1999 & Deacon Blues I was listening to Steely Dan's Aja last night.
I have always wondered if Prince was referring to the line in "Deacon Blues": "I cried when I wrote this song/ sue me if I play too long" 1999 could be a reference to it, but it could just be a coincidence, too. I've always felt that Prince would like Steely Dan--it's definitely real music played by real musicians. Check this song out at:

I don't think there is a connection concerning the songlines, but I do think Prince likes Steely Dan. RIP Prince: thank U 4 a funky Time... |

Prince has done this with the title "Ice Cream Castles" as well. SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz. Especially when he talks about Hendrix."
