Just been listening to "The B sides" ( it's raining again here in Paris).

I love Erotic City but isn't the silly voice a bit ....well, silly???

No.

The debut of the Spooky Electric and Camille voices.

Hmm, not really...more Pinky and Perky.

Everything in this song is pure geniality.

Erotic City is a masterpiece and the pitched voice is inspired.

Insipired by the pitched voices of Parliament/George Clinton!

I know one thing... if someone makes a thread talking "Let's Work" was boring, I think they should all trash the thread forcing it to close! Real talk.

Er, if you had actually read the posts you would see it wasn't a hate thread!

I repeat, I love the song...I was just questioning the wisdom of the Pinky and Perky voice ( and yes, Joyin, I do realise this is showing my age! )

However what I DO hate is people who read what they want to read in a post and then start ranting.

Chill!

I just want to know though why you called it "pinky and perky".

This should help with the above question.

Enjoy!

I think it's a crime that Pinky ( or was is Perky??) never got a credit on the song.

I commented jokingly that Alvin and the Chipmunks should've kicked their asses. I never knew about this. Sounded like Donald and Daisy Duck if they sang lol that was a little creepy though, I have to be honest.

Obviously if you love Erotic City the voice couldn't be that ... em ... silly.

I think "Lovesexy" is one of his funkiest songs of the 80's. It got lost in the shuffle somehow. The bass, the drums and the horns are infectious. Don't hate the haters, they're just expressing their opinions. We KNOW differently.

Add to that Jam On It by Newcleus...a huge hit around Sheila E.'s hometurf.

Personally I don't think PInky and Perky are getting enough credit here!

I kinda hear the similarities to Erotic City at 2:06 - 2:17 and thats about it - however those 11 sec definitley sound like where he got some of his inspiration! interesting...
