~Somebody's Somebody~ ~Somebody's Somebody~
At this time in Prince's life, watiting 4 the right love to come. This song seems to state clearly, the kind of woman Prince is watiting 4. Here are a few scattered lines from the song... Could U be this Someone, for Prince's Somebody? ~Tonight I wanna be somebody's somebody ~Tongiht I wanna belong 2 someone ~Someone that'll do it till the job gets done ~A pretty house don't make a home...(?) ~Someone 2 hold at midnight ~Someone 2 console when things aren't goin' right ~Someone 2 make dinner sometime ~Someone 2 cure the lonely walls at a lonely 2am ~Someone that doesn't wanna wait another day ~Someone deep in love ~Someone Prince can call all his. I'm deep in love...that's at least a beginning. Maybe the rest will just miraculously happen... "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |

I never I was and I guess never I will but I know everybody needs it, Prince deserves to be somebody´s somebody, I hope he finds that person Forever in my life... | |

what ever happened to loving yourself?
that is the greatest gift of all few people realize it though, so they depend on someone else (Somebody) | |

"He Ain't Heavy..." Children depend on their parents, people depend on their employers...No one man is an island...we are all thankful to have eachother. God didn't create 6 Billion people and have them all a million miles apart, did He? Maybe Independence doesn't really exist. "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |

This is an amazing song... even the live cut on the single Holy River... is amazingly special.
Indeed, a pretty house don't make a home. I love this song... everything about it! One of my favorites from Emancipation. The public is squeezin' you kiddo. You'd better kick ass on your next album or else! | |

That reminds me of Luther's song..."A house is not a home." It is love and sweet conversation that goes into the walls that make a home... Beautiful fabrics, and marble statues seem to dress up the place... When U think about it, It's the love miles U put on the love seat, and not the pattern right? "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |

But indeed, a house is not a home without the one you love, and warmth. I certainly agree. Also, the song by Luther is a CLASSIC! The public is squeezin' you kiddo.

thanks for sharing. I know prince's somebody will find him....and keep him a very long time. :shade: I'll tell U something profound...I had 2 put the book down...It's called, "Echoes." It's about the origin of an echo....where does an echo begin? here is a piece..."Is it a matter of a proper name, of a name that would name the thing proper, the thing itself? Can there be an echo itself, expecially considering that an echo is precisely something always also improper, something that is never simply itself but an echo of something else, of something different from it. I still can't figure it out, and I pray and pray and pray for an answer. "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |

This is probably among my favorite Prince ballads and he's got plenty of them. I'm thinking of putting a mix together, but I might make it in2 two discs. One is for his ballads in general and another is for all of his R&B ballads because there's a lot of them.
This song in particular just makes me smile. It feels so down-to-earth. The music is beautiful, the lyrics are exquisite. Amazing from start to finish had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone | |

It sounds like he's just horny as all get out and wants to play house for a night. It's 2am!!!! He's just fantasizing...being a boy....It will all be over in the morning....back to work...He says "tonight" not forever....
Or he deperately needs to be needed and wanted and he's talking to his fans...being your fantasy.....I don't think he was talking about settling down and chilling.... he doesn't know how.....he never sleepss!! He thrives on his fame...being wanted..... It is his girl... | |

What does snake language mean?
How far back do U thing a soul goes back to find their first love? Even if U consider the talk about Adam having a wife named Lilly that was born at the same time yet not from Adam...and due to her striving to be his exact equal...was left. God then created his mate from Adam. Although these two are born of the same person and are equal in the sense that they would love eachother as equals, Eve took her place as looking at her man as the final decision maker.. Maybe the women in Prince's life were not respecting him as the head of the Table... Prince is waiting 4 his Eve. "The Greatest Romance." "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |

Sweetheart.....in reference to the lyrics you posted...Prince's "Eve" is someone he wants "tonight" at "2 am".....that's not a soulmate he's looking 4. No man that respects a woman would even put that fact (if it exists) in the song. It's slick talk.... to put it bluntly...a booty call...he just makes it sound real pretty and nice and romantic...Prince himself has made his life on purpose impossible for him to have what he is singing about. He's not trapped there...he wants to be right where he is.... alone for now..the moment...and to think any kind of love or woman could change that is not being fair to herself or to him...The words "to call all mine" pretty much means he wants to possess her as he has most of his situations with woman....parallel souls coast along side each other as one. They don't possess one another..... The more honest lyrics in the songs I believe are "do it until the job gets done." [Edited 10/27/08 20:40pm] | |

Love like the wind
To Love another Another has loved Is to Love a lover It will forever be That the song of Love Has been danced before It was another Step in time Along the forest floor Beneath God’s sky Where people say hello And goodbye When we Love a lover And we see the wind We do not command the wind To be here or there Nor do we ask the wind Why it kissed one flower Before another Love is the guide And the wind whispers I will follow To Love another Another has loved Is to Love the wind And when the wind Has changed direction And has left the trees barren It is natural That Love will find Another spring To drink from her well Love like the wind T. P.S. Of course it's mine whose else would it be? "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |

Madison, Prince isn't acting like a snake in "Somebody's Somebody." I can see where an alluring man is singing in some of Prince's lyrics, but this song is sincere in my opinion.
I had never heard of snake language before...I guess most of what a man can come up with 2 seduce someone has become transparent to me. I can see right through that stuff. "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |

So if Prince sings that song some night and dedicates it to you or say even speaks those words to you personally.... you would take them literally and sincere??? It's a song.....that's his job to write and produce songs....and sell them.....you just bought it... [Edited 10/30/08 19:28pm] | |

I do believe Prince wants someone that loves him deeply, I don't think anybody wants the behaviors that can lead 2 a divorce. I do believe Prince wants someone to make him dinner and not have 2 go out all of the time. I do believe that Prince wants to call someone all his. I think Prince wants a woman to give him her undivided attention...U know what I mean...I really don't believe that Prince is in the mood for a flirty wife. "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |
