Prince, Anal Stimulation, Sperm, and denial of the mutually exclusive forces of sex and God.



Prince is a genius. Forever will he be defined as a genius. There is no stupid slip up over gay-marriage, women’s rights, or self-describe slavery, that will ever dampen the fact that he is a musical force to be contended with now and for many future generations to come.


But long before the eagle eye of his lyrics turned to corporate manipulation of the record industry or the evils and perils of straying from God’s will in a dogmatic sense, Prince’s genius also expressed itself lyrically.

Where the rest of the world sought to make distinctions between the divine and the profane as diametrically opposed values, the Prince of the 80s said they were part of the same sexual-God energy. He even coined a phrase for it--LoveSexy.

The current day Prince may appear to be the preacher who summons God’s will through his preaching, but the old Prince was the preacher’s daughter who still believed in god, but snook out of the house every chance she got so she could give you some seriously mad-crazy cock suckin fun behind the skating rink on a Saturday night--But you knew damned well she’d be wiping her chin and hands clean at church the next morning without so much as one ounce of guilt. You go girl!!!! Or should I say, you go Prince!!!

In songs like , Get Off where Prince said, “Move you big ass ‘round this way so eye can work on the zippa baby![/i], Prince wasn’t saying it just for sake of shock value. Indeed in the chorus to this booty-lovin athem, Prince says “Let a woman B a woman and a Man B a man!”--he’s not just saying it as a matter of sexual preference. He’s talking about Gods divine design for male and female--don’t drown in guilt over it. Don’t be repressive to it. Revel in it, but in a mature, respectful way. He’s talking about a pecking order handed down from Jesus W. H. Christ himself. What Prince is saying is that the sexual play, so long as it is consentual and uplifting, is very much in line with God’s plan for men and women. He even states “I’ll only call you after if you say I can” bringing home the point that all things should be consensual and mutually respectful--but at the end of the day, it’s perfectly ok to bury your trimmed beard and typhoon do in some seriously delicious ass.

Not even sperm excaped Prince’s determination to bring together the supposed opposing forces of sex and the Divine. In Glam Slam Prince says, “Cum a butterfly straight on your skin. You go for me and eye come again!”. Again, this is not Prince being nasty to just be nasty. He’s trying to point out how spiritually uplifting sex can be if it’s done in a loving, non-selfish manner. In a sense, one could even picture that their skin is the church, and sperm is holy water--showering you with spiritual energy.


I know this quazi-philosophical elements may be too much for some, and to others, a bit amateurish and not well thought-out. But like John Lennon’s Imagine the beauty and genius of his lyrics isn’t in how well thought out they are, but in their idealistic purity--in their...dare I say it, Innocence.


And if that doesn’t make your butthole pucker up, and your hands reach towards heaven at the same time, I don’t know what will.
