Oh!

Like eye love my guitar....
gettin' dirty at the club again
usually 'round ur waist like a chain but then
eye got that call so eye jumped in my car
eye love u baby, but not like eye love my guitar
not like I love my guitar
u couldn't do it all by urself
u had 2 go and get somebody else
u'r high enough 2 call but cha can't reach the bar
eye love ya baby, but not like eye love my guitar
not like eye love my guitar
eye tried 2 warn ya that it's hard 2 be a star
especially when u'r drivin other people's cars

eye would've given ya mine, but u took it 2 far
eye love ya baby, but not like eye love my guitar
eye no u love me, u wanna b friends
and if u don't at least u need 2 pretend
we're still 2gether even if we don't get that far
eye love u baby, but not like eye love my guitar

listen

eye love u baby, and eye wish u well
eye'll write a letter when eye learn how 2 spell
eye no we planned a trip but then eye fell
n love with something else....

u no the rest

u no eye love u baby,
eye love u baby, but not like eye love my guitar
oh, like eye love my guitar

**Party Up**


umm no...that song is so good that its still relevant today.


The "challenge" was not about the quality of the song, but of the lyrics!

And

Party up - gotta party up
Party up - gotta party up
Party up - gotta party up
Party up - gotta party up
Party up - gotta party up
Party up - gotta party up, babe
Party up - gotta party up {continues in background}
you're gonna have to fight your own damn war
Cuz we don't wanna fight no more


hardly qualifies as Shakespeare-esque imo.

party-up for the win.

Guitar is just goofy, but it knows it. Doesn't strive to be a song with a message.

Plus the self-referential lyric about prince not being able 2 spell makes me giggle...

At almost 50 years old, I don't think he writes songs like this about real women anymore. This is a throwaway, hastily put together diddy with the name "Guitar" and an awkwardly phrased hook.

And yet the song is great.

How about this....

maybe its not speifically directed towards any particular person in his life or ABOUT anyone in his life. maybe its just something based on all his relationships that he has learned.

just some food for thought...considering every1 always thinks a song is about a particular person in his life....what about the man himself.


Per5eph0ne I bet you're right! Prince is singing about himself. Seems likely especially after that new little blurp posted on 3121.com. > Check it out

But what does it mean???

...I scored high in reading comprehension in my cavity prone years lol

My take... his guitar is his dick. He likes getting it off above all else - even his main woman.
We all want the stuff that's found in our wildest dreams.

what does it mean?? a question all of us would like to be answered! haha!
my thoughts:

it might mean he's figured out what he wants in his life with respect to relationships with others and such. he wasnt mature enough to understand what he truely desired until now.

he's using his "guitar" as a metaphor. "eye love you baby, but not like eye love my guitar" seems to me that he wants relationships with substance with an equal amount of respect and love like he has for the instruments in which he plays.
Peace, Love, and some Purple Rain!!

i dont think they are trying to "shut us up" per se, but rather validate the information we are saying OR create more confusion. im leaning towards the latter. whatever it is they are doing it is working b/c its got everyone else in a bit of a fury which is a great marketing technique! haha.

yeah i agre with u..98%
but i think (imo) this is fale information

3121.com said
3121 insiders tell us that Prince has been talking up his new CD 2 friends and colleagues. Some seem 2 have gotten the impression that the first single "Guitar" might b Prince singing 2 himself, the side of him that wants 2 settle down

i agree with you, i never said it was or even sounded true.i perceive it to be fabricated and the fact that they only use a few sentences to state the information. no depth or thought was put into the "spy report." which doesnt make it very valid.

..and yet we are still discussing it!...one word, marketing.
