The song "Let's Pretend We're Married" I thought he was saying "I'm in love with guys it's the only way" When he was actually saying "I'm in love with God". Someone informed me about this just last year. I actually thought up into then he was letting everyone know he have had a bissexual experience.

natty? is that natty in the prince: music forum?

eyewishuheaven said:

oh yes, we do. i thought he was saying something about crying. what did U think ?

Natsume said:

You had lyrics in 1982?

I'm trying to think ...were there many, if any at all, on the 1999 record sleeve? I remember the PR vinyl release had some lyrics, but I don't remember any with 1999....

The Sex Shooter video
is the best product
to have come out of
that Purple Rain era.
(OK, I kid, I kid)

Still, that video is
a study of contrasts:
Apples is the star, but
Susan is the cutie. A
love triangle develops
between Brenda & Apples
but the dancers looked
gay. Did I mention how
pretty Susan was?

My thoughts on that vid
don't seem to have altered
since my teenage years

When I was just learning the guitar and just starting out in the soloing department, it took me a really long time to figure out the opening scales to Rock Hard in a Funky place. I knew it was simple, but couldn't crack it. That sums up a lot of Prince's guitar technique, to me. Hard-to-fathom simplicity.

Don't say I didn't warn you! I thought he said, "You dirty little b----, wanna d--?"

Yeah. I was scared. There was no lyric sheet in the cassette.

Let's cleanse our minds of that, with another misheard lyric by Yours Truly, from Melody Cool:

"Every woman and every man
one day they just got to understand
that if we're playin' with Slinkies
everything will be
Melody Cool!"

When I first read this post, i thought it was kind of harsh. Did you not get enough hugs as a child ? I have noticed in most of your posts, that you think your shit don't stink, and, somehow you are above every one else. Come down here with the rest of us, and try to be real. I could call you out of your name, but you seem so fake, i don't want to know it. Wow, what a confession. So sorry, but i had to get that out. Thank You Music.

Moonwalkbjrain said:

Moonwalkbjrain said:

I figure, Prince's lyrics don't always make sense on the surface.

In I love u in me I tought the lyricks went like this : she took off her dress and I took a pee (like urinate) instead of peek.I tought it makes sense,before sex it's good thing 2 do .But hey english is not my mother tongue!

Back then? I still suffer from this problem

i thought when Prince was saying "animals strike curious poses" he was saying "in the most tri-curious poses",lol-whatever that was supposed 2 mean,LOL!I thought Apollonia was her real name...lol-i thought Prince's mom was really white...and i thought Purple Rain was fully true-EVERYTHING
hmmmm...oh,i used 2 rent Purple Rain from Blockbuster all the time b/c id spend all my money up on like stupid stuff.when i was younger i found my mom's Prince tape(COME) in storage and hid it so i could listen 2 it,but it wouldnt even play! everytime id buy a prince cd w/parental advisory id put my thumb over the sticker all the way 2 the front of the store and hold my breath hoping the cashier wouldnt realize or care how old i was.i also waited until i went 2 NY w/my class 2 buy the Lovesexy album so that i could get away w/buying a CD with butt-naked Prince on the cover,lol.i have more but ill stop

PleasurePrinciple said:

Exactly!
I remember when I had first became a fan. All alone ... LOL. I would go to the record store to buy a new Prince record and I'd turn it over at the cash register so the people wouldn't see, or I'd pretend as if I was looking at Kelly Price (or some othe P name) in the R&B section My stomach would hurt and the works. Glad that's over...

Jaarod86 said:

That is so crazy, I didn't know what the hell he was saying when I first heard the song. My friend thought he said "touch your pussy".

Now for my bad rather weird confession. I hated Prince for "Darling Nikki" for a long time. When he said "I knew a girl named Nikki I guess you can say she was a sex fiend, I met her in a hotel lobby masturbating w/ a magazine". I thought he meant she had rolled up the magazine and was "pleasuring herself" you know... like a dildo. I thought that was soooo disgusting and possibly painful. I later realized he meant she was "looking at" the magazine and was pleasuring herself. I'm laughing at myself..I can't believe I thought that.
