And all those voices are Prince's apparently.

Nope, as far as I know that's just a rumour - Gruff bloke is Dez Dickerson (bass player in the revolution) and lady is Lisa Coleman (keyboard player). Allegedly the song was orginally recorded with Prince's lead vocal throughout with Lisa & Dez's lines as harmonies, but late in the recording process Prince decided to split them out.

Lisa is now doing the music for Heroes, along with her old mucker Wendy
