On Episode 127 of the Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics Podcast, Jerry Bonner and I look to the stars for inspiration as we discuss the Prince and Sheena Easton duet, “The Arms of Orion” from Batman. This love ballad relies heavily on astrological metaphors, so join us in the Sea of Tranquility and stay for the playful keyboard outro.

On Episode 126 of the Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics Podcast, Karen Shedrick returns to the show to chat with me about the sexy, dangerous, and rockin’ “Electric Chair.” This Batman track gets into some sci-fi thought police territory as a song about the sin of lustful thoughts. Plus, it’s sung from the perspective of the Joker, so there’s a whole extra dynamic at play. Absolve your guilt with us and check out the episode.

On Episode 125 of the Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics Podcast, new podcast guest Joe Andrews joins me to talk about the opening song from the Batman album, “The Future.” Prince’s dystopian vision, sung from the perspective of the Dark Knight himself, sets the tone for the project with its stark electronic drum beat and foreboding synths. “I’ve seen the future, and it will be.”
