The album version opens with a sampled line of dialogue by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Caan James Caan] as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonny_Corleone Santino 'Sonny' Corleone] from the 1972 movie ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Godfather The Godfather]'' (a movie also sampled on [[Eleven]] and [[Sixteen]]). The chanted opening to the extended '''The Paisley Park Remix''' is the first use of vocals (other than sampled) to be used on a [[Madhouse]] track. Other than the similarity in numbering and in music style, [[Thirteen]] is not related musically to the single b-side [[Thirteen And ¼]]. |
