After seeing that, I've thought of the song, as he said... as him telling this to himself... he's definitely pampering himself here... "Oh, I'm so good... there's no one else like me... i'm the best u'll ever find"... something like that.

Cocky/arrogant or w/e... he got me to laugh when I heard him say that

DreamyPopRoyalty said:

yes, he is quite confident.. he knows he's sexy lol .. i dont believe he's conceited (not to sound confusing) but he is confident and there's nothing wrong with that..

Flowerz said:

yeah, people think he's selfish and arrogant... but that's how the media portrays him... deep down, I dont think he is either... but he's got a lot of confidence
a lot of us wish we had that confidence, I know I do

How bout'..."Whoze that knockin' on our door? didn't we throw u out b4?"

Flowerz said:

I forgot about that one...
Now, I wanna watch it

Don't get my seat all wet.

I like when Prince gets cocky. LOL. It's sexy.

I like when he does that "Electric Man" line.

"My friends call me Prince and all my ladies call me the Electric Man...plug in the socket..."

I trip out on that everytime I hear it. I know he does it in concert,has he ever made a studio version of it?

DreamyPopRoyalty said:

I have to agree, I think he is a very confident person, I know personally how people can take it as arrogance because I am a confident person,and people have taken me the wrong way most of my life,our society does not understand what self love really is, so it is mistaken for all kinds of negative beliefs...

verse 2 from IIWTMIYL (Musicology album)

Was that u that I saw outside the liquor store
Waitin' on that fool to purchase what you been dyin' 4
Never thought I'd see a drop of spirit ever bring you down
"Now u got that triflin' barracuda hangin' round
Hangin' round your neck like a cheap gold chain
He don't deserve to say that he ever knew yo' name
Much less he get to smell the perfume I gave ya
Please don't tell me that ya'll got down

And lawdy don't that seem like forever and a day ago, huh?

That's one thing that's still good about a Prince song - you can be cocky and not have to curse. And this is just one example. He was always extremely free and ballsy with his words...YEAY!

What make a man wanna rule the world
Make him man enough to say he 50-50 girl...

from "Arrogance" on the Symbol album...

that one's a good one, too.

they say these things always come in threes:

"Y2K not today
I write a check and the bank bounce!"

from Prettyman

"on the 7th day He made me..."

how much more cocky can you get?

".....a blow job don't mean blow"

I really doesn't get much cockier than that.

It might have been some of the other elements in the video or in the remix of this song... but I hated it at first... because he was talking about himself in a way that I didn't agree with.
The lyrics seemed all wrong to me at first... see I knew people thought he was arrogant, but I didnt think he thought of himself as arrogant.

But things change and when I got the album, I was a sucker for the cool music he had goin' in the background. Some of his cockiest lyrics are here

"All the sisters like it when ya lick 'em, on the knees
Don't believe me? Do it once then stop, they'll be beggin' "please, please, please!"

"What does that have to do with the funk? Nothin'. But who's payin' the bills?
If ya don't wanna, lick my knees.. I'm sho yo mama will."


That verse never fails to elicit a smirk from me. Not his cockiest (I thought you meant kookiest, at first), but I think it's in there.
