1. Mountains

   "Mountains" is a 1986 song by Prince and The Revolution, from the album Parade, the soundtrack to the film Under the Cherry Moon. It was written by The Revolution members Wendy & Lisa together with Prince. The extended 12" single version of the song runs ten minutes. It's the only track on the Parade album featuring the entire Revolution. It reached #23 in the U.S. but only #45 in the UK. The B-side was the instrumental "Alexa de Paris", one of the few tracks from this project featuring a guitar solo, and is one of a handful of instrumental tracks that Prince recorded in the 1980s. Both songs appear in the film Under the Cherry Moon, with the video for "Mountains" playing as the credits roll. The version shown on MTV to promote the single was in color as opposed to the film's black-and-white version. Like many Prince songs, "Mountains" focuses on Christian motifs.

   It's not at all easy to be an Eagle, and that too a Royal Eagle. The Royal eagle doesn't live in the King's palace, but instead he prefers the highest peaks of mighty mountains. The Royal Eagle always welcomes the violent winds, which blow with the highest energy only to make him fly higher and higher, to far greater heights each time. You are an Eagle, truly the Royal Eagle. You must welcome the violent winds and the storms, especially when your ocean is becoming devoid of any turmoil. And most importantly, you must fly high, always! You must soar, fearlessly in the open sky - because that's your true character. Spread your strong wiings and soar, Royal Eagle!
