DISSOLVE TO:

Rachael arrives to record more tracks for the album.

RACHAEL: (comes in with Michael)

PRINCE: There's the girl with the golden voice! (notices Michael) Annnd you brought a guest...

MICHAEL: Hi Prince, I hope it's okay that I came. I just haven't seen her a lot since she started recording.

PRINCE: Whatever. Wanna hear the duet we did?

RACHAEL: (to herself) "Michael's gonna love this......"

MICHAEL: Sure! I'd love to hear it.

PRINCE: (plays the song)

MICHAEL: I like that, what's it called?

PRINCE: Well, we each did a separate version, but I call this one, The Beautiful Experience.

MICHAEL: I like that name, what about the solo stuff she did this morning?

PRINCE: (smiles widely) Oh, she did one I know you will just love! (plays My Body Keeps Changing My Mind)

RACHAEL: (to herself) "Shhhhiiiiiiiitttttt..."

PRINCE: (smirks)

MICHAEL: Well, I love the groove of it!

RACHAEL: (to herself) "Either he genuinely likes it, or he hates it and he's too nice to tell me. I'm not sure which."

PRINCE: So, you ready to record?

RACHAEL: Yes... What songs?

PRINCE: All Because Of You, Remember When Lovin' Took All Night and Still Crazy After All These Years. We're gonna do between three and four songs a day til this album is ready to be released.

RACHAEL: Ok. I need a bottle of water though, I sound like shit.

PRINCE: Wait... I got an idea, I remixed Cherry Bomb months ago to make it more rock influenced. I want you to try it with that voice. The rasp would be perfect.

RACHAEL: Prince, I sound like shit. I don't wanna sing like this.

PRINCE: Just try it out.

RACHAEL: Fine. (goes into the booth) (the song starts) (starts singing) Can't stay at home, can't stay at school. Old folks say, "ya poor little fool."
