For the low low price of $490,000, you can purchase a real songwriting credit for Prince’s first solo single, “Soft and Wet.” Chris Moon, a record producer and former owner of the Minneapolis studio where Prince recorded his first demo tape, is offering up his percentage of the “Soft and Wet” songwriting credits via eBay, the Star Tribune reports. “I have enjoyed hearing the song countless times over the years, been paid well and am proud of it,” Moon wrote in his listing. “It has achieved everything and more for me so I feel it is time to pass the torch to a Prince fan who will continue to cherish and enjoy owning it as much as I have.” “Anyone who buys this probably shouldn’t be doing it for financial purposes,” Moon told the Star Tribune. “It’s more about owning one of the most unique collectibles ever related to Prince.” Moon admitted that he made more money off the song when MC Hammer sampled it on his own “She’s Soft and Wet” in 1990.
