Prince’s “Batdance,” the lead single from his 1989 soundtrack album for Tim Burton’s Batman film, is a wildly eclectic funk-rock track that mashes up samples from the movie—including dialogue like “Oh, I got a live one here!” and references to characters like the Joker and Vicki Vale—with Prince’s signature grooves, synthesizers, and chaotic energy, creating a danceable anthem that topped the Billboard Hot 100. The song’s repetitive chorus famously urges listeners to “Get the funk up!” in a high-energy call to action, but according to production details, the original lyric was actually “Get the fuck up!” before being toned down for release, adding a layer of rebellious attitude that aligns with the Dark Knight’s gritty vibe.
