back in the 86 mojo interview he said ..."everything means something"

Please excuse me if this has been mentioned. Is it me or has anyone else noticed that to the right of the illustration of Prince the "hills" (for a lack of a better description) resembles the face of someone laying down?

The purple section being the forehead and nose, with a darker area where a nostril would be. The two orange sections representing the lips and the red section below that being the chin. What do you think?

I thought it was himself, in his female persona. Cos that's the only chick he digs infront of da morror when he's wearing his belly dancers outfit.

There are hills in this picture?

If it is, those are some big ass lips, it would have to be someone like Fantasia

Big Beautiful Lips Belonging To Someone Black And Strong

Dear lord.

I love it. The pics of20ten, ATWIAD, and 1999 remind me of a picture in a psychology textbook that you can see an old woman or a young woman depending on what you focus on. Cool.

I like the how the word Laydown is done on the back of the cd cover... looks like vines or flowers

If it's supposedly hidden how did u see it?

A spoken-word poet

we heard in an interview from around the late 70s early 80s P was ?ned whom he really admires ?

Then he answered: speakers. I think the interviewer thought he meant speakers (for a stereo )

But then he went on to say ....speakers...like martin luther king.

It's a purple nipple and an orang vaginal lips

Do you think the JW Council of Elders sit around and decipher this cover?

I wonder because I heard somewhere that his abandoning of the promotion of the 3121 album was due to the Council finding the album to suggestive, dirty...his innuendo was too strong I guess.

I think they (the JWs) would see what we see...do you think they chastise him?

Yes, he has apologized on numerous occasions. Yes, Mr.Nelson, has been a gentleman every time. Yes, he has a big heart and a very genius intelligence. If you had the destiny of kindness and knew fact, then you most definetely agree. I know this because, I have personal fact. He is a very nice man. I witness to this, as I lay my life and whole being on the above truth. Thank you.

apparently he has TWO SIDES and they both 'friends'.

maybe it's a bit naive to presume he's everything you say, all of the time.

he's not and a lot of people can attest to that.

I speak of above; in fact, of how he treated me NOT of what others, therein, is my truth. Thank u! Donot attempt to twist my truth for in yourdoingso is deemed a liar.

must have been great to meet him when he was playing host

but to suggest that people who disagree with you are unkind? how would you know?

to go even further and suggest we are liars if we dare refute your interpretation of your experience? excuse me?

your experience with prince is not necessarily everyone else's.

to claim anyone else's truth is a lie and that they are unkind people, is unkind imo

but oh how i wish i had a purple fantasy microchip implanted in my brain

then maybe we'd see things the same way and your insinuations would be unnecessary.

better yet, lets ask Prince what he thinks of himself

Actually in the cover of Emancipation, it's Mayte's pregnant figure laying on her back, similar to what you saw on ATWIAD.

no one has heard of anyone before and then they here of them and they know what they did not know or who they did not know, or what they did not know. I assure I heard and paul heard, and sally heard and tanisha heard, and Ed heard and so on and so on....

might be fair to say whoever his real muse is, is the woman he fucks physically, not the woman he fucks over.

plus Coachella and 20ten are 2 years apart, and 20ten is said to be his journal of 2010, or something.

Maybe he knew her 2 yrs ago. If you listen to Beginning Endlessly the lyrics make it sound like Prince wants to be with a woman he knows loves him but won't be with him. If 20TEN is like his journal he's waiting for someone to say the word and Bria is history. Iwhen I heard Sticky Like Glue I thought he could be singing about her so you might be right.

I honestly think his LOVE is Mayte. Jus' sayin'

I hadn't noticed the face, but then again I don't really look at the album covers that closely. I never noticed he was naked on the Lovesexy cover until I read it here, went, "he's naked on the cover?", then got the case out and had a look.

I usually get the CD, get it out and stick it on. I hardly ever look at any booklets or liner notes either, only on occasion if there are lyrics and I want to check them out.
