Prince's non-falsetto/falsetto-sung-songs are in a ratio of around 1,759398496240601503759.
No, I did not include outtakes and internet-only singles in my count.

i must be thick cos i dont have a clue what your talking about.

It means that for every falsetto-sung song of his there are 1.75..... non-falsetto-sung songs of his.

Get it?

oh i get it.

thats really interesting

did you know that a ducks Quack doesnt echo
no-one knows why it doesnt

wow...interesting factoid

im trying to invisage a conversation where that fact would become useful


the answer to 'which are the only 2 democracies ever to declare war on each other?' is a useless fact that ive managed to slip into many drunken conversation... i'll no doubt find a way to slip this one in two - just need to get my musically handicapped friends to vear into a prince-related convo.. hmm..

I'm glad this totally useless thread gets so much attention!
Much more in fact than some of my more intellectual ramblings!

how'd you come up with that?

thats what i'm wondering. mathematically challenged folks like me can't wrap my head around that

I just went over to www.dtt-lyrics.com because I don't have my Prince collection here with me, clicked on each album, made notes how many songs on each album are sung in which voice (by memory), added the numbers and then divided the number of non-falsetto with the number of falsetto songs. Voilà!

Or do you mean why I did it? That I can't tell you.

My hat's off to you, I never was that good in math (Geometry & Algebra II Sucks)

what about songs that are sung partly in falsetto and partly his normal register...The Continental springs to mind , and TMBGITW is a bit of both,mainly falsetto though I guess

MATH ROCKS! I am a wiz at it! But I have not a clue what u guys are rambling about.....dividing stuff? Why? It's justa waste of fucking time, I wouldn' have sat there dividing all those #'s wasting my time, it's tooo tiring!

Continental was indeed a bit of a problem. I think that one I counted for falsett.

wow...lives, have we got them?
