Dirty Mind (Prince song)

"Dirty Mind" is the follow-up single in the U.S., and title track to Prince's third album, released in 1980.[2] The song is built around a keyboard riff created by Doctor Fink, which dominates the song. The demo-like song lacks a chorus, and is a stark departure of the smooth R&B sound of Prince's first two albums. The lyrics concern sexual thoughts, which are fairly representative of the other songs from the album. The single's B-side is the ballad "When We're Dancing Close and Slow", from the previous year's Prince. "Dirty Mind" reached number sixty-five on the soul chart.[3] Along with the tracks "Uptown" and "Head", "Dirty Mind" reached number five on the dance chart.[4]

Not to be confused with Dirty Mind (The Pipettes song) or Dirty Mind (Shakespears Sister song).
