~When Prince talks in the song~

~When Prince talks in the song~

Prince inserts dialogue here and there that always enhances the emotion of the song, which isn't usually mentioned in the lyric books.

What are your favorite things that Prince says? What song is it from?

It takes time to remember, it can only give us a reason to listen again.

"Come on baby, Let's get this on," from "One Kiss at a Time.
"Hey girl, I betcha didn't know I had both eyes on U, It's true, and U know what, I've seen all those other guys 2, and very frankly, I don't give a damn." From the opening of, "La La La Means I Love U."

I'll find some other linez later...

I think it's funny when Prince says..."Tell U what I'm bout' 2 do boye." in "Black Sweat."

....my favorite is in....Lion of Judah...half-way through the song he says....
...who will stand by my side through the good and the bad?...let that ONE...stand with pride!....the BEST that i ever had!!....so classic...so..mzsexybaby

In his ballads, I think it all started with the Do me, Baby then The Beautiful Ones.

OK Tame. I've got it for Black Sweat. Those words are in here. Dang, so similar, too.

I don't wanna break your pride (Pride)
But I got 2 (Got 2 hurt 'em, gon' hurt 'em y'all)
U bet' take your woman and hide her (Hide)
Cuz I'm about 2... (Tell 'em what U're 'bout 2 do, boy)
Got 2, got 2 show U what's really good (show U what's really good)
Break U off like U knew I would (Like U knew I would)
I got a brand new dance (I got a brand new dance)
And it's called the... uh!

I was gonna post the softly spoken bits in 'How come you don't call me anymore', but this thread got reallllly silly...

love the poetry in Dreamin'Bout U.
"If the wind blew every petal from your precious red rose, Would you be afraid of what u'd find inside?"

Hurt me

I like in his version of "Betcha by golly wow" when he says:

Baby, sometime
A man can't find words to express all the things he feels inside
But every just so often
The words of another who's truly in love seem to work out fine

2 say I love U (I love U)
2 say I'm thinking of U!

Out of the lonely blue...
Take Care...

The opening of "Pheromone."

Come...
Lay down beneath my shadow
Lay down beneath my shadow with a great delight
And Ur (fruit?) will be sweet 2 me
My left hand under your head
While my right embraces time
Therein my virgin of swan.

I love all the poems that are spoken on the Come album. When I listen to it with my headphones, it sounds like he is whispering in my ear.

Me 2. The first time I listened to the album was late at night. I couldn't sleep so I felt around for my ipod and listend. The whole album but especially the poetry was just so...intoxicating.

I also like the talking at the end of Girl (extended version).

Feel my hands,there all sweaty
I don't know,I guess you frighten me
Cause I never wanted anyone like this before
To feel this way,it's like I don't know,It's like a sin
Cause sometimes I feel bad,sometimes I want you so much I can..
God,all I have to do is think about you,and I can have an orgasm
That sounds funny doesn't it..ha ha ha
Marry me...Yeah that's right..Marry Me..

U've been stuck on Emmancipation too huh? LOL!

Sorry to burst your bubble but that is not what the words are.

1 2 3
Naw, little cutie, I ain't drinkin'
But scope this, I was just thinkin'
U + me, what a ride
If U was thinkin' the same, we could continue outside
Lay your pretty body against a parkin' meter
Strip your dress down like I was strippin' a Peter Paul's Almond Joy
Lemme show U, baby, I'm a talented boy

that's Gett Off
