Though it's never really been his style, I think it'd be interesting if Prince did a few songs about something more mundane. Cake has a song called Dime that's about...well, a dime. It's brilliant.

Something I wish he'd sing about less? I don't think there's any topic he does that I dislike enough to want him to stop, but I do wish he'd stop using modern slang in his lyrics. If he doesn't regularly say it himself in conversation, it just sounds silly and awkward in song, like an old guy trying a bit too hard to be hip. Which just might be the case.

Truth

More politics (must be well-researched and well-educated).

The evils of misogyny and objectification.

I like Love and Injustice, he's very honest and passionate about both.

i'd like him to sing about sex more.

Yeah well...

be careful what you wish for.

I think it would b cool if Prince wrote and performed an autobiographical song about his career from the 70's 2 now.Something like the unofficial "Old friends 4 sale"Somethiong he could maybe summarise the past nearly 30yrs of his musical journey in 2 3 or 4 minutes of blissful sounds(tho knowing Prince it would b an album)...If y'all can dig that
A little something so all of his admirers could maybe understand

Less about stuff like ass-lickin'.

Well....
that's more of what I would like to see his fans post less about.

More autistic people

I'd like to hear the truth about his relationship with the one true god, the won not written about in the scriptures.

Like a Prince-centric We Didn't Start the Fire or American Pie?

I like Prince to write songs condemming the negatives of the world like dictatership, murder, rape, violence. Some sign of the times like songs(without preaching) and cool funky rock numbers.

What about songs about his real life;
aknowledging his coldness in the past, about past loves, band members. Basically real heart felt stuff that people can relate to and feel some humility from prince; that would be cool. That wouldn't happen though because Prince doesn't talk about the past or even acknowledge it; he said so himself!

LESS; PREACHING, PREJUDICE

I think he is going in the right direction when it comes to the subjects he sings about nowadays....more political and more current events, which in essence is what singers should sing about....kinda like going back to the 70s, with singers like Joni Mitchell, Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan etc etc
but in his own funky style of course....
WE DON'T WANT NO FOLKSY PRINCE!

and I would never ever want him to stop singing about love, passion and its effects on the heart, mind and soul....
no one expresses that as good as he does.

more about his personal experiences on a spiritual level or interactions w/ other ppl as it possibly relates to enlightenment. less sex and hooking up, physical attractions, etc.

Less Religion.

More God.
