Well done. Love the level of detail you delve into in this video. Could be a thesis. Great excerpts and perfect narration. One for the Purple Archives. 💜
Batman is and will always be my favorite dc hero and prince has been my favorite artist since b4 i popped out the womb when my dad put me on to the batman soundtrack it deepened my love for both. Also one of my favorite albums is rave un2 the joy fantastic which is what originally had songs from batman and graffiti bridge. And learning about that made me fw prince more as an artist.
This was a great video. I absolutely love Prince. WayneTv it woyld be really cool if u made a video on Prince & his Purple Rain Era & George Michael & his Faith Era.
If I'm not mistaken, The Future was also recorded beforehand, & originally intended for the unreleased version of Rave im2 the Joy Fantastic.. which is partially why it has strings by Claire Fischer.
Just so we are clear: Prince’s Batman album was NOT underrated then in 1989, while it might be underrated now. That album sold millions of copies. Batdance was everywhere.
Ya know,it wasn’t so much he wasn’t as popular as he was earlier in the 80s,it’s the fact WB wasn’t certifying his album sales and basically lying about how much he was actually selling. There’s a reason he was given 250 MILLION dollars for “artist development “ in the early 90s,he basically threatened an audit and they payed him what they owed him. Purple Rain was at 15 million for years when it’s been closer to 30 the whole time. A lot of those albums that where just 3 or 4 times where actually 11 and 10 times platinum. There’s no way Batman is only double platinum,everyone had that album when I was a kid. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was diamond also. WB really was pure 4080.
Disappointed by this superficial coverage. How can you make a video about the Batman OST and not even mention Rave Unto the Joy Fantastic and other outtakes like We Got the Power, which was featured prominently in an unreleased Batman trailer and incorporated in Batdance?
Thank you for making this video! I loved Batman as a kid, and Partyman was my first introduction to Prince.

Oh man this is why I subscribed. I ❤️ this soundtrack growing up. Would dance all the time to it as a kid.
Prince was actually sampling on Sign O’ the Times

Is it Prince’s best album? No. Is it my favorite Prince album? Yes.
Insightful video, thanks!

Hey Wayne 🖤
Could you make a video about Miguel?
People definitely respected his craft, but didn't understand his personality.
I need love. and water. Definitely a joke!
I know I laughed.

Huge number-one album.... not underrated.
Sorry just do not see it with Prince at all - raspberry beret aside the rest leaves me totally bemused
