Lovesexy / Black album era 1987-1989 pt2

original thread is closed, and I'm not done yet

Lovesexy era pt 1 http://prince.org/msg/7/3...?&pg=1

No side effects, the feeling last 4ever

So come vibe with us
Welcome to the Funk Bible
The new testament

A 'rebirth' of Prince, the shadow of the Black Album, Madhouse 16, into of New Power Soul idea, Blue Cloud guitar, perfecting of the Aftershows, the pokadot suite, tasty Bsides & Outtakes, 2 muses Anna Fantastic & Ingrid Chavez,the beginning of Prince's cloistered Paisley Park existence.

Many in his band and camp did not know what Lovesexy meant, but they sure did interpret it well on stage.

Talk 2 me lover, come and tell me what U taste ????


Released May 10, 1988

The reason why my voice is so clear

So Camille found a new color.

Le Grind
Cindy C
Dead On It
When 2 R in Love
Bob George
Superfunkicalifragisexy
2NigUnited4WestCompton
Rock Hard In A Funky Place

Time upon a once
There was a boy named Camille
Now this boy named Camille
didn't know how 2 feel.
Sometimes he was lonely
sometimes he was sad
but most times
he just took 4 granted
all the nice things
that he had.

Some people said they loved him
but Camille said
"Contempt!
Winter, Spring,
Summer, or Fall,
love is no good
unless it's felt by all
"

So, naive & terrifically in need
Camille started looking for answers
His paintbrush the questioner,
his canvas the arena,
Camille set out to silence his critics.
"No longer daring" - his enemies laughed.
"No longer glam, his funk is half-assed...
one leg is much shorter
than the other one is weak.
His strokes are tepid,
his colors are meek."

So Camille found a new color.
The color black:
strongest hue of them all.
He painted a picture
called Le Grind --
hittin' so tall.
And then Cindy C --
THE vogue fantasy.
Horns & vocals 2 die 4.
Lollipops -- in yours!

Stroke after stroke callin' all others a joke.
Superfunkycalifragisexi.

Camille rocked hard in a funky place. Stuck his long
funk in competition's face. Tuesday came. Blue Tuesday.
His canvas full, and lying on the table, Camille mustered
all the hate that he was able. Hate 4 the ones who ever
doubted his game. Hate 4 the ones who ever doubted his name.

"Tis nobody funkier -- let the Black Album fly." Spooky
Electric was talking, Camille started 2 cry. Tricked.
A fool he had been. In the lowest utmostest. He had allowed
the dark side of him 2 create something evil. 2 Nigs United
4 West Compton. Camille and his ego. Bob George. Why?
Spooky Electric must die. Die in the hearts of all who
want love. Die in the hearts of men who want change.
Die in the bodies of women who want babies that will grow up
with a New Power Soul. Love Life, Lovesexy -- the feeling
u get when u fall in love, not with a girl or boy but with the
heavens above. Lovesexy -- endorphin. Camille figured out
what 2 feel. Glam Slam Escape -- the Sexuality Real.
Tonight we make love with only words. Girls first. This
feeling's so good in every single way.
God is alive! Let Him touch u and He will quench
every thirst. Let him touch u and an aura of peace will adorn u.
God is alive!
Let Him touch u and your own Lovesexy will be born.
Let Him touch u, let Him touch u, and Heaven is yours.
Welcome 2 the New Power Generation.

When 2 R In Love

So fierce U look 2night
The brightest star pales 2 your sex
Before we do anything, let me just talk 2 U

When 2 are in love
They'll whisper secrets only they 2 can hear
When 2 are in love

When 2 are in love (Love)
Their stomachs will pound every time the other comes near
When 2 are in love

When 2 are in love (Love)
Falling leaves will appear 2 them like slow motion rain
Slow motion, slow motion

When 2 are in love
The speed of their hips can be faster than a runaway train
(Drip-drop, drip-drop - water, water, water)

Come bathe with me – let's drown each other in each other's emotions
Bathe with me – let's cover each other with perfume and lotion
Bathe with me – ooh, let me touch your body till your river's an ocean
Bathe with me – let's kiss with one synonymous notion
Nothing's forbidden and nothing's taboo (Nothing's taboo)
When the 2 are in love (L.O.V.E. - L.O.V.)
Can U hear me?

When 2 are in love (When 2 are in love)
Their bodies shiver at the mere contemplation of penetration
(Let alone the act) Let alone the actual act (Act)

When 2 are in love
The thought of his tongue in the V of her love
In his mind (this thought) - it leads the pack (Pack)

Come bathe with me – let's drown each other in each other's emotions
Bathe with me – let's cover each other with perfume and lotion
Bathe with me – ooh, let me touch your body till your river's an ocean
Bathe with me – let's kiss with one synonymous notion
That nothing's forbidden and nothing's taboo (Nothing's taboo)
When the 2 are in love (Love)
In love
Can U hear me?

Hold me
Yeah, just like that
Don't move

My favorite song from this album, never liked the way it was performed on the Lovesexy tour though.

I Wish U Heaven

Doubts of our conviction
Follow where we go
And when the world's compassion
Ceases, still I know
4 your every touch
I thank U so much
4 your every kiss I...
I wish U love

I wish U heaven {x2}

If I see 11
U can say it's 7
Still I wish U heaven
I wish U love

I wish U heaven {x2}

La, la, la, la, la
Do, do, do, do, do
La, la, la, la, la
Do, do, do, do, do
La, la, la, la, la

I wish U heaven {x8}
(We wish U heaven)

It's amazing how each album Prince reinvented his whole style; as versatile in this as in his music.

Lovely era the Lovesexy one. Firstly, coz of the polkadots!

I wish you heaven, also my favourite track.

I really need to find these individual songs coz on my cd, they're all
"stickied like glue" sad so I don't play it and I do love that cd! razz

Cats outfits also, dig them all! Great dancer she was. Really funky.

Yeah, i love the lovesexy look. The hair, the colours, the trademark quirkiness. Also, i just like a man in tights. The outfit with the black shorts, white tights and black boots - razz

Sheila E's and Cat's outfitss were hot too!

Love it, I love the SOTT set up more though, you could see all the band, but he was wild-er during the Lovesexy time, almost as wild as Purple Rain

It truly is Prince's best tour nod I don't think he will ever be able to top that tour.

Nice pic. I've never seen it before.

The reason I don't like Dance on, OFFS is because the chorus, lyrics and verse don’t blend enough for me and it feels as if the vibes keep being interrupted.

But then I wish u heaven – my favourite on the album, is just a little piece of paradise wrapped up in luscious lyrics and ribbons of syncopation.

"if I say 11, you can say it’s 7” my favourite line on the whole album. Such unconditional love. I'd say 11 then just became I'm allowed to say 7. nod
