FunkMistress said:

let the choir sing:

i gotta peeeee....

OK.
Here are some small GEMS that hold personal significance for me:

VickiWaiting said

Damn. That's deep. Wish more mofos thought like this and wore some condoms.

I'm moved that he thoughtfully hesitated to translate himself into junior form (and saddened that he now has no children...because HE DOES deserve a copy).

LetsHaveaBaby said

That thought is the most beautiful foreplay ever!

You know how you're with a mate and things go badly and all they ever see in you are your faults. Just always harping and nagging ...and you just want someone who can see there's good still left in you...

Prince conveys all of this angst and desire with a single line! Brilliant pop line ...that I don't think has a twin in any song I've ever heard.

LetsGoCrazy said

When I was 12, this line really grabbed me...like I was listening to philosophy .

And I thought, yes, people worry about WHEN they are going to die, when they should worry about THE QUALITY OF PERSON that's going to die ...because it's so easy to sell away pieces of yourself (for success, convenience, etc.) and die a compromised soul.

Adore said

I rather LOVE this line.

The Western world is so full of people who simply chase the orgasm. Like that's the height of sex. But sex is sooo much richer and deeper than that surface fun.

STrangeRelationship

This is a brilliant and unique song.
A study in human behavior.

That's not in Crow's version and I like it because it recalls The Future, when he said "I've seen the Future and it will be." Cool.

I love that line! It's like damn, a word that means so much is not enough? That's deep

FunkMistress said:

i'm testin' positive and i'll pee some more



pray tell prince, where exactly will u pee
once the cup is full

IstenSzek said:

i imagine he'd just keep on peeing in the cup...i don't think he'd pull an r. kelly and start peeing on folks.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

still. i don't wanna hold that cup once it's full.

i'd be like "prince yo, stop peeing man"

IstenSzek said:

he'd prolly tell you to pour a little bit outta the cup...then he'd pee more...or he'd have like a bunch of those urine sample cups and keep filling 'em--



















...wait a minute, wtf am i doing sitting here talking to you about prince taking an eternal whizz?! i feel weird now

IstenSzek said:

why the heck would you be holding the cup?

origmnd said:

Really? 'cause I'm seeing that people are talking of pissin'

Prince is deep, for sure.

Revolution said:

it ALSO shows his unique sense of humour
blended with sensitivity and eroticism.

wonder505 said:

Yes. I love this part.

MantuaPharoah said:

Yeah, those lines are definitely up there...the way he sings them and the background vocals are just awesome.

I like the lines

'Who'd allow a face to be soft as a flower?' from TMBGITW and

'Y'know the Kama Sutra, I could rewrite it...in half as many words' from We Can Funk

I miss his great lyrics

Handclapsfingasnapz said:
