Recurring themes in Prince's music. I mean, love and sex are easy, but the other themes?
Relationships? Violence? Masturbation (as in a single sexual act)? Cars? What are his recurring themes? And let's find them in his body of work. Lemme do; WAR Party Up Ronnie, Talk 2 Russia 1999 Live 4 Love Cinnamon Girl . [Edited 8/26/07 12:24pm] [Edited 8/26/07 12:24pm] | |

Would "I got a brand new dance" count as a theme? That line gets used a lot by Prince. | |

More than one of his videos are suppose to be him "dreaming."
In several songs he's wanted to be "the best you ever had..." I'm firmly planted in denial | |
