You’ve already stated that you know when you hear bullshit, so I’m not sure that there’s much reason in continuing this discussion. You appear supremely convinced that Prince is either full of shit I think that's what it comes down to. I don't doubt that Larry Graham (or whoever) has convinced him that swearing is naughty-naughty. I guess I just feel that Prince tells many fibs and - hey - I don't like it when people tell fibs (especially when they seem to have so many seemingly impressionable people taking their every word as gospel). I still maintain that it is contradictory for someone to preach that swearing is wrong yet not denounce their own work that features swearing (and I still firmly believe he answered the "Erotic City" question the way he did for financial reasons). So, yes, I guess my main point is "Prince is a liar-liar, pants on fire". That's not to say he doesn't have good qualities (he's certainly given us some great music over the years), but it doesn't mean I give him a free pass on everything. Respectfully, Ace | |
