Is There A Backwards 'Occultic' Message 2 Darling Nikki? After listening to Darling Nikki a few times, I wonder how did this song make it to Purple Rain, especially when Irresistible Bitch is far more superior and it would've been a hit single during that period. My question is, is there a hidden occultic message in Darling Nikki? This song seems so out of tune, so dark and just totally out of place. Apples did none of what he song about. Does anyone have any insight on this?

I'm sorry, but this is one ridiculous thread. There's no backwards occult message in this song.
Oh, and Prince didn't worship Satan during this period, or any period of his life.

This thread...................................................................................
Anyway, I said this in a different thread but IDK why people are tripping over the metaphors used in the song Darling Nikki. Its a song written for a movie. It's fiction. Go with it. | |

Irresistible Bitch had already been released, as the b-side to LPWM, so unlikely that it would appear on the next album.
There's a couple big long ass threads about Darlin' Nikki and the "occult", use the search feature and you might find some stuff that interests you.

802, you are wrong, this isn't a rediculous thread and google can not answer everything. In fact, Google sometimes reference this site as a source. You don't know what Prince has done in his life because you don't know him. No need to be defensive about this question, it's a legitimate question. Explain this cloak then . . .

It's glittery pajamas and he was a good mood that night. We know Prince DID NOT do suits and ties but of course wanted to dress how he wanted to dress , no matter if occassion is important or not, which was mostly opposite of what people expected . One of my fav. ceremony outfits of his by the way Yes, at 19, I finally saw the Revolution, a legendary band. And I talked to Wendy!!! In addition to seeing Prince, I have now lived life. Thank you Purple People!! | |

From http://www.songmeanings.n...iew/92279/
"I think that this song is an intentional jab at the Moral Majority. I don't feel that this song is about having sex with a hooker. In truth, I believe that Nikki is the Devil. Old Nick is one of Satan's nicknames. The singer signs on the dotted line to seal the contract on his soul. What he is selling it for is unknown - maybe just an amazing sexual experience? However, "my body will never be the same," makes me think that he sells his soul for some physical change or attribute, and that the sex is either a bonus to the actual transformation, or else a a metaphor for the change.
Also there's the question why you can hear laughter after the so-called backward message in "Darling Nikki" ??
One could interpret "the lord will come soon" also in a sexual way, then it would be a highly blasphemous statement!
Why is he talking about the "lord" and not "god" in this particular line..... ??? Whats the intention of the laughter????
Purple is the color which stands for royality - and in esoteric circles it is referred to as the colour of "Old Nick" himself.... So could "Purple Rain" actually mean "Purple Reign" ????

The Devil put it on there! He was sitting with Prince when he was putting the songs in order on PR and Prince said, "Ya know Satan, I need one more song, something dark, out of tune, and most of all occultic." Satan stands up and pulls out an 8-track he had in his man-purse and said, "Here, it's not as occultic as my usual stuff, in fact, I'd characterize it as semi-occultic." Prince loved the song, mostly for the references to devices, having just bought a food processor, betamax vcr and a set of curb-feelers. Prince then said, "but Satan, there's no references to fruits or vegetables on here!" Satan replied, "I know, that's because Apples did none of what you'll sing about. Oranges maybe. And don't even get me started about cumquats."In the end, the song caused Tipper Gore to buy more apples and that started the war in Grenada. It's all a conspiracy. | |

Whenever you bring up something that seems slightly negative about Prince. Prepair for the stoning. Don't like what you see turn the channel. | |

I don't understand why people can be such twatnudgers on this site. A question is just a question, stop getting a genital rash over it, damn. A strawberry mind, a body that's built for 2. A kiss on the spine, we do things we never do. | |

Thanks for the reply silkylee. For the record, I am an admirer of the Purple Yoda similar to most and all of you. However, I do have a right to question what appears to be suspicious. He isn't Christ. I think that it's healthy to question the celebrities that we place on a mantle. I refuse to drink the purple kool-aid and go along just to get along. I'm intimidated by no one. . . There will be no cyber bullying here. Jason | |

Then why dont you post about substance and not abut sillyness as if Prince was using occult symbolisms etc. How old are you, 12? You know god dang well there is no occult stuff on it. You dont know about the backwards amsking at thsi point. Pfft. Its a public message board so expect to get comments. | |

If you cant see it then i would suggest you get yourself some books about these topics instead of playing the expert on something you obviously have no clue about "ohYeeeeeah" said: I'm a massive Bowie fan. Even on Scary Monsters, I always skip Fame ... | |

I don't know about 'occultic' messages, but I'm pretty sure if you listen really close you'll hear someone saying 'you big dummy!' over and over.
Not in the song, though.
