He was not referring to himself with this line. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

what does that mean? how childish. I was asking why that song could not have been from his own perspetive with the messiah analogy used as a metaphor. I think he was talking about himself. not maybe literally him, prince but from a lovers perspective. walk with crooked shoes www.myspace/syblepurplelishous | |

I have put together my own cd of jams where Prince said "I am" something or whatever, in a song. I was only going with song titles, not just one line or phrase. I used:
The One The Golden Lover Pretty Man Party Man Electric Man Mr. Happy Mr. Goodnight My Name Is Prince Cybersingle I am the DJ Baby, I'm A Star Violet the Organ Grinder No particular order, but is cool to listen to! Did I miss any song? I just remembered, "Movie Star". That is a cool song. I'm going to go back and add that track. [Edited 7/29/08 21:58pm] [Edited 7/31/08 12:28pm] | |

Remember that one song from the truth cd, one of your tears? Prince said,"Sometimes I wanna die and come back as one of your tears." | |

there's a few in I Would Die 4 U.
"I'm not a woman, I'm not a man / I am something that you'll never understand" "I'm not your lover, I'm your friend / I am something that you'll never comprehend" is referring to something he's not "I'm your Messiah" "I'm not a human, I'm a dove / I'm your conscience, I am love" ----- "U know what else I am? U know what else I am, I am? I'm a good kisser 2." [Edited 7/29/08 13:52pm] | |

Race in a space I mark human (meaning human is the race, not black or white). Who the hell is Mark Human anyway? Just somewhere in the middle,
