Feel U Up (85’ Mix) Only came across this today. It appears to have been done on 15 April 1985 at Sunset Sound, so around the period a lot of the Parade tracks were worked on. Would fit on a Parade deluxe, may be. https://princevault.com/i...=Feel_U_Up There may or may not be something coming! | |

He's always clearly singing "Fill You Up". Welcome to "the org", laytonian… come bathe with me. | |

Wasn't one of the circulated mixes created, with creative liberties, from the multis by someone who had access to them (of many...) and that's why it sounds the way it does? [Edited 7/26/22 4:53am] | |

Do you mean the version with just P and drums? Slight echo in the lead and background vocals? | |

I'll have to go back and listen... I think that's the one | |

If so, I didn't know that version was sourced from a multi. I always assumed it was done from some program.

[Edited 7/26/22 4:53am] The entry in Duane’s book for 15 April 1985 indicates a mix and an instrumental version of Feel U Up were done by Coke Johnson as a sort of audition before being taken on by Prince. Whether the version I heard (and which seems to be on a well known video sharing site) is the one done by Coke or is someone’s creative liberties version, I don’t know. There may or may not be something coming! | |

The mix that's been linked here with drums and Prince vox is the 1985 mix. Sourced from a cassette intended for either a friend or the WB vault. There's no multis for this song among collectors (at least not among any of the collectors that would let a mix of said multis leak) usually known as "Leaped7689" | |

https://pressrewind.net/2...-u-up/amp/ On Episode 135 of the Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics Podcast, Aisha Staggers & I talk about the lyrics to Prince’s sex-pest anthem, “Feel U Up.” This long-gestating track dates back to late 1981 and was intended for the abandoned 1986 Camille project before finally finding a home as the B-side to Batman’s “Partyman.” May be an anthology of Prince’s “sex pest anthems” could be the next release, there’s quite a few. There may or may not be something coming! | |
