It stands to note Brownmark's "Bang Bang" is on there, as well as an almost hour long behind the scenes of that shoot. Plus 90 seconds of "Scandalous", which he also directed.

PrinceVault says he never did perform it live. Interestingly, it dates to 1986, and was tracked a couple of days after Camille was done. It's that weird in between time of Parade stuff, then the oncoming SOTT. I would have like to seen him do this live as well. It's still socially relevant.

I think an artist like Pink, Jill Scott, or a male like The Weeknd doing it today would be quite an interesting thing to have on radio. And stay with me on this - it actually sounds like something Depeche Mode could do. Think about it - heavy sound, a monotone voice who once sang "Personal Jesus" making a socially conscious song. Hell, they could go the KLF route, and have Patti re-sing some of her parts (the way KLF had Tammy Wynette on "Justified and Ancient").

Wow. I don't think I've ever seen this video. What a powerful message. Thanks for sharing, Latin.

i can't wait for a full good quality version of Prince's demo comes out. this is a great song

I absolutely love this song. I never had heard it until after Prince passed and I think it was Camille Paglia who mentioned it in an article in April , which lead me to it. It's such a powerful song. Thank you for the link!

This is the remix without Prince's vocals and instumentation. The original is much better.

Never heard this song before. While it might be a great song, I only listened to it up to the point where the incest incident. That's enough for me. Sorry.

It's a heavy song, but was a single and minor hit for Patti. I remember buying the cassingle. "I Can Fly" was the b-side, and I loved that song, too. Prince's version is floating around out there, and it's pretty much the same.

Great! Thank you, Latin!

Rice has a lot of Prince/Paisley related stuff on that account. Heaven Must Be Near, an Ingrid Chavez press kit, Time Waits for No One, Thieves in the Temple, etc...

. I'd like to know who all appears in that video. Do I see Eric Leeds? Is that P guitar-dancing to her right? Who's on drums? This is a slightly different version than the album cut, where P's background vocals are more prominent.

No Prince is not in the video. That's not Eric Leeds either. It's part of the NPG hornz though. That's Brian and Cathy, and I don't know the 3rd guy.
