sometimes!

Its nice when you've been singing along for years and it finally hits you what it means... i was a fam since the age of 9! i had to learn lol

Not really, but thats the fun of it!

Read Between The Lines Sometimes

Yes

Most of the time.

While I juggle 17
I will watch them fall
But then I trippd on the hypnotic unwind
So I talked to her with my body.

My answer is no.

Whenever I don't, I like to scream, "Your music makes sense to no one...but yourself!" Makes me feel better.

I believe that I understand most of Prince's lyrix..and what they mean on both a personal level between two people, and what they can mean in general.

For example..."Fury." can be about Prince's personal relationship with one woman, and it can also be about the stereotypical arguments that jealousy leads to.

Literally or like, metaphysical mumbo jumbo shit?

and its back to Donna and Barb.....

when i get an album new for the first time I follow along in the booklet to the lyrics. but sometimes i can't understand. I've been thinking things were one way for years and then i'll read the real lyric and it surprises me how i was wrong.

Sometimes,and sometimes I just got this look on my face ,and think WTH!

I'm still pondering the meaning of the song "It".

i do not understand the lyrics to '7'
still trying to figure them out. now
that i think about it, even though i
love starfish & coffee's vibe, i also
don't understand the lyrics 100%

To understand his lyrics I have found you have to go beyond the mere words being said, you have to go beyond feelings, and be on a spiritual level.

Sometimes I do, some I have to read between lines, some never

It's not easy that's for certain
I still ponder his songs every time I listen to them...

most of the time i do but then dude throws my mind..like 'I guess i should have known by the way you parked your car sideways it wouldnt last' I KNOW what the song is about so dont get at me with the 'WHAT!' BS. Always wanted 2 ask...

that's the one Prince line I don get! is he talkin like she got a big azz or crooked ? if hes talkin literal, then how else u supposed to park a car other than sideways?
the rest of the song was fun 2 figure out when i got older tho.

That line is a bit open to interpretation, I think. Given the tone of the rest of the song, I've always interpreted it as, rather than take the time to park in the driveway, she parks along the street so that as soon as she's done doing what she's doing, she can take off quick and not worry about having to reverse, go back into drive, etc...."Love 'em and leave 'em fast," ya know? Or, they could be making out in a parking lot, and rather than park correctly in a spot, she just parks her car sidways, in several parking spots, so she can leave quickly once she's done.

Either way, I LOVE that line. That one and the deal with the "pocket full of horses" and the lines that come up later about the "place where your horses run free" and the "jockeys that were there before me." Just subliminal.

They can be rather confusing at time, but he also controdicts himself a lot of the time as well.

of course. alot of people do.

Erika2k8 said:

WOW! that shows how off base I was. I thought it had 2 do with the position they were in & she took the lead on making that happen.

what im assuming that the woman he is w/ has had sex w/ alot of men so he's saying that basically he knows that that is the "norm" for her she has sex w/ them and then she leaves so, she parks her car in the easiest and quickest way for her to leave.
