If I was the dog and you was the cat

...baby, I'd show you where it's at!

I have nothing to say here except "La, La, La, He, He, Hee" kicks some serious ass.

Ow! Put your foot on the rock!

I'd love to see him do it live. Put that band through a hardcore funk workout. Make 'em earn that paycheck.

Listening to the extended version with headphones on is EXACTLY what prompted this thread in the first place!

I love both of the cat/dog songs, La la La He He Hee and Scarlet Pussy. I have no idea if the man would ever have a pet but he gets the feline/human qualities with precision. That bored little meow in Scarlet Pussy is divine. Great songs that I have not heard him perform. Has anyone else?

He did play portions of 'La, La, La, He, He, Hee' during 'When Doves Cry' on the SOTT tour. Dog barks n all...

The best example I've heard is on the Times In Sweden boot. Begins in When Doves Cry at about 2:20. Check it out. LLLHHH is definitely one of my Prince favs of all time.

Thanks a lot. But no Scarlet Pussy. Sigh. "Get that meow-meow off my leg!"

Great song. Surprising how many people weren't aware of the extended version for a long time (don't think that's the case these days).

IIRC, this was written and recorded on a dare by Sheena Easton.

Anyone else heard about that?

"Suh-LAMMIN'!!!"

Prost!

I've heard that story. She jokingly came up with the title and challenged him to build a song around it.

I'd say he did a pretty good job!

Is it on any official release because I think I have all of those? MODS...I'm really not asking for a hook-up, just for a point in the official direction.

The "single edit", or whatever, is on The B-Sides, yes. It is NOT the same song. lol Find a way to get the 12" version - I'm sure somebody can help you out. If they can't, we'll talk in orgnote.
