Prince's "Wooo!"s in songs...

Strange topic, but I notice how Prince loves to layer his vocals singing "Woooo!" at just the right time. Trying to get a list of such songs. He does it:

-At the beginning of AnotherloverholeInYoHead
-The beginning of Billy Jack Bitch
-The end of Lolita
-The beginning of Ther'll Never Be Another Like Me

I know there's more... I'm trying to be the Rain Man of useless knowledge so help me out org 😎

My brain seems tired right now but I have a few faves. I can literally picture him saying it and can't think of them at the moment. Will give this a better consideration after some sleep wink

Dance where y'are, just groove y'all.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

In my favourite part of The Beautiful Ones (when he loses it) there are a couple of short wooh's

.

I may not know where I'm going babe Wooh!
I said I may not know what I need
One thing, one thing's for certain baby
I know what I want, yeah
And if it please you baby
Please you, baby
I'm begging down on my knees
I want you
Yes I do
Baby, baby, baby, baby
I want you Wooh!

.

Wow... (that's just me lol)

Um, when does he say this line in 1999? It doesn't sound familiar.

It's at the 5:05 mark on the album version. I've only heard it about a million times but looked up a lyric site online and its saying "work it down to the ground" - not convinced it's that hmph! - I like my lyric better and sticking with it razz
