Girls & Boys

About Girls & Boys

"Girls & Boys" is a funky 1986 song by Prince, featured in the "Under the Cherry Moon" soundtrack. It was a UK hit, known for its catchy keyboard hook, live drums, and the debut of Eric Leeds on saxophone. The song, with lyrics about seduction and a brief rap by Prince, also includes French spoken by Marie France and background vocals by Wendy & Lisa, Susannah Melvoin, and Sheila E. Though not a US single, it's considered by some to be a stronger choice than "Mountains" for promoting the album. .
