The 3Ms, Music, Message, and My take on the site Message First of all, I'd like to say... (though I'm not sure as of yet, as to the has any relevance) ...I'd like to point out that it appears that most folks interestingly enough first checked out Mplssound album (yep, I still call em albums) and then LotusFlower and then lastly Elixer. Kind of like reading a book from right to left. (as opposed from reading from left to right as we tend to do in the english speaking states) As I said, I'm not sure that it has any relevance as of yet but ... but ironically ... that's the way it went.

I enjoyed reading your post...The first Prince line that came into mind was..."I needed someone with a quicker wit than mine, Dorothy was fast."

If it helps me to become a better Prince fan.... I'm in now what... do you have a diagram? Cool. You rock. btw.... I would like to add a couple more comments on a couple of the graphics within the site before we start talking about the tracks song by song. If that's cool with you? I think you'll begin to see .,.how there is a pretty awesome theme all through the site., from one album to the other. And of course if you have anything you want to add ...while we go through it song by song... then by all means share it with us I'll try to post more later tonight. sorry I took so long to get back. peace A Lady never schemes, whines or begs, and a Real Man Never make her.

What I know about the consellation "Orion," is based on the greek god that was in search of or(hunted) the 9 muses, which are all goddesses of the arts. Self expression in any artistic way is definitely the brighter aspect of living. I guess your post was just random thought about driving your own life...and all I can think of is Prince singing, "Lady Cab Driver, let me take you around the world"...And I would reply, as I'm sure U would, "sure honey, can I have the keyz Pleaze." LOL You Are Quick! I like that,Tame. BTW, that was funny ... "can I have the keys, please" lol Yeah, your right. I veered off the road for a minute .... talking about my own life....just thinking outloud. Then *click* ... had to jump back to the topic. I had to laugh at myself, with the women drivers comment. I like what you had to share about the constellation Orion. I was not aware of the 9 muses correlation to Orion, but that's very interesting. However, I have to make a correction (I think) tell me what ya'll think ...of this; I was sitting outside last night relaxing ... star gazing and *click* I realized that these planets represented on the site are actually the Handle of the Big Dipper. Which still can be seen in the east just before dawn. The eyes in the handle of the Big Dipper are the LotusFlow3r and MplsSound albums.... respectively, placement wise. If that makes any sense. So ... I may have been mistaken on the Orion belt thing, but it still keys in conceptually speaking. there is more. I've heard it said somewhere here on this site ... that the graphics presented on the LotusFlow3r album were taken from the video game Myst. I don't have time to play video games much these days... though I do like them, however, I'm not convinced. I looked up the video game Myst online and I didn't see it. I didnt see a connection. What I did see, was an image that to me has more to do with Zen, meditation, and overcoming injury to the soul. And soul healing. The music speaks to these concepts as well, in all three of the albums. The rise of the human spirit ... overcoming oppression and obstacles. A lot of things are being presented for us to drink in... at the risk of being reduntant. I will elaborate more about how I came to that conclusion later. (on the graphics representing overcoming soul injury and suffering, as opposed the video game Myst.) Peace and stay funky.....

Ok Tame, and everybody else here, I'm having some issues posting here. So, try try again and lets see if the system will let this post this time. Tame If my response (the one I just wrote and attempted to post) shows up a second time, please understand ... the system here was fighting me... on posting. lol. anyway... to re-iterate what I tried to post a few moments ago ... First of all.,.. your very quick witted! I like that. You rock. I thought your comments on the belt of Orion were very interesting. I confess I was unaware of the 9 muses involved, but that is an excellent observation and certainly food for thought. However, I also must confess that last night ...I was sitting outside ..relaxing, star gazing ...looked up and realized, *click* that's not the belt of Orion represented in the site, I think I was mistaken there. I think the three planets on the site are actually representing the handle of the Big Dipper. Look carefully, and consider with me if you will; The eyes of the Big Dipper are in the same placement as the LotusFlow3r and the MplsSound albums. Which is pretty deep... and somethin to kick back and trip on. However, conceptually speaking, and literally, the Big Dipper can still be seen upon the eastern horizon ...just before and during dawn. So in that light, it still accurately represents.. the New Day concept I would also like to add this. I have read somewhere on this site where someone thought that the images on the LotusFlow3r were taken from the video game Myst. I do like video games personally, but I don't have time to play them anymore...I have never played Myst before anyway. But I was not convinced tthat the pics on the site were meant to dipict the video game Myst. It seemed to me to have more to do with Zen, soul injury, suffering and overcoming it. Prince is the Red or some say Purple comet coming into the planet I have a reason for saying this. But that will have to come later...as we anaylize the site. The message in many of the tracks on all three albums also seem to speak to the concept of this kind of thing. Even the instrumental track of 77 Beverly Park... speaks volumes without actually speaking, in my humble opinion. but more on that later. in the meanwhile, tell me what you think ... about belt of Orion represented on the site as opposed to the handle of the Big Dipper. Peace A Lady never schemes, whines or begs, and a Real Man Never make her. Such as these are unbecoming to both. | |

We must remember that the site is still new and it really is a work in progress so lets not be too judgemental as prince fans and see it for what it is supposed too be a new journey that he wants to share with everyone of his true fans. who waits for each new project but make the mistake of compareing with the old. keep it funky! | |

The hourglass just hung and hung and wouldn't key in. So I'll try it again. I am making an assumption. However, the assumption is not completely unfounded. There have been several in this space that have made that statement. Perhaps you'd like to take an unofficial poll? peace A Lady never schemes, whines or begs, and a Real Man Never make her.

I hear ya there on the site still being new...and a work in progress. As we all are a work of art still in progress. IMHO. You mentioned a 'new journey that he wants to share'. Cool. and you mentioned not making the 'mistake of comparing the old'. Okay. Again ... Cool. Try this on for a test drive. Look at the Pyramids on the Lotus planet. I'm sure you've noticed the garden atmosphere overlay ... with the green leaves, right? Why do you think that is? How many song lyrics can you link that to? Want to give it a try? You first. Then I'll tell ya what I think. I already touched on it a bit..., in a previous posting. Which ... I didn't realize at the time...but now .. I'm thinking it may have more to do with it than I previously realized. peace. A Lady never schemes, whines or begs, and a Real Man Never make her. Such as these are unbecoming to both. | |

In a world where we are constantly being spoonfed bullshit, it's nice to know that there are still people questioning it's validity.

Lotus2unfld said: On the Crimson and Clover video,
I don't pretend to understand what the idea between Crimson and Clover actually means. However, Crimson = red = passion, and Clover = green= peace or peaceful. 'fields of clover... passion and luck ? possibly? Maybe all of the above, but I'm inclined to go with the first take for now... the passion and sense of peace. "What a beautiful feeling" the song says. Love I suppose could bring a sense of passion and peace ... all in one. In the video which is very sixties, (so is the song, actually) but one can't help but notice the Mandala's within the video. Now I didn't know what a Mandala was ... until very recently... after viewing the video. Interesting. There's a lot of psychodelic colors, but if you look more closely ... it looks more like Energy fields. Positive energy fields coupled with Mandalas. Manadalas are said to be used to help in the holistic healing arts, and for the purpose of bringing forth focus. Some of those energy fields ... look like Love energy. The other's I dont know what they are, exactly, I'm not that adept at that sort of thing. Maybe it's just art .... then again there just might be more to it than first meets the eye, so to speak. Maybe the art is meant to represent or dipict certain types of energy fields. If that be so,then there's a message in it. But back to the Mandalas...to focus. Focus is good. One can't really do anything unless they can see it clearly first in their minds eye...IMHO. but going from the Crimson and Clover video over to the graphics on that planet ... well that's very interesting. And would all appear to be linked. connected. first we start at the first graphic. I've seen this place before many years ago, in a dream. A dream that actually turned out to be prophetic in part way back then. Yeah I know it sounds weird. And it's really, really strange to see this scene dipicted. Made me do a double take. lol It's quite a coicidence to see this again. It's almost identical. Very close. If Prince and the people at the Lotusflow3r site meant something different, I wished they'd say something, because the scene is so close to something I've seen before, I can't really see it in any other terms. It's pulling on some old forgotten memories. Kind of in my face. There was another comet with me, but I don't recall now the color of it. I was thinking it was red. I was an emerald green comet. But none the less..... I don't think this was taken from the game Myst. I think this is speaking to something different. It's called the planet of death, from what I understood. But it's not really... it's actually a place of endless suffering. Which I guess is just as bad. However, the planet is not earth. Whats really interesting, when we all enter the site itself, we are all turned into a comet and transported to another space, where we have three different planets to choose from that we can go to. Pretty cool eh?. In a lot of ways. None of which are the planet of death or ... aka... the planet of suffering. The only way to escape the planet of death ....i.e. the planet of suffering is to find a way to be turned back into a comet and lift off from the planet ...flying through the universe. The reason for being sent to such a place? Lack of focus. Lack of meditiation and focus. I used to think chanting was a sin and therefore something not to be done. I grew up hearing that it was a sin and not to be done. These days, I'm not so sure that's correct information for several reasons that I think I shall not get into here. Now that I've done a good job of convincing everyone that reads this that I'm completely insane... I'll make my point. So, "Come, let us dine at the table of good reason...." The point is, the LotusFlower while under the murky waters ..in its seed pod form, might be like a person who is sitting under water in a toxic enviroment, asleep, blind ... whose eyes have not yet opened, but who must focus their mental energies ..to rise above the confusion and toxic atmosphere. i.e. the murky waters and mirey clay and bloom transforming from hidden seed pod buried in muck to beautiful flower in the sunshine. So in the first graphic we see Prince, coming into the planet of death or ...some might say the planet of suffering... as a comet, with the Lotus Flower Light on the face of the comet. The Lotus is in bloom, is light, enlightened, and very probably able to transform back and forth into the comet at will. Which is the power of freedom to choose. (I think). The person on the planet ... which remarkably looks like Prince also, has not learned that trick yet. But clearly will soon... Once he has learned to turn back into the comet he can leave that desolate, isolated ...unhappy place. Will the man on the planet escape? In a word... Yes. all the graphics on the LotusFlower disk seem to me to be linked. Hello Friend..now let's get 2 work I go by keys words here..I'm just going with assosiation, if that alright with ya..let's hope some other people join us Luck yes I agree with ya the clover is about luck, and what's more interesting that Mr P says in Wall of Berlin that he "doesn't believe in luck" and "U want a 4 leaf clover.." is asked by she..hmmm interesting..so does it mean that Mr P is questioning His beliefs and thinking: "hmm maybe I need 2 broaden my mind" ..2 go deeper; what is actually luck? What do people mean when they r talking about luck..furher more does the word "luck" has different definitions in different cultures ? I know 4 a fact that 4 xample in Mandarin Chinese,which is the oldest still-in-use language, the character "luck" means actually luck, lucky and happiness Ok so that's a little humble start..I'll have some more coming later 2nite Peace and joy ![]() [Edited 6/11/09 6:04am] "I'm a soldier of love.
