DEF: Apollonia 6 “Sex Shooter”

On this date in 1984, while Prince was reaching a peak position of number 2 on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart with “Purple Rain” from his film of the same title, another song from the film was also peaking on the chart. Apollonia 6, a vocal trio featuring Apollonia Kotero, who played Prince’s romantic interest in the film, climbed one notch to a peak position of number 85 with their song “Sex Shooter.” The song was the group’s only appearance on the Hot 100.

“Sex Shooter” by Apollonia 6 is today’s Daily Eighties Flashback.
