I think it should have been included on every album, just as it's been included in every concert since it's release.

If he really wanted to have a hit, he should have done a 'Raspberry Beret/Take Me With U' medley and done it a lot.

I also think 'Raspberry Beret' should be included on the upcoming '20Ten Deluxe' and 'Welcome 2 America' albums.

I think he should change the band's name to 'The Raspberry Beret's.' No, fuck that, he should change his name to 'Raspberry Beret.'

Really there is no place where 'Raspberry Beret' doesn't work better than what's already working just fine there.

I would love to hear the original 82 version of Raspberry Beret and the 81 version of Baby, I'm A Star However, I do not agree that the song would fit on Purple Rain at all. It's too childish for something as serious as Purple Rain. Maybe Under the Cherry Moon, but that's all.

Take Me With U is the only happy-go-lucky song that deserves to be on Purple Rain.

ecstasy, what about Let's Go Crazy, I would Die 4 U and When Doves Cry? They should've made the final cut, you think?

Is Raspberry Beret just the greatest song in existence? I think so.

Every song by every artist since 'Raspberry Beret' has just been a failed attempt at trying to capture even a fraction of the magic that is 'Raspberry Beret.'

The Beatles broke up because they couldn't write 'Raspberry Beret.'

Adam was cast out of Eden because he didn't write 'Raspberry Beret' and God decided he was just a waste of time.

That must be why he's a musicial genius.

Correct. Prior to 'Raspberry Beret', Prince was never referred to as a 'musical genius.' Only a 'musical very smart guy.'

I suppose it didn't reach #1 because there is so much genius in that song, the public couldn't handle it.

No, I'm talking about the nursery-rhyme-typish songs which are relating to Raspberry Beret and Take Me With U. The type of immaturity to them if u know what I mean

Interesting. I don't know that I'd ever heard that.

I think "G-Spot" would have fit perfectly in PR. But "Darling Nikki" has superior musicianship.

M.C. (O.S.) G-SPOT & ELECTRIC INTERCOURSE

Ladies and Gentlemen -- please
welcome Prince!

F" is 4 frustration
I'm looking 4 what isn't really there
"I" is instigation
I'm listening 2 the voice beneath my hair
"N" is 4 the naked body
And 4 what my naked eye can see

CHORUS:
G-spot, G-spot
Where, oh where can U be?

"A" is 4 America
And 4 the things U read in magazines
"L" is 4 location
I am a clock, the time is 9:15
"L" is 4 the lust we share
We want 2 know the infamous pleasure

"Y" is 4 my yearnin'
Burnin' into mystery

The CLUB erupts in CRIES! Prince hits
the stage, launches into "G-spot," a
fast, high-spirited funk tune that gets
the crowd hopping. Vanity watches as
Prince whips the crowd into a frenzy.
Morris listens with a complacent grin on
his face, his eyes searching out various
members of The Time who are scattered
through-out the club. When he connects
with one of them he makes a series of
absurd faces which sends them into
hysterics. For Prince is playing music
that The Time is noted for, and, as far
as Morris is concerned, performs better.
Not everyone in the club is dancing, or
paying attention, and this does not
escape his notice.

Suddenly "G-Spot" comes to a rousing
end. The CROWD cheers wildly. Prince
moves quickly to the piano and launches
into "Electric Intercourse," a love
ballad which, as it progresses, becomes
a personal statement for Vanity and
Prince himself.

I feel some kind of love 4 U
I don't know your name
This is the kind of love that takes 2
I want U and I'm not ashamed

Cuz baby, U shock my wild
With a sexual electricity extraordinaire
Come and take advantage and undress me
I don't even know U, I don't even care

I feel some kind of sexual courage
Tell me do U feel it 2?
Our bodies wanna be 2gether
Girl, I wanna be with U

Electric is my body, baby
I'll shock U with my lips
Darling, don't U know
Your Technicolor climax is at my fingertips?
Hear me, baby

Electric intercourse, electric intercourse

Don't U wanna?
Electric intercourse, electric intercourse
Don't U wanna make love, sweet love, my love?

She listens intently, her eyes fastened
on him. The words have a profound
effect on her -- and the audience.
Without being consciously aware of it,
they're moving closer to the stage,
searching for their personal fix. Prince
surrenders himself to the music totally,
releasing from himself all that is
hurtful -- releasing the sincerity and
truthfulness that escapes him in his
daily life. We are entering realm
where life and music are inextricably
bound, and the impact on the performer
and listener is profound.

He's directing his music toward her, and
she receives it gratefully, almost
anxiously. It fills a void in her, hewn
by a life of meaningless promises. He
searches her face with his magnificent
eyes, and ends the song with a
heartrending cry which connects with the
souls of all present. Everyone is
paying attention now.

Mash it

Electric is my body, baby
I'll shock U with my lips (Yes I will)
Darling, don't U know
Your technicolor climax is at my fingertips
Baby, no no, listen 2 me

Electric intercourse, electric intercourse
Don't U wanna?
(I say this)
Electric intercourse, electric intercourse
(I say the first intercourse, I say the first one)
Don't U wanna make love, sweet love, my love?

Yeah

Electric intercourse, electric intercourse
Don't U wanna?
Electric intercourse, electric intercourse
Don't U wanna make love, my love, sweet love, yeah?

Don't U wanna?
Electric intercourse
Don't U wanna make love, yeah?

The stage is plunged into darkness. The
CROWD goes CRAZY! Vanity applauds
vigorously, wipes the tears from her
eyes. Morris, who was more affected by
the performance than he'd care to admit,
doesn't like what he sees and searches
for a winning line--

Yep, u're right! It was set to go in Electric Intercourse in the movie. I thought for the album it setup different and Darling Nikki replaced G-Spot?

No the 2 songs come in at 2 different times. G-Spot & Electric Intercourse are in the sways of puppy love, Computer Blue & Darling Nikki are the angry/revenge songs

Oh, OK! Damn, that's still was tight! Thanx on the info.
