Baby I'm A Star: Noticed something With the Syracuse reissue I've been watching various live versions of BIAS (the official video, the 1985 Grammy's etc.)..... and I realized something or finally sunk in.... . . Prince "officially" starts the song with his high pitch scream by cutting off the previous measure in half. . . If you count in from the intro part 1 (just the drums) and then the part with the keyboards and the backwards vocals, then he counts in 1-2-3-uh...... during that vamp, if you keep counting he actually does the little scream on what would be 3 of the measure, but instead he's kinda cut that measure off and now the song is going from the scream being the new "1". If that makes sense. . . Not that it matters but it always through me off a bit when I was rocking out to it and now I know why [Edited 6/23/22 18:10pm] ![]() | |

Yeah, I don't think he was counting 4 bars at a time. It was more looking for whatshername's band to get on stage, then just wait for the next downbeat on the Linn to come up, and get into it. " ![]() | |

Yes it is. And Sheila's band is already on stage in that video cuz they were already there for IWD4U. . . It's also on the studio version on the PR album. ![]() | |

I also noticed that Wendy & Brownmark change places and microphones after the third verse of "big ol' ears." They run back into place before the chorus again. " ![]() | |
