The Future est une chanson écrite, composée et interprétée par Prince, publiée sur la bande originale du film Batman. Il s'agit du titre d'ouverture mais aussi le dernier single extrait de cet album. Le single ne fut pas la version de l'album, mais une version remixée par William Orbit. La version standard de The Future a été publiée en Europe avec la version de l'album Electric Chair, mais en format Maxi 45 tours, Electric Chair fut aussi remixé par Orbit. Les textes parlent d'un avenir sombre, rappelant Gotham City…

"The Future" is a song from American musician Prince's 1989 Batman soundtrack, and the final single released from the album. The single was not the album version, but a remixed version by S'Express' Mark Moore and William Orbit. "The Future" was released as a single only in Europe. The standard European 7-inch single was backed with the album version of "Electric Chair", but on the maxi-single, "Electric Chair" was also remixed by Moore and Orbit. Moore and Orbit's remix of "The Future" is house-inspired, whereas Prince's original is minimalistic. Moore and Orbit substituted a muted, pulsating beat in place of the original elements of Prince's song. Moore and Orbit also removed Prince's original bassline, synthline, and snippets of sampled dialogue. This would be the last time Orbit would

The Future est une chanson écrite, composée et interprétée par Prince, publiée sur la bande originale du film Batman. Il s'agit du titre d'ouverture mais aussi le dernier single extrait de cet album. Le single ne fut pas la version de l'album, mais une version remixée par William Orbit. La version standard de The Future a été publiée en Europe avec la version de l'album Electric Chair, mais en format Maxi 45 tours, Electric Chair fut aussi remixé par Orbit. Les deux vinyles 12" remixés apportent peu aux versions originales de Prince que l'on peut entendre sur l'album Batman. Le remix de William Orbit de The Future est inspiré de la musique house, alors que la version originale de Prince est minimaliste et sinistre. Orbit a également supprimé la ligne de basse d'origine, la ligne de synthé et les extraits du dialogue de l'échantillon de Prince. The Future n'a pas rencontré le succès dans la pop ou dans les pistes de danse, les remixes de William Orbit n'ont pas bien été reçues et ont été classés seulement dans deux pays. Le single s'est classé à la 15e position en Suisse et 9e aux Pays-Bas. Electric Chair a été enregistré bien avant que le concept de l'album n'ait commencé, l'enregistrement a été interrompu en juin 1988. Malgré cela, la chanson s'inscrit pleinement dans le thème du film, et évoque la folie du Joker. La version LP de The Future comporte l'échantillon des cordes de Clare Fischer de son titre non publié Crystal Ball, et des échantillons des chœurs du groupe . Les textes parlent d'un avenir sombre, rappelant Gotham City…

Moore and Orbit's remix of "The Future" is house-inspired, whereas Prince's original is minimalistic. Moore and Orbit substituted a muted, pulsating beat in place of the original elements of Prince's song. Moore and Orbit also removed Prince's original bassline, synthline, and snippets of sampled dialogue. This would be the last time Orbit would work with Prince for several years. In most countries, neither "The Future" nor its B-side were a hit on the pop or dance floors. The single peaked at #9 in the Dutch charts. The LP version of "The Future" features the sampled strings of Clare Fischer lifted from the then-unreleased 1986 track "Crystal Ball", and samples the Sounds of Blackness choir. The lyrics speak of a bleak future, recalling the fictional DC Comics location Gotham City, and that it needs "spirituality that will last". "Electric Chair" was recorded well before the album concept had begun, being cut in June 1988. Despite this, it fits well into the theme of the film and evokes the Joker's madness. The track blends hard rock and funk with a loud, booming drum machine pattern, and aggressive bass and lead guitar wailing throughout. The bridge combines a funky, percussive bass line with a meshed guitar synth phrase. A raspy grunt from "Electric Chair" can be heard in the Underworld remix of William Orbit's "Water From A Vine Leaf" as well as some tracks from Underworld's Dubnobasswithmyheadman, perhaps owing to Underworld's Karl Hyde serving as guitarist at Prince's Paisley Park in 1989.
