I don't really remember all that, but, the first Prince song I ever heard was "I Feel For You". That song gives me such a high feeling.  | |

The medium size black CDs with the big hole in the middle. 
No, seriously, 45s were vinyl singles. They are called 45s because of the speed on the turntable, which is 45. Albums were 33. For all the grandmothers out there, before albums and 45s, there were 78s.....but you ain't even going to find a turntable these days with the speed to play them.

You must respect the 45. Without it we wouldn't have the infamous Prince b-side. | |
