I HATE U....

I love this darn song!!! I can't get enough of it or the video!! I find it ironic that Prince did this song, and then considering what happened later on with him and M...it was almost like a premonition!!

Anyway, I never get tired of hearing it and have been playing it alot lately. My sister says "Ugh, I got so tired of hearing that song on the radio when it came out." So did it get alot play around your area? The video was always on BET, Prince looks extremely gorgeous in this video too. He is just too pretty for words! Love the outfit, the hair, all of it!

1 of Prince's best lyrics ever...

"I hate you so much I wanna make love"

Prince is GORGEOUS. I'm inspired. GOD is GREAT. Is there anything else to say? lol

I don't care what the song is about... I wasn't referring to what it inspired it. I was referring to how creepy it was that this song/video just happened to describe what happened with him and M in some regards. It was like a creepy premonition. There's another song of his that was like a premonition to what would happen with him and M. I can't remember which one it is though...

It's amazing how people try to read stuff into Prince's music, when the facts are a lot more interesting.

Prince doesn't hate Mayte. So your "creepy premonition" assumptions are a story only in your head, nothing based in reality, nor does it have anything to do with his and Mayte's divorce.

The song is written about his breakup with Carmen Electra, after she was found to be allegedly fucking Tony M. THAT is a lot more interesting that some fauxphetic nonsense.

It's my understanding that she was, in fact, fucking Levi Seacer Jr. and not Tony M.

I've always heard Tony M. shrug Either way, it'd a downgrade.

Levi was kinda cute around the prince days though. No rat-tail like during SOTT-Nude. Lost a bit of weight so he was looking smoove.

But it is kinda going backwards.

The video was not always on BET. Prince refused to give WB the video. On a side not, I'd much rather be tonk by Tony M than Prince, or Levi for that matter.

You mean that he cheated on her with Mani?

What an unpolite way of answering a piece of good advice.

It never fails: when someone posts weak stupid ideas they always use bold type and colours.

Like that would make their empty observations more consistent.

I use the same font on every post, even if I just say "I agree." So your analysis/advice was wasted, stupid, and unneccessary. You were trying to be an ass, I knew it, and answered you exactly like you deserved to be answered! So take you own advice. You don't like the font, click the back button. Simple as that.

Where did I actually say "Prince hates M?" I've never, EVER said that because I don't think he hates her. In fact I don't think he feels any which way towards her at this point it's been so long. To me the song is more about love than hate. But I was referring to the actual lyrics of the song, cheating, then splitting up, etc. Now how hard is this for you to comprehend?

Again...I KNOW why it was written!! Geesh..I said, wasn't it pretty weird that he sang a song about something that actually ended up happening with his wife that's in the video. No, it wasn't about her, they were together at the time. Duh! But look what happend to them, watching the video is creepy for me because it's like, he sang it about 1 woman, but it happened with another.

I absolutely love this song!! biggrin I have been listening to it repeatedly recently, can't get enough of it! In fact, I thought of posting about "I hate U" as well, because I wanted to say that I think this song has one of Prince's best vocal performances!!! The falsetto, along with his normal voice, plus his speaking voice ... I've been listening to this song on headphones - LOVE IT!!!! biggrin

You're right, sorry! My sister said that wasn't the video she was seeing back then, it was another one (TMBGITW?). But the song was always being played on our local station. I had told her M was in it, and she just said, "oh yeah, it was on all the time." (I wouldn't know, I was still in middle school back then so wasn't at home watching much tv). Then when she watched it today, she was like, "OH, I've never seen that." She isn't a Prince fan at all, but knows some of his song. She says she does remember the song being played like every hr bc she remembers that speaking to the judge part! And she says it drives her insane now that I play it so much because it she heard it so much before!!

OMG! Me too, I play it nonstop, I love the lyrics and his vocals are superb!! To me, it's one of his best songs ever, I put it in the top 10 probably!! And the video just adds to it, I've uploaded both of them to the pod and my phone, so I can listen to it nonstop!! This song and Electric Intercourse are on constant repeat with the songs/videos.biggrin
