Sex Shooter

I have been working myself pretty hard, and I feel that's making me a boring person, in some regards. I don't really keep up with current events, or the newest video going around on the internet. I basically work, eat, sleep, drink, and play kickball every Tuesday (that's open for everyone).
At the Electric Fetus I talk about music all day, and it can be really draining at times. I think it does drain my checking account, if I don't set limits. Right now I'm on a speding hold. I don't want to buy anything, but I have still been buying somethings. I just bought a best of Guided By Voices a couple days ago, but I have been passing on all the usual fun stuff that I see on a daily basis.
One thing I couldn't pass on was this Apollonia 6 record that came through.




This record is in really good shape, and I have never seen it at a store before.
Like Rick James Mary Jane Girls, or the modernPussy Cat Dolls, Apollonia 6 was put together by Prince, or Jimmy Jam to sell sex. The group appeared in the film Purple Rain, and performed their song "Sex Shooter".

Since seeing Purple Rain, I have wanted to get my mits on a copy of Sex Shooter, and I finally did. Luckly the vinyl is in really great shape, and as an added bonus it only cost me $5.

sexy! Jared, I edited yr post to include the youtube video I just found of the song.

So, did Prince do a version of this song? At lease, why do I know that little synth riff...

Awesome.
Sexy.
I especially love how they maintain the same image and pretty much the same costumes in the film as on their record cover.
