Maybe it's Prince's way of saying "Fuck You" to all the people or things he has issues with without saying "Fuck You." Who knows. shrug
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

I didn't mean the word Candy replacing the phrase "fuck you" more like it would be his way of saying fuck you. Sorry I wasn't clear before. What a bizarre thread lol

I actually think that may be it. He's judging peoples' actions in the song, why not claim some sort of outcome as a result?

No more eternal candy for you!

I have no problem with it actually. He's obviously condemning people in the song, it's fairly open to interpretation as to what he's specifically referring to. Would it be better to say that karma is a bitch, or people get what they deserve, or every action has a consequence than it is to say "you're putting your soul in jeopardy?"

You could probably light a cigerette off his face when he finds out you can directly link anyone to all that $77 candy.

Good one. That makes sense to me.

I think "No More Candy 4 u" is a parable meaning that you cannot keep enjoying success when you are a hater or not talented.


Yep. nod

I'm stunned they haven't fixed the site security. I'm even more stunned those of us who were dumb enough to pay the $77 haven't kicked up more of a poo cloud.

I'm just readiing this and that makes a lot of sense. That goes for everything in life too when you think about it. Who knew there was something deep for me to get from this song. You learn something new everyday. biggrin

smile nah. Haven't you ever said something like "People get what they deserve in the end?"

Even when we say about some jerk "well they're obviously not happy deep down" is the same thing as saying no more candy.

It's just an observation, we have no power to condemn.

ah I missed this post earlier. That's exactly what I think too. I apply Prince's obvious religious obsession but that's the basic idea, I think.

It's about the state of your soul vs. your actions in life

It's less candy, more like old chewing gum you found stuck behind the headboard. Not that i was expecting 10 unreleased albums, but I expected more than a third generation Japanese copy of sacrafice of victor. I bought that Mavis Staples gig from you six years ago motherfucker! mad
