Alphabet St.

Why is it that at the end of the song, when reciting the alphabet from A-I, the letter G is left out? Anyone else noticed this?

hmmm If I remember correctly, Prince once said in an interview that maybe it was because he kissed her at that point or somethin'... shrug

Of course you remember correctly:

It was the 'Ask The Artist' interview posted on the official website on 30 April 1998 - questions submitted by people - chosen and answered by prince

The question and response was:


U: On 'Lovesexy', on 'Alphabet Street', a woman's voice can be heard in the background reciting the alphabet. But she skips the letter "G". What's up with that?

prince: She was being kissed at the time, and got flustered, eye suppose

.
ALT+PLS+RTN: Pure as a pane of ice. It's a gift.

I always thought that if she didnt skip a letter she wouldnt have reached the letter 'I' to be able to contiunue with 'love u".
Artistic license i suppose.
