The REAL meaning behind "3121"

It's so obvious. So that he'll finally have a song mentioning a year he won't exceed during his lifetime, like the case was with "1999". It was always an illogical song-title anyway - what was once considered futuristic is now just something inevitably retro. This time he got it absolutely right! "So tonight we're gonna party like it's 3121!" Don't U wanna go?

Am I going to get locked now? eek

Even a raging narcissist can be right once...in a while.

OH NO, YOU'RE ALL WRONG!

3121 = 3rd alphabet letter, first alphabet letter, second alphabet letter, first alphabet letter.

3121 = C A B A or CABA

so, what's CABA?

caba

s \Ca*bas"\ (k[.a]*b[aum]"), n. [F.] A flat basket or frail for figs, etc.; hence, a lady's flat workbasket, reticule, or hand bag; -- often written caba. --C. Bront['e].


Source: Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary, © 1996, 1998 MICRA, Inc.


The final rundown: Prince is getting older and is into figs...he carrys them around in a CABA and wants us all to know about it....

hence..... 3121


CABA.
Walking alone in the dark, I see nothing u see
I can be in a park, or flying in the…in the deep sea
I wish u’d hold my hand; then everything could b
There’s nothing strange, we’re not deranged
We only want everyday 2 b a Cosmic Day
