Tavis Smiley Show 2-nite

Where is info on the Prince interview with Tavis Smiley tonight? I don't have cable and wasn't able to watch. I heard he said he grew up with epilepsy, and I never knew that about him. Can someone give me a link or at least a summary?

These were repeats of the previous interviews he and Bria did after the cds were released.
When eye go 2 a Prince concert or related event it's all heart up in the house but when eye log onto this site and the miasma of bitchiness is completely overwhelming!

I saw a video years ago where Prince "spoke" these lyrics during the intro of a song..."Epileptic till the age of seven, cord rapped around my neck, (something, something, something), Heaven surely has marked the deck". I obviously can't remember it exactly, but I know some orger has seen it and can recall it much better.

From 'The Sacrifice Of Victor':

I was born on a blood stained table
Cord wrapped around my neck
Epilectic 'til the age of 7
I was sure heaven marked the deck

Yep! Thanks...From the "Symbol" cd right? I was just about to paste those lyrics. I knew I had heard it before, but couldn't remember. I'm getting rusty on my Prince. I'm going to play some older Prince to stay sharp!
