Prince-&-The-Revolution - Purple Rain

"Darling Nikki" Is A Song Produced Arranged Composed And Performed By Prince And Originally Released On His Grammy Award-Winning Album Purple Rain 1984 . Though The Song Was Not Originally Released As A Single It Gained Wide Notoriety For Its Sexual Lyrics. Partly Because Of The Lyrical Content Of "Darling Nikki" Tipper Gore Founded The Parents Music Resource Center Which Eventually Led To The Use Of "Parental Advisory" Stickers And Imprints On Album Covers. Trinity Broadcasting Network And Jimmy Swaggart Both Attacked The Song As Being 'pornographic' And 'satanic'. The Song Is A Guitar-Driven Rocker Telling The Story Of A "sex-Fiend" Named Nikki Who Seduces Prince. The Song Was Directed Toward Apollonia Kotero In The Purple Rain Film When She Decided To Work With Prince's Rival Morris Day. The Song Has The Appearance Of Being Recorded Live In A Single Take Because Of The Gritty Nature Of The Guitar And The Live Drum Kit Though Purple Rain's Liner Notes State The Entire Song Was Performed By Prince. The Ending Of The Song Contains A Short Segment Recorded Backwards Over A Rain Sound Effect To Contain A Hidden Message. The Segment When Played In Reverse Is A Sharp Contrast To The Profane Song With A Chorus Singing "Hello How Are You? I'm Fine 'cause I Know That The Lord Is Coming Soon. Coming Coming Soon." During The Purple Rain Tour Performances Of "Darling Nikki" The Recording At The End Was Played But Not In Reverse. A Circulating Outtake Of "Darling Nikki" Contains An Instrumental Subdued Section In The Middle Of Keyboard Onslaught At The End Of The Song. Also It Does Not Have The Backmasking Segment Tacked On To The End Instead Prince Performs An Extended Hard Guitar Solo Devoid Of Any Other Instruments.
