No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.

Sex is not love. Love is not sex. Putting words in other people's mouths will only get you elected.

Need more sleep than coke or methamphetamine.

can`t really remember , the odd thing was we all know the song so well and were singing alomg , I for one was kinda puzzled at the changed lyrics , didn`t spoil it tho `.
Odder still it`s one of the few songs with profanities in that I thought were unnecessary , yet I still did a double take at the new lyrics.

I can't believe he would say that,
he IS an American. Human behavior
is the same all over the world.
No one is perfect, or no country.
I can't believe he would say it,
in what context? It was probably
a mis-understanding. right?

DOW is one of my favorites, because
it depicts just that "These are the
Days of Wild", all over the world.
Just as he did in "Sign of the Times".

He plays the DOW with so much emotion,
especially the guitar solo.

I think a lot of Americans have a healthy appreciation of some of the absurdities of our culture, including the frequent lack of substance therein, so I *can* believe he'd say that. And I'd chuckle.

Doves,

ECHO SAYS:

YES - I for one have a healthy NON-appreciation
of the MANY

ABSURDITIES
NONSENSE
FOOLISHNESS
PREPOSTEROUS
LACK OF GOOD JUDGEMENT
THAT HAS GONE ON ALL OVER THE WORLD
- THIS IS NOT A PERFECT WORLD!

THIS IS WAS WHAT I WAS REFERRING TO...

I was ONLY SAYING that I COULD NOT
believe that Prince would say "silly Americans"
when HE IS AN AMERICAN himself. I DID NOT BELIEVE IT,
AND I wanted TO know THE CONTEXT!

THAT IS ALL...SO IF YOU KNOW
OR
ANYONE
ELSE,
PLEASE TELL ME! smile anyone?
