your Parent's? was it "bambi?,Head? or another song?&what was there Reaction?

"If I Was Ur Girlfriend" was/is still the hardest song 4 me 2 explain 2 even peeps my age.

The hardest song to explain was Darling Nikki. My parents almost had heart attacks when they first heard it and I was never able to play it around them again. Computer Blue was also a hard one for me back then. My friends just didn't get it.

I never had to explain any song to them cause they liked his music and listened too. Prince is DER RIGEUR in our household . Love it or LEAVE! First Question asked in our house? Do you like Prince? Anybody negative get's thrown out on their ASS!

Never had to explain anything, but the thing that used to bother me was that my mother used to think his music was all about sex. lol

What is 7 about?

My friend's mother, for the life of her, could not grasp When Doves Cry and Purple Rain.
"Doves can't cry! ... Ain't no rain purple! ... That boy on drugs." Ay, caramba.

... yep i was hit with that one a few times 2 and 'what is 7 about' ugh would it kill people to associate i guess 4 some reason a shrimpy man making 'bigger than life' bible references is inconceivable? We wouldnt want 2 outsmart & teach people anything heady would we lol Ugh the disgrace, people always get competitive and shut new things out ... how dumb :p

... of course i also had 'the sacrifice of ... huh???" up the wazoo ... now with his sexually explicit tunes he doesnt really speak of sex contumely or in a dirty way rather in a titillated manner, as if 2 celebrate it ... it is obvious that sex and love r synonymous 2 him and how do we find love ... through a person’s soul where the deepest entities shine through, such as notions of G-D right? so having recognized that, there is evidence that he is ‘involved’ (while at least 2 me ... and the people i persuade 2 believe so hehe), which my family could not help but approve of ... emotions/expressions come in all shapes n sizes so my parents didnt really fear the lyrics ...plus they had trust in me 2 take them however i please but not get influenced lol if they only knew how powerful he was

Oh wait there was one exception, we musnt 4get 'alphabet street' ... now try explaining that 2 your Mormon relatives in black and white HUH i think not, i should have run away honestly cuz the evil curiosity keeps rolling like a river even 2 this day ... 'Anna stesia? is he wanting 2 die or something ...who r the rainbow children, a cult ... hes trying 2 brain wash u (lol)... cream? r u sure thats what he says' blah blah ... my newest defense with those that r 4ever clueless is 2 look em straight in the eye and dryly reply 'if god didnt give u a brain that is at least sustaining enough2 support traces of answers he isnt going 2 will a full answer 2 u ... sorry thats just the way the ball bounces' hehe im a dork yes i know, but i swear it does sound cool when i yell it lol ... aww hell this is what i get 4 being the extrovert in my family ... ugh damn prince and his complication ... next time someone asks me a question about him I swear I am gonna ship them in a box 2 Paisley 2 ask the little bugger themselves hehe they should have a prince education program in schools it would really take some pressure off of me lol
