OUW-WA? Isn't that more like, "you-wa" minus the letter y?

Ouch is pronounced how?
I asked Prince what he was planning to do. He told me , I'm going to look for the ladder. I asked him what that meant. All he said was, sometimes it snows in April. - book D.M.S.R.

Every single one of them. Love it!! But I can't do it myself. Mine sounds terrible! I always want to make the sound and mine is not good. Not at all. Lol

Yeah all of them for me. That's my my notification tone on my phone. What's funny is when I'm listening to any Prince song say in the car and my phone goes off it just fits like it should be in that song.

Favourite - the Aowahh! on We can funk (Original 1986 version), and performed one is the Saturday night live performance of Gett Off, Prince does three of them in a row.

Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name

It's your thread anyway. Spell it how you want to.

Actually I realised, it is was the Arsenio Hall show September 1991, where Prince the NPG were just kicking ass on stage.

delirious track..cause that where it all started


Nope. The opening of "Sexuality" predates that.

IMO, there's a scream-y lyric in "Sister" that is the preface to the OWWA! scream he's sorta known for. "Oh motherfucker, she's a motherfucker, can't U understand?" is the line.

But... there's also a slight bit of this in "Gotta Stop (Messin' About)", which predates Controversy album (which was released at the end of 1981; GSMA was released in the spring). For me though, it's "Sexuality". It's so bold and brash.

Since we're going there lol , I hear a proto version of it in Head as well, 4:27. I'm calling it! hammer
