Didn't u watch "3 chains of gold"? The "7" are Mayte's fathers "security" and they murdered him to get the chains. Prince wants to see them fall. Hence "all 7 and we'll watch them fall" biggrin

The 3 chains didn't look too expensive too me?

The song is about 12 souls having to share 7 vaginas.

This cuases tremendous conflict and bloodshed, and a war breaks out for possessions of said vaginas.

The song "7" was written before the movie was made. So I doubt the song is about Mayte's fathers. Thats like saying ""Take Me With You" is about Prince taking Appalonia to the lake and making her jump in naked.

Yeah asianbombs "hippy" reply woulda been spot on. Damon dickson offered him a spliff and Prince wrote "7" whilst high. Damon made up a dance for it.

Joking aside, it is well known that it paraphrases a part of Revelations.



You know, from that book, what's it called? Harry Potter and the Disciples of Jeruzlam...

this is what i believe the song "7" is about.. it comes from the Bible, the Book of Proverbs
- the 7 things that GOD hates:

Proverbs 6
16 There are six things the LORD hates,
seven ('7") that are detestable to him:

17 haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
hands that shed innocent blood,

18 a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,

19 a false witness who pours out lies
and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers. [/b]

- all 7 an we'll watch them fall, these things stand in the way of LOVE (love between GOD and humans), and in the Bible another name 4 love is GOD.

This is from the Uptown website from way back - an analysis of the lyrics of 7

'7' - a comparison with the Book of Revelation

And I saw an angel come down to me
In her hand she holds the very key


Reference to the angels who appeared to John in his revelation. In the beginning Christ appeared to him with the keys to Heaven and Hell

Words of compassion, words of peace
And in the distance an army's marching feet


The seven kings of the tribulation will appear not to be evil. They will speak of peace and unification, all the while planning war against God and his people

But behold, we will watch them fall

The believers will watch their demise

And we lay down on the sand of the sea

God stands on 'the sand of the sea' and we will be bowing to him

And before us animosity will stand and decree
That we speak not of love only blasphemy


God gave a 'beast', evil, the power to turn the people of the earth against God for 42 months. The beast will blaspheme against God and his people and make it seem as though God and his followers were the ones who are blasphemers

And in the distance 6 others will curse me

The 'beast' is one of the seven kings and there are six more to come

But that's alright for I will watch them fall

They all will falter

All 7 and we will watch them fall

The seven kings will come to power during the tribulation 'We' - God's people, will triumph with God over them

They stand in the way of love

They are against the love of God, from which all love is derived

And we will smoke them all

They will be thrown in the lake of fire or burn with sulfer 'Smoke' will arise from them eternally

With an intellect and a savoir-faire

God is all knowing and all powerful (omnipotent) Savoir-faire means 'know how'

No one in the whole universe will ever compare

God is unmatched in greatness

I am yours now and you are mine
And together we'll love through all space and time


Some believe that eternal love will be found in Heaven, besides that of the love of Christ. We will be matched with a human (non-Godly) being to love for all eternity

So don't cry - one day all 7 will die

For all the pain and suffering, have faith in God. The evil seven kings will die.

And we will see a plague and a river of blood

These are the two ways that God will destroy the earth. We will know that the end is near

And every evil soul will surely die in spite of

Refers to the death of the soul of the non-believers of God. They will be thrown in to Hades

their 7 tears - but do not fear

Tears will fall and sadness will be upon us, but great things are to come so do not fear

For in the distance 12 souls from now

The souls of the 12 apostles will be avenged

U and me will still be here

We, the believers, will live eternally

There will be a new city with streets of gold

A discription of the New Jerusalem. The city will be lavish

The young so educated - they will never grow old

We will never be as all knowing as the Lord, but our knowledge will greatly increase and 'our eyes will be opened to the mysteries of the universe.' We will not age.

There will be no death, for with every breath

And there will be no illness, pain or death

The voice of many colours sings a song
That's so bold
Sing it while we watch them fall


The multitudes, too numerous to count, from every tribe of the earth, will sing a song, 'Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb (Christ)' This song will have the power to eliminate evil things from the world.

I doubt he really knew what he was talking about. He claimed that while he was whatever he was b4 becoming a Witness that he didn't even read the Bible. He probably went along with what he was taught/told, or what he thought it meant.

Some of it's accurate though. smile
