i wouldn't put it past prince.

but anna was around way before carmen and we've always 'known' that the song was about her,
haven't we?

pink cashmere + anna waiting = some truly great songs writter for her/about her.

And they are both about the story of Prince popping her Cherry Cherry

At least Carmen took a mature direction. I like this and her post.
Anna is looking 4 a fight.

Interesting he never put her name in the reference, he was a player and he enjoyed leaving his quotes 'open' so no one could pin anything on him. That's why we now have all these women in his life arguing over what relates to each of them, I'm sure he would find it all amusing if he's watching it somewhere. It will make an amusing episode of Jeremy Kyle when they get all the Prince 'Women' in the studio.

Wrote it for Anna, released it for Carmen.

I believe there are alot of songs he wrote with one muse in mind and released with another

It was his music to do as he pleased. It is all good.

That's why he would put the songs in the vault and revisit/mix/record them later when he has a new love in his life to assign it to......

Its like an episode of the sister wives.

I like that she recognizes he told more than one woman this song was about them. At least she is willing to admit that!

I think Anna ns just wanted some attention. She must not have been invited to the Rev igs. Too many pics with Jill i guess.

When U think about it, like Carmen Electra but even moreso, she was such a quick blip on the Purple radar that most people even the bands don't know of her. I mean we know of her because we are hardcore fans and the song has been talked about here forever, not to mention all the Lovesexy era threads people have created and there are enough pictures of Prince leading her

But outside of that who would actually know her, and why...

True her relationship with P meant more to her than it did him. Imo. I always thought Carmen was her replacement in the looks department. You know how P loved to swap people out. Someone did a great thread on it once.

I think it was like that with 99.9% of the woman he dated...the relationship meant more to them then it did to him, well except for maybe Mayte and Denise.

I think some of them like Susan Moonsie, she was really important to Prince, Susannah Melvoin he continued a relationship(friendship on into later years) Sheila E as well

Some good relationships(romantic turn into friendships)

yeah calling Carmen electra "TMBGITW doesn't mean the song was witten for her.. I mean she was in Three chains o gold so was Mayte... he could have wrote it while Carmen was around at the time he wrote it and then later released it and as Mayte was in his life at the time it became her song.. who knows.. I dont think there was much going on with P cand Carmen.. I dont think its about her TMBGITW anyway..

Didn't his relationships with Mayte, Carmen and Nona all overlap throughout 93/94?

Yep

Carmen Electric (opened) for the Nude tour? so she was around in 1990 or even late 89?

Mayte was dancing (not as prominent) on the Diamonds & Pearls tour (2nd 1/2?)

and he was seeing Nona by 93/94 and chose Mayte to be his wife at the close of the Gold Experience

I don't know if he was still seeing actress Troy Beyer (in the video Sexy MF) though.

Can you imagine how many variations of notes are out in the world almost just like this one.

Jackie Swanson who handed him the white cloud guitar in the Raspberry Beret video

she was an upcoming actress at the time. There are actually quite a few 'famous' people in the video

But my question is is there really a song called Palamino Pleasure Ride? They did do a song around the time called She Pony, and Zebra with the Blond Hair(about Jill Jones I believe)

Imagine -he was a real lover of the soul. I think he meant it everytime. Everyone seems to have felt special and that I guess was one of his true gifts

Wendy Melvoin: I remember being at that “Sexuality” video shoot and him on stage with that little black jacket and that tie thing around his neck and his black pants with white buttons on the side. And we looked at each other for the first time and I thought, “Oh, I could so fall in love with that girl easy.” It doesn’t matter what sexuality, gender you are. You’re in the room with him and he gives you that look and you’re like, “Okay, I’m done. It’s over.” He’s Casanova. He’s Valentino.

LISA COLEMAN: I lived in his house on and off for a couple of years. We had a fight one day. He said something about me getting my own apartment, and I left the house and drove around for a while. When I got back, he had written me a whole song. It was so cute. The lyric was, “I guess I have a strange way of saying I love you.” He had recorded it — drums, piano, guitar, bass and vocals with harmonies.

He also dated Ophelie Winter in 1993, during the period that she was regularly visiting in Paisley Park to work with him on the French version of The Most Beautiful Girl In The World, titled "Le Plus Bel Homme de l'Univers" (meaning: The Most Beautiful Man in the Universe). The song was never released. She was 17 at the time. Interviewed shortly after he passed, Ophelie says that Prince "taught me everything about music, my life, everything(...) he was my other spiritual half." http://www.rtl.fr/culture...7782936065

I found an Interview with Nona.. why is it that people think becuse he was out with that person at ahows etc that they were together:

I dont think he and Carmen or nona had anythimng other than a working relationship/fRENDSHIP WITH PRINCE.

Nona Gaye Hello Interview from 1994 (Talks Prince and Lovesign)

"Nona: The artist formerly known as Prince.


Nona, how closely are you working with him now?


Nona: He’s doing my album, so we see each other quite often. I go to Minneapolis to work on the stuff. So we work closely together.


How would you describe your relationship with Prince?


Nona: He’s my best friend, that’s the truth. And that’s all I’m going to say.


How do you feel about the rumors that you two are much closer than that?


Nona: People can say whatever they want to say. That happens all the time. When you see two people hang out together you just assume. And people can assume as much as they like but, my business is my own business. He’s my best friend. "
