RIP Prince

This is one of my most cherished tracks that The Artist has ever composed in his life: Something In The Water (Does Not Compute) was recorded in 1982 (released on the "1999" album) and got a very melancholic, slow and quite a poignant reworking in 2013 at Montreux Jazz Festival, where the crowd went completely silent (a rare occurrence at any massive show of the Artist) and listened closely to a beautiful story of heartbreak, tragedy, misunderstanding between human beings and a sense of complete loneliness that never stops haunting certain creative minds (be it writers, poets, musicians, singers, painters) and many other human beings on planet Earth.

What would "Little Red Corvette" (from 1982's "1999" album) sound like if it was performed not by a passionate young man in his prime, but by a seasoned and an experienced veteran of the music realm? That's what this video project is all about: instead of what one would usually expect from a live performance of such a classic number, it actually turns into a really theatrical, colorful, mystical and an immersive, unifying experience (and a unique one at that) between the Artist and his loyal Purple Army. This is definitely one for the ages!

* Interesting fact: The Artist dedicated "Little Red Corvette" in memory of Denise "Vanity" Matthews during his Piano & a Microphone concert in Melbourne (it took place on the 16th of February, 2016).

Looking back at Prince's Batman soundtrack, six of the nine songs on the album appear in the movie.

• The Future - you can hear a portion of it during the opening scene where that family of tourists are trying to find out where they are in the city.
• Vicki's Waiting - the ending of the song plays in the background during the close up of the roulette game at Wayne Manor.
• Electric Chair - after Bruce meets Vicki during the party.
• Partyman - after Joker massacred everybody inside Flugelheim Museum.
• Trust - during Gotham City's 200th anniversary parade.
• Scandalous - an arrangement by Danny Elfman can be heard as soon as Bruce and Vicki talk to each other, right after Alfred lets her into the Batcave. And of course, it's the last song playing during the closing credits.

Anything else that I missed, or does that cover it?
