Probably hundreds of them. There's one in Manchester, England, for starters.
But Marge! What if we chose the wrong religion? Each week we just make God madder and madder.

Still one of his strongest lines in my opinion:

"Technicoloured children on Piccadilly square, whisper words, erotica, when you kiss me there"

Very poetic

The whole song is really poetic.

Lyrically this is one of my favorite types of Prince songs.

Trippy.

The only people who would refer to it as Piccadilly square would be tourists! No self-respecting Londoner has ever called it that. SACRILEGE.

Great track though...
