Prince on Prince

Heard this line again recently and thought it was very apt.

From 'Moonbeam Levels': "He said he'd never keep diaries to learn from his mistakes, instead he'd just repeat all the good things that he'd done."




Any other lines that seem prophetic in later years? cool
“Tuna, you better do something or else we gonna have to put you back in the can!”

heart Um, I think I understand the OP. I haven't heard any lyrics so far that reflect Prince's real life actions that seemed prophetic. The line that you gave from 'Moonbeam Levels' was pretty good ( I love that song too lol)) but to answer your question, no sorry wink

I wanna taste you, so sweet. Delicious creamy taste from a lover petite...

"Prince on Prince" sounds like some weird fan fiction porn.

I guess the OP means that Prince is not breaking any new ground, just repeating stuff he did years ago. The same post we see on here ad infinitum. Burnt out not on Prince, but the conversation here.

This is what happened after he had those ribs removed.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

If I'm understanding correctly, the OP wants examples where Prince's lyrics tell the listener something personal about Prince.

But yeah, it sounds like fanporn.

I'm firmly planted in denial

I think the OP is asking if you can cite any Prince lyrics from older songs that ring true in his life today.

I'm reminded of the chant at the end of Let's Pretend We're Married:

"Whatever U heard about me is true
I change the rules and do what I wanna do
I'm in love with God, He's the only way
Cuz U and I know we gotta die some day
If U think I'm crazy, U're probably right..."

How about

"Maybe I'm just too demanding, maybe I'm just like my father, too bold

Maybe you're just like my mother, she's never satisfied"

He's talking to his fans. lol

Also, not a song lyric, but

"Life is death without adventure, and adventure only comes to those who are willing to be daring and take chances"

he said in 1985
