I have been listening to some Prince songs tonight--including the long version of "Shockacdelica" and "Ole School Company" and I just simply don't like the "speeded up" version of his voice on these songs and others like them... Again, now I'm hearing the "speeded up" voice on "You've Got The Look" and I don't like it! I prefer to hear these songs in Prince's natural voice. Are there songs that you like to hear him sing in the "hyper-feminine" voice? To me, it sounds like Alvin and the Chipmunks--and when I say that--I'm referring to the original "Chipmunks Christmas Album" my Mom played when I was a little kid! Am I wrong for liking these type of songs better in P's natural voice? I know it is a matter of choice, but they just sound better in his voice--IMO! eek

Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise.

I love the older camille vocals, and I noticed the posted cover of the camille album, I have a different cover too wich is strange but somehow cute so thought I would post it smile

Love the " Hey wanna get in my Shockadeli-car? "

^^That cover, as good as it is, is NOT the original cover of the original album.

Borisfishpaw did that. And it was an astounding cover.

I've never seen the really original cover, all I know is that it was going to feature a stick man (squiggled by Susan Rogers) who had 'X's for eyes.

And that is the idea Boris superbly used.
