That is really kewl that Bette appreciates P's humor and wit.
He doesn't get enough credit for his wit and intelligence. Even if you don't like a song by Prince or even if the song is kind of trite the lyrics are very clever and witty. 'Raspberry Beret' is just one of the many P songs with great and clever lyrics. "The first time I saw the cover of Dirty Mind in the early 80s I thought, 'Is this some drag queen ripping on Freddie Prinze?'" - Some guy on The Gear Page | |

Nice, Bette is a gem. 
She right too, a lot of people do not pay attention to the humour in Prince's work. . [Edited 10/7/08 9:00am] | |

I adore Bette Midler, and She has a beautiful heart as well as incredible talent. I've loved her in concert and own several of her movies.
I am fortunate to own a copy of her book, "The Saga of Baby Divine," That was signed in a San Francisco hospital, when My Uncle who has passed away was enduring treatment for AIDS. She came to visit him. My Uncle was a Pharmacist and "Barbery Coast Clogger." I have also signed his square on the Quilt that travels. I miss him dearly. "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |

'Raspberry Beret' is just one of the many P songs with great and clever lyrics. Randy Newman was another older artist who commented on Prince's wit in his writing. "Guitar" is a current song where some of the lines made me chuckle. | |
