美國音樂鬼才巨星[王子]的B面佳作之一──合成放克曲──[Erotic City/情慾城市]

 

 

Ah, ah, ah, ah

Erotic City

Erotic City

All of my purple life

Ive been looking for a dame

That would want to be my wife

That was my intention, babe

If we cannot make babies, maybe we can make some time

Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive

We can fuck until the dawn, making love til cherrys gone

Erotic City cant you see, thoughts of pretty you and me

Every time I comb my hair

Thoughts of you get in my eyes

Youre a sinner, I dont care

I just want your creamy thighs

If we cannot make babies, maybe we can make some time

Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive

We can fuck until the dawn, making love til cherrys gone

Erotic City cant you see, thoughts of pretty you and me

All of my hang-ups are gone

How I wish you felt the same

We can fuck until the dawn (til the dawn) (until the dawn)

How I wish you were my dame (baby, wont you call my name?)

If we cannot make babies, maybe we can make some time

Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive

We can fuck until the dawn, making love til cherrys gone

Erotic City cant you see, thoughts of pretty you and me

Uh, whoa-whoa

Whoa-whoa

Whoa-whoa-whoa

Whoa-whoa

Whoa-whoa

Whoa-whoa-whoa

Whoa-whoa

Whoa-whoa

Whoa-whoa-whoa

Baby, youre so creamy

If we cannot make babies, maybe we can make some time

Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive

We can funk until the dawn, making love til cherrys gone (til the dawn)

Erotic City cant you see, thoughts of pretty you and me

If we cannot make babies, maybe we can make some time (you and me)

Some time, some time, some time, Erotic City

If we cannot make babies, maybe we can make some time

Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive

We can funk until the dawn, making love til cherrys gone (Come alive)

Erotic City cant you see, thoughts of pretty you and me

We can funk until the dawn, making love til cherrys gone

Erotic City

Ah, ah, ah, ah, Erotic City

 

 

 

 

1984年 6月 26歲的美國音樂鬼才王子(Prince)主演歌舞片〔Purple Rain/紫雨〕

票房鼎盛 

他並配合電影發行自寫自編自製的原聲帶(Paisley Park/Warner Bros.出版)

並與樂團革命(The Revolution)共同製作(雖然仍由王子主導)

單曲跟電影的成功讓原聲帶封王 蟬聯整整24週冠軍 至今在美國賣出13白金 全球兩千多萬張

將王子提升到麥可傑克森(Michael Jackson)一樣的歌壇天王地位

  

 

首支單曲〔When Doves Cry/當鴿子哭泣時〕大紅讓王子首度登上流行榜冠軍 英國榜#4

第二主打[Let’s Go Crazy]仍舊大紅, 登上美國流行榜冠軍(百萬金唱片) 英國榜#5

Let’s Go Crazy]的B面歌曲為[Erotic City/情慾城市] 並沒收在先前任何專輯

此曲由王子譜寫/製作成一首合成放克(funk), 節拍有勁

這也是歌壇新人席拉伊(Sheila E.)音樂錄音處女作, 她擔任副歌演唱

Erotic City]以內容涉及性而聞名, 歌詞提及‘fuck’字眼(we can fuck until the dawn

雖然一般人──特別是席拉伊──聲稱其實唱的是‘funk, 以致能在電台播放。

儘管沒在美國主流界主打, 仍因王子的人氣受到廣播強力放送

Erotic City]於[Let’s Go Crazy]的12寸唱片中並列為雙主打(增加副標題──Erotic City ("make love not war Erotic City come alive")在舞廳推出共同登上Billboard副榜──舞曲榜冠軍

1986年 [Erotic City]收在單曲[Girls & Boys]的12吋唱片中

1989/1990年則在德國發行3吋與5吋CD

1993年, 王子發行首張正式精選輯[The Hits/The B-Sides, Erotic City]也收在’The B-Sides ‘

這是王子的 B面歌曲佳作之一
