December/Death

Hi Ya'll

I have noticed that in a few songs, Prince mentions somebody who died in December who was it?

Songs: Last December
Another Lonely Xmas

dont have a post-card to hand but if i did i would write upon it, "THEY'RE ONLY SONGS"

hope this helps.
Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
woot!

In Last December, Prince doesn't mention somebody dying - he poses questions (to a third party or the listener) asking what they would do if their last December came.

Prince commented in the Ash The Artist online interview in 1998 that the storyline in 'Another Lonely Christmas' was fictional.

I did wonder about this also...knowing that the beginning he sings..."If your last December came, what would you do.? And later the song says..."Did you ever find the reason why you had to die.? I always kind of put Jesus into the song...as a crucified and ascended man...although I realize that is just my interpretation...

Prince has a fantastic imagination and uses this to great effect lots of times.
