You mean with the hallway speech in all? I dont really care witch version as long as he gets to the Father's Song part with the guitar.

Yeah but he could take that out if he wants. But I do want the Father's Song bit in it.

We label our movies, our music, our TV, our videogames, our food... But somehow books escape this. Any kid can pick up a book with completely pornographic descriptions I guess we figure if they read a book it's worth the psychological damage?

Well see that don't make sense, you're gonna label everything EXCEPT books? I mean it's like "might as well or don't do it at all".

I was nearly scarred 4 life after reading American Gods. I heard it was a great book and all. Very graphic. Even worse than Stephen King

It's funny as I look back at the "controversy" of Purple Rain. In the other thread where it was mentioned about songs Prince couldn't play anymore, I said something about him not doing "Computer Blue", since he hardly curse anymore in his shows, that hell wasn't even as much of a curse word as it used to be, then I thought about it, there wasn't a moment on PR except for "Darling Nikki" where it was really that daring. I'm guessing because Tipper and Al Gore had a problem with the lyrics mentioning masturbation and "grinding" that this is why it got the sticker but it's one of Prince's least cursive albums. I don't even think he said DAMN in any of the songs and besides from "hell" in "Computer Blue" but I guess it shows you how wild things were in the '80s that someone would dare do a song about a "girl masturbating with a magazine" when nowadays people think it's real tame right now. I understand it was all about censorship but I always thought those people were pushing it about it being detrimental to a young listener. Anyways, I just thought that was interesting. What y'all think about that time?

I've talked about this before, with a lot of Prince's 1980's music did not have a lot of cursing,

He might have cursed a lot in concerts but not on albums/songs. The more explicity words I didn't hear from him till 1990's

Nothing on Purple Rain has words kids can't listen to. Even the B sides are pretty clean except 4 Erotic City
