Can someone please shed some light on the meaning of the numbers 3121 used by Prince? THANKS

Thats his address in LA.

I can't believe that anyone still believes this is his address!

Errm, because it is.

no it isn't his address. He moved to the house in LA, and after coming up with the concept of 3121, he THEN put 3121 on the front of the house in LA. He no longer resides at that house. That house was a lease that was up last year.

well then it was for a year.

LOL true dat! But, the house isn't the meaning behind as so many people believed. I don't think we will ever know the true meaning behind it...just as is the case with many of his songs.

Puh-lease! All his songs are about sex!

It adds up to 7 which is a significant number for Prince.

rainbowchild said:

Yeah, but that's all boring religious bullshit stemming from 7 being the perfect number in the Bible. If that's all it is, that's so dull.

He released the album on 3/21. Mystery solved.

Prince looks no older than 31, and dates women around the age of 21.

Don't cha wanna come?

I think it's quite clearly a date. You see? You think it is 2007. That's only according to one calender. According to lesser followed calenders, the year is diffrent. I believe it has something to do with the mIan calender, though I'm not exactly sure. It would be a good thing to discuss with Prince himself.

3121 certainly ISN'T the adress of his (former) house in LA.

Thats a mistake often made. The number was something like 1350 or 1490, the numbers in that street dont go as far 3000+.

Indeed, he put that number on the gate to the house, but it wasnt the adress.

The most obvious explaination to me still seems to be a biblical reference, which chapter or part of the bible he is aiming at remains unclear, but considering him being a JW, and his earlier use of religious symbols (the O+> being a reference to both egyptic religion and the hermetic tradition) i think the most obvious answer lies in the christian bible.

I also considered 3121 being a date, yes, thinking about the mayan predictions of 'the end of the world' in 2012, but considering the fact that Prince has turned to one of the most dogmatic forms of christiniaty, becoming a jehovah witness, its way more plausible that 3121 is a biblical reference.
