Send Prince a song... The other thread is loaded with video's that I don't have the patience to watch...so I was hoping we could keep this title's, lyrix, and artist's.

I was listening to Luther this morning...realizing how often I get out of bed in the morning, and Prince is on my mind...Sad, but true...I'm going on 29 years of it...I listened to "Planet Earth" first.

So this morning I would like to send Prince..."The Rush." by Luther Vandross.
Some of the words...to this fabulous song...

Tell me, are u there?
Could it be that you're the answer to my prayer.
See, I've prayed for peace and love
Like so many of us do
Then I prayed to find someone like you
Up in the morning
Fell out of my bed
Worn out, I couldn't sleep
Thoughts of you filled my head
How could it be
This is scaring me

Seems every time I try
To rest my heart is when
The rush is back again
Maybe this time I'll
Make it work somehow
Guess I'm gonna find out....

I get a rush
And it's love for sure
What else can it be
Something beckons me
And I go back for more
Ooo such a rush
Can't pass love by
What else can I do
Something tells me to
Give it one more try.

I'm going to send the Song "Stalker" to Prince. It will help remind him that he is the first thought on some peoples minds when they wake up.....

I know what time you will arive
Cause i've been waiting for you every night
I know you can't see me
My heart skips a beat

I hear footsteps down the hall
I've beeen waiting right behind your door
No one will hear
Don't you worry my dear

It's your eyes, your smile
It's your hair, your face
It's your life

I cut the cord on your phone
I've been secretly walking you home
I know you can't see me
My heart skips a beat

Under your bed is my secret place
At night i keep the hair out of your face
No one will hear
Don't you worry my dear

It's your eyes, your smile
It's your hair, your face
It's your life

will send Prince "Unbelievable" by EMF as thats what think of him !
Who does "Stalker" ??

Sometimes squirrel, u amaze me..because your sarcasm is beneath my love and support 4 Prince...I was 13 years old when I got a crush...I've seen Prince in concert 5 times...because my financial responsibilities were elsewhere.

I know in my heart that Prince is happy that I am around...Prince and I have spent 29 years....at least 500 miles apart...and if you think that I stalk Prince...you are a silly fool. At least my posts are kind...

My love is not shallow...and I am proud of my dedication to a man that has brought beautiful music into my life. So another song 4 Prince....

"She doesn't mind." Luther.

Tame said:

This has been said a lot about me.

Today I will send..."God Watches Over Us." by Maxi Priest.

Yellow Bird is a island song from my youth...

Yellow Bird

Yellow bird, up high in banana tree.
Yellow bird, you sit all alone like me.
Did your lady friend leave the nest again?
That is very bad, Makes me feel so sad.
You can fly away, In the sky away
You more lucky than me.

I also have a handsome friend,
(he not with me today.)
They all the same, the handsome friends
Make 'em the nest. Then they fly away.

Yellow bird, up high in banana tree.
Yellow bird, you sit all alone like me.
Better fly away, In the sky away,
Picker coming soon, Pick from night to noon.
Black and yellow you, Like banana too
They may pick you some day.

Wish that I was a yellow bird,
I fly away with you.
But I am not a yellow bird
So I sit, nothing else to do.

One more island song....

If I Had The Wings of a Dove.....

If I had the wings of a dove,
If I had the wings of a dove,
Well, I would fly, fly away, fly away
And be at rest. Psalm 55:6 - And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.
If I had the wings of a dove,
If I had the wings of a dove,
Well, I would fly, fly away, fly away
And be at rest.

Oh, since I have no wings, since I have no wings, since I have no wings,
I'm gonna sing, sing, sing,
Since I have no wings, since I have no wings, since I have no wings,
I'm gonna sing, sing, sing,

If I had the wings of a dove,
If I had the wings of a dove,
I would fly, fly away, fly away
And be at rest.

/instrumental break/

Since I have no wings, since I have no wings, since I have no wings,
I'm gonna sing, sing, sing,
Since I have no wings, since I have no wings, since I have no wings,
I'm gonna sing, sing, sing, sing.

If I had the wings of a dove - imagine me,
If I had the wings of a dove,
Well, I would fly, fly away, fly away
And I would be at rest.


When I looked this song up it said it was sung by Bobby Marley. He must have sung a version of it because I have it on a 331/2 ??? LP made in the Bahamas before I was born. Prince likes Bobby so I'm sending it along.

All my life I've sung this song and never knew it was in reference to a psalm....
Psalm 55:6 - And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.

2day I will send Prince a song by
Earth Wind & Fire~

You're Not Alone
Open Your Mind

In a way its a, a matter of time
I will not worry for you, You'll be just fine
Take my thoughts with you, and when you look behind
You will surely see a face that you recognize

You're not alone I'll wait till the end of time
Open your mind, Surely it's plain to see
You're not alone, I'll wait till the end of time for you
Open your mind, Surely it's time to be with me

It is the distance
that makes life a little hard
two minds that once were close
now so many miles a part
I will not falter though
Ill hold on 'till your home
safely back where you belong
See how our love has grown

You're not alone, I'll wait till the end of time
Open your mind, Surely its plane to see
You're not alone, Ill wait 'till the end of time
Open your mind, baby theres time for me and you

You're not alone, ill wait till the end of time
Open your mind, Surely its plane to see

You're not alone
You're not alone
ill wait till the end of time

open your mind
surely there time to be with me

It has nothing to do with Teddy!
I just heard this song and liked it
and there's message within the lyrics
just 'cause I enjoy this song,
so....why not?

Besides, Tame wouldn't let me just post the video
so....

Smooth Operator by Sade

Diamond life, lover boy
He move in space with minimum waste and maximum joy
City lights and business nights
When you require streetcar desire for higher heights

No place for beginners or sensitive hearts
When sentiment is left to chance
No place to be ending but somewhere to start

No need to ask
He's a smooth operator
Smooth operator, smooth operator
Smooth operator

Coast to coast, LA to Chicago, western male
Across the north and south, to Key Largo, love for sale

Face to face, each classic case
We shadow box and double cross
Yet need the chase

A license to love, insurance to hold
Melts all your memories and change into gold
His eyes are like angels but his heart is cold

No need to ask
He's a smooth operator
Smooth operator, smooth operator
Smooth operator

Coast to coast, LA to Chicago, western male
Across the north and south, to Key Largo, love for sale

Smooth operator, smooth operator (5x)

http://www.youtube.com/wa...1Aj2yODys0


I think of Prince evertime I hear this song, 'cause he's a smooth operator.

what sort of music does prince listen to anyway???

wildgoldenhoney said:

lol but has it been translated from Chinese or something?

Oh good, just the thread I was looking for

Placebo - My Sweet Prince

Here's the lyrics - but you should listen to it, fantastic!

My Sweet Prince

Never thought you'd make me perspire
Never thought I'd do you the same
Never thought I'd fill with desire
Never thought I'd feel so ashamed

Me and the dragon can chase all the pain away
So before I end my day, remember...
My sweet prince, you are the one
My sweet prince
you are the one

Never thought I'd have to retire
Never thought I'd have to abstain
Never thought all this could backfire
Close up the hole in my vain

Me and my valuable friend
can fix all the pain away
So before I end my day
remember
My sweet prince
You are the one
My sweet prince
You are the one

Never thought I'd get any higher
Never thought you'd f*ck with my brain
Never thought all this could expire
Never thought you'd go break the chain

Me and you baby
still flush all the pain away
So before I end my day
remember
My sweet prince
you are the one

My sweet prince
you are the one.....

Adele - Chasing pavements

Ive made up my mind
dont need to think it over
if im wrong i am right
dont need to look no further
this aint lust i know this is love

but if i tell the world
i'll never say enough
cos it was not said to you
and thats exactly what i need to do
if i end up with you

should i give up
or should i just keep chasing pavements
even if it leads no where,
or would it be a waste
even if i knew my place should i leave it there.
should i give up
or should i just keep chasing pavements
even if it leads nowhere

i build myself up
and fly around in circles
waiting as my heart drops
and my back begins to tingle
finally could this be it

or should i give up
or should i just keep chasing pavements
even if it leads no where,
or would it be a waste
even if i knew my place should i leave it there.
should i give up
or should i just keep chasing pavements
even if it leads nowhere

yeaaah ehh

should i give up
or should i just keep chasing pavements
even if it leads no where,
or would it be a waste
even if i knew my place
should i leave it there

should i give up
or should i just keep on chasing pavements
should i just keep on chasing pavements

ohhhh ahhhh

should i give up
or should i just keep chasing pavements
even if it leads nowhere
or would it be a waste
even if i knew my place
should i leave it there

should i give up
or should i just keep chasing pavements
even if it leads nowhere

Dionne Warwick - All the in the world

In your eyes I see only one - find me the place for us
That's where I belong. There we rise - your blory and mine.
Your pain is over now
I make you shine - still believing:
All the love in the world won't take me away from you

My love is stronger I am what you make me.
All the love in the world won't take you away from me

In all my wonder I forever lay down here with you.
I find when love slips away
reach out for all you can
Before it's too late
there you fly returnin' to me
Out of your darkest nights I stand alone - still believing:
All the love in the world won't take me away from you

My love is stronger I forever lay down here with you.
My love is true
all your darkest nights - I stand alone - still believing:
All the love in the world won't take me away from you

My love is stronger I forever lay down here with you.
All the love in the world won't take me away from you

Ahhh....CJ - both beautiful songs, you've made me go all mushy...

I'll send Prince another song in a little bit...but the reason why I asked for a thread without video's...is because, the video made by another person...lends to a vision...that can take away from the words sometimes...and the other send Prince a song...got so overloaded with video's that I had problems scrolling on the thread...I'm sure it's my computer...

For Your Mind Robbie Nevil


Do you like philosophy
What are your political views
I really think that I...
Could learn alot from you
I never even noticed
The way u dress
That was never my main interest

I'm not after your body,
Although u do look nice
I don't want your body
I only want u
I really only want u for your mind

FOR YOUR MIND
FOR YOUR MIND

Do you like to meditate
Do you analyze your dreams
You know all the other girls
Only want one thing

I'm not after your body
That's all good and fine
I don't want your body
I really only want you

FOR YOUR MIND
FOR YOUR MIND
EVEN THOUGH, LOOKIN THAT GOOD
SHOULD BE A CRIME
I REALLY ONLY WANT YOU
FOR YOUR MIND

I'm not after your body
Although it would be nice
There's so much more to you honey
I only want you
I really only want you

FOR YOU MIND.

Faithfully - Journey (Lovin a music man ain't always what it supposed 2 be)

Keep on Movin - Mtume (Like he'll stop anytime soon)

Everything I Can't Have - Robin Thicke (Says it all)

You are the sunshine of my life
Thats why Ill always be around,
You are the apple of my eye,
Forever youll stay in my heart

I feel like this is the beginning,
Though Ive loved you for a million years,
And if I thought our love was ending,
Id find myself drowning in my own tears.

You are the sunshine of my life,
Thats why Ill always stay around,
You are the apple of my eye,
Forever youll stay in my heart,

You must have known that I was lonely,
Because you came to my rescue,
And I know that this must be heaven,
How could so much love be inside of you?

You are the sunshine of my life, yeah,
Thats why Ill always stay around,
You are the apple of my eye,
Forever youll stay in my heart.

Stevie Wonder

Tame, you mentioning the vids made me read your original post for the first time. I only read, send Prince a song...part 2

I'll keep it in mind but I have to say that hearing a song makes me like it a lot better.

I'm hoping that the songs I'm sending...Prince knows...that's all.

Anastacia and Eros Ramazzotti

Adesso no, non voglio più difendermi
Supererò dentro di me gli ostacoli
I miei momenti più difficili
Per te

There is no reason, there is no rhyme
It's crystal clear
I hear your voice
And all the darkness disappears
Everytime I look into your eyes
You make me love you
Questo inverno finirà
And I do truly love you
Fuori e dentro me
How you make me love you
Con le sue difficoltà
And I do truly love you

I belong to you, you belong to me
Forever

Want you
Baby I want you
And I thought that you should know
That I believe
And your the wind that's underneath my wings
I belong to you, you belong to me

Ho camminato su pensieri ripidi
You're my fantasy
Per solitudini e deserti aridi
You're my gentle breeze
Al ritmo della tua passione ora io vivrò
And I'll never let you go
L'amore attraverserò
You're the piece that makes me whole
Le onde dei suoi attimi
I can feel you in my soul
Profondi come oceani

Vincerò per te le paure che io sento
Quanto bruciano dentro le parole che non ho più detto, sai...

Oh..
Want you
Baby I want u
And I thought that you should know
That I believe

Lampi nel silenzio siamo noi yeah
I belong to you, you belong to me

You're the wind that's underneath my wings
I belong to you, you belong to me
Yeah hey yeah he

Adesso io ti sento
I will belong forever, to you

Nice song! I like her accent a lot, just like Adele, a British accent is so cute.
