The Prince/Willy Wonka Experience

I was listening to "Way Back Home" and I thought it kind of reminded me of another song. It then came to me that the song I was thinking of was in Charlie And the Chocolate Factory. I went to Youtube and typed in Willy Wonka song. The first song/video that came up was Willy Wonka (HD) "Pure Imagination" which I will need someone to post on here since I have no idea of how to. Here's where it gets very interesting - Follow the steps below for the Prince/Willy Wonka Experience.

1 - Have "Way Back Home" ready to play with no song coming after it.

2 - Adjust the volume on both songs so they are equal.

3 - Play "Pure Imagination" and at the 27/28 second mark, immediately after he says Count To Three, start "Way Back Home".

4 - This is a audio/video experience so be sure to watch the video of "Pure Imagination" while listening.

The end of "Pure Imagination" (which comes after "Way Back Home" has finished playing) is a very important part of the experience so be sure to listen all the way through.

Let me know what you think!

One thought led to another and it just happened. After I got the video up and listened, my first impulse was to start "Way Back Home" right after he says Count To Three. Did you watch it?

I've also noticed, that if you record the sound of a big fart than lasts 3:57, and swap it for "U Know" on AOA, it actually improves the album.

Ironically, the track 'Art Official Cage' sounds like the Oompah Loompah songs from the Johnny Depp version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Actually it works surprisingly well. Are suggesting Prince did this intentionally?

Edit: I'm liking this more and more. From now on I will always play Way Back Home together with Pure Imagination smile

It's clear when prince speaks he about any real issue he's speaking from a place of Pure Imagination.

Hey, I like Art Official Cage, but when I first heard it, the first thing that sprang to mind was the 'Violet Beauregard' song lol

That would be great. I wonder how many views it would have after a year?
