The song I'm currently hooked on right now is Electric Chair from the batman album.. man this is like the best song, am I the only one who loves the whole batman period. Prince just seemed like he was so fun and mysterious around this time :Smile: ...

I saw your friend first
That's who I danced with
All the time I was watchin' U
The music rocked us
Our eyes locked thus
Makin' us see a trippy picture shoo


Oh, if a man is considered guilty 4 what goes on in his mind
Then give me the electric chair 4 all my future crimes, oh!


U whispered something
It took my mind out
Like a G (G flat) major with the E in the bass
Your face looked so good
I wanted 2 touch your mouth
My brain is jackin' all over the place


Oh, if a man is considered guilty 4 what goes on in his mind
Then give me the electric chair 4 all my future crimes, oh!


Yeah, yeah {x2}


Let's take a drive, love
So we can make up our minds, love
2 commit the crimes of passion that sets us free
Me lovin' U, U lovin' me


Ow!
The electric chair!


I saw your friend first
That's who I danced with
All the time I was watchin' U (I was watchin' U)
The music rocked us
Our lives shocked us
Makin' us see a trippy picture shoo
I've got 2 have it! (Said I've got 2… yeah!)


If a man is considered guilty 4 what goes on in his mind (Guilty)
Then give me the electric chair 4 all my future crimes, oh!


U know I'm guilty, yeah? (4 all my future crimes, oh!)
I'm guilty, yeah! (4 all my future crimes, oh!)
And if U don't really love me! (Then give me the electric chair)
Ow!


The electric chair


Oh Playa'

It's just about being infatuated with the girl (Vicki Vale?)... and saying that the sexual thoughts he has are vivid to say the least...

"I saw your friend first.. that's who I danced with...
All the time I was watching you"

I strongly recommend you give the unreleased demo of 'Electric Chair' a listen - it's an extended version and it rocks!

.

I just located my Batman cd a couple of weeks ago and have been listening to it ever since...

:cool:The Batman CD is a good sountrack. Electric Chair is 1 of the best songs. I like it also.

Electric Chair

Love this song!!!

Anyone else got the cool round tin version? ... cost about the same as the normal CD but a bit unusual.

I think it's a great album. Some excellent examples of Prince's sense of humour 'I didn't know I was playing in a cathedral' and 'if it breaks when it bends' and 'let me stick the 7inch in the computer'.

This is my favorite song on the Batman cd.
Need to dig it out and listen again

The Future
Electric Chair
Vicki Waiting
Scandalous
Batdance

And, not to forget: Dance with the Devil

These tracks are priceless! They are all indeed so personal, mysterious and fun at the same time!

Good call DigitalLisa!

love this song.
best track on the LP.
& best jam from the Batman/GB era.

if you ever get a chance download the SNL performance from winmx. this version is *uckin awesome. also get the cd single of the future. it has a great remix of this song.

Yeah!'Electric Chair'+'Scandalous'

I agree!! I'm pretty hooked to the Batman era at the moment as well..

i'm not fond of Batman.big let-down after Lovesexy IMO.Like the single remixes though, which is odd for me.

the 'mark moore - william orbit' remixes need to be checked.

Ilove it !

I used to play that album all the time, I think it's time to dig it out again

LaLaLaHeHeHee said:

Oohhh...I got those too.

Usually when other people remix his songs, they aren;t very good...but those are an exception

IAM said:

Batdance drove me mad back then that's what really got me into buying and colect prince LPs...
