If Prince was to create a song out of your Org name...

...can you describe what you think it would sound like and how might Prince use it e.g. as an album song, one off single, advert jingle for Jamba Juice, perhaps his own third wedding theme suite, or an anthemic freedom from the slavery of organised religion. It could be anything. It is upto you to think of what is conjured up by your Org name.

---------------------------------

For example: Spirit Otter. I believe this would form the basis of a song title on a compliation album (like Crystal Ball) by Prince, but not be utilised as the album title itself (as it is a little esoteric, even for Prince). I am guessing the "Spirit" would be utilised in a call and response ode between the Darth Vader voice a la The Rainbow Children and the more uplifting "spirit" a la Martika's song. The melodic groove, however, would be similar to the one-off single, P.FUNK, but mixed heavily with an arrangement and structure similar to Batdance, and heavier on spiritual/gospel themes interwoven throughout as well as his infamous Scandalous-style harmonised vocals, descending towards the end with weird off-key helium elements a la the second half of Breakfast Can Wait and animated creatures a la Song Of The Heart. The song would principally be created and used for a Disney animated movie. It would unfortunately be universally criticised by the old hardcore Prince fan community as an imitation of the Batdance song and purpose, but defended staunchly by an active new group of Prince fans as a return to his former Camille-esque genius (naturally, it was the song, Spirit Otter, and movie by the same name that introduced these fans to Prince; they are a young demographic between 11 to 18 years of age). Outside of the confines of the Prince community, the anthem would form an indelible part of every child's Disney's memories growing up. You can even hear them singing it already..."Spiiiirrrriiiit". The song would chart at No. 1 on the Charts and become Prince's biggest selling single to date. In a rather different contractual arrangement, Lucas/Spielberg would own the master tapes of the song.

---------------------------------

Your turn...

Mine would be easy. Maybe a bit after "breakfast can wait". I mean, it's all fun but... Sometimes you just need a break, you know?

Would be a funny song for sure, one of those you don't have to take too serious.

Mine song would be called 'In A Large Org With No Love'

verse would go something like this...

"Dan dropped a dime on his girfriend, said he didn't wanna go to jail alone"

Then something about being stoned would be in the next line.

Dan The Man. cool

Something moody like dorothy parker, with 'oh Nina B will u play with me' in there somewhere. Yeah, that sounds pretty lame actualy.

If he ever did, I hope it would be a love ballad with a searing guitar solo infused in it and at the end.

Sigh. heart

Haha, well seeing as quite a few of us have taken our org names from his songs it's a bit of a redundant question for many!

You can call me CeeCee Crowd Control

Take off your clothes - 319

OK, so I was CeeCee way before Screwdriver came into being, but as CC are my initials it's good to hear him sing them!

then we'll try to imagine... what silence looks like
