the very start of "Dance Electric" Why does the beginning of "The Dance Electric" (Andre's version) sound like the needle on the record player dropped a second too late into the song? Couldn't he at least do a fade-in? I always wondered about this.

Very Purple Rain-type lyrics, along the lines of "Computer Blue" and "God" (of course).
Good morning children Take a look out your window Our world is falling It's almost time 2 go (Dance) Dance the Dance Electric The rhythm is love and love is blind Love your enemies There isn't much time, there isn't much time Look - our world is falling A rhythm-less house of blinded prophecy Hear our Master calling This isn't what He wanted us 2 be We got 2 dance the Dance Electric Listen 2 the rhythm of your soul Come on and dance the Dance Electric We better love each other, it's almost time 2 go Don't - it don't make U happy 2 give another someone your own smile Dance the dance electric Never mind your hatred, try a brand new style Dance the Dance Electric Listen 2 the rhythm of your soul U got 2 dance the Dance Electric We better love each other, it's almost time 2 go We... love... all... enemies Look - U're livin' in Babylon Makin', but not feelin' love at all When your youth is gone, when it comes 2 dawn A light of truth will shine and U will fall That's why U got 2 dance the Dance Electric Listen 2 the rhythm of your soul U got 2 dance the Dance Electric We better love each other, it's almost time 2 go See the light inside of us U're stuck in living, livin' life as bad Whatever U do, don't U let your life go without my love It's the only life that U will ever have Why don't U (dance) dance the Dance Electric?

I agree, the abrupt start is startling and kind of ominous. Goes well with the song.
The unreleased Prince-sung long version of this one is classic! Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

Oops, I missed the "associated artists" forum -- why's it on the bottom?!
DavidEye: you picked my least favorite tracks, lol. My favs are Lipstick Lover (12" is great), Satisfaction (12" especially), and Sweet Sensuality. PaisleyPark4: good answer. I see your point about the beginning. Back in the days of vinyl, I always felt like my needle jumped ahead. Harlepolis: yep, great Mad Max-style video. Been awhile since I seen it. Hope to see it again. Lammastide: I've heard Prince's orginal. Would've made a great addition to a Purple Rain 2 type of album, but clearly he wasn't headed that way. Andre got lucky with this one. Should've been a HUGE hit for him; though, it did bring him lots of attention. CinisterCee: you're right. I should've looked. Who'd think the associated artists forum would be at the bottom? This is a Prince site, right? EverlastingNow:  | |
