Game with "When doves cry" Sample

Hello everybody,

When Steve was still a little Stevie, I played a game which had a tune in it from the Prince song "When doves cry".
In this video, the tune starts at 19 seconds and is repeated until 34 seconds when Prince starts singing: [ Show youtube player ]

I cannot, for the life of me, remember what that game was called or what type of game it even was

Are you sure you are confusing this for Fine Young Cannibals and You Drive me Crazy, which is on the front of Interphase?

No mate, that is a completely different tune.

I think it was a very brief sample used in a PD game, maybe played when you died. It wasn't the AMFM disk as i never saw any of those BITD.

I've been pondering about this. I believe it was some kind of pinball game. The "when doves cry" tune basically played all the time (or was part of the overall music) and when the ball hits one of those round bumpers, it said "peddestal peddestal" or something similar.
I aksed a friend of mine, who had an Amiga 500 too back in the day and he vaguely knows what I mean. He goes "yeah yeah I know what you mean, but can't remember the name". I remember it being an addictive game.

This has the potential to break the record that the Beasts and Bumpkins name the game thread set
