dutch guy saying "We zullen wel zien"... Neversin. O(+>NIИ<+)O

Lammastide said: By the way, has anyone ever played Irresistible Bitch backwards? There seems to be some backtracking at the beginning. Is this correct? It's not backwards. It is mainly the sound of a flanger effect coming back into the mix from an open effects return. Under that sound, Prince is speaking commandinly forward (bleed-through in a drum mic, or bass pickup) telling the recording engineer to "Turn down the monitor", then her restarts the song. If you listen to this part loud, (or close with headphones) you will hear everything. | |

Whatever. That makes no sense at all. Why whisper 'starvation' all of the sudden out of nowhere with no reference to anything in the song. 'Salvation' would make sense since the song is about the battle between the devil and the lord for the soul of humanity. | |
