Eeriest Point in a Prince Song

The crazy guitar distortion at the end of the full version of Computer Blue has to be the weirdest ending to a Prince song. It's like he was rocking so hard that a 1950s alien spaceship abducted him and he started talking to them with his guitar. The way it fades in and out is insane. eyepop

Others Here With Us is pretty creepy. Especially the intro.
"does my cock look fat in these jeans?"

That's the winner for me. It reminds me of the Alien whoops in Pitch Black. Very creepy on good quality phones, by yourself in the dark.. I dare you lol

Others here with us, yes.

I find the melody in Empty room and Moonbeam levels eerie in a different, gut wrenching kinda way. Also, Electric Intercourse has that same ethereal, other worldy feeling that hits me in the middle. Niceness.

Not necessarily "the eeriest", but that one isolated hand clap sound on "Question Of U" that sounds like it was the result of haphazard editing does come off as eerie to me.

Yes, Others Here with Us. I love that he used distorted human screams as the basis of the song. The creepy giggle is nice tough, too. It sounds like the perfect title and song for a psychological horror film.
