hi all,

when I was younger, I was obsessed with the Symbol o(+>. I thought it was the coolest thing anyone did, changing their name to a Symbol. I think it looked fascinating too and I used to draw that thing everywhere...not sure if anyone felt the same. I was actually disappointed to see Prince revert back to his normal name in 2000 LOL.

Anyway, I challenge you to name all the Prince releases (both singles and albums) that feature the Symbol as the PROMINENT, CENTRAL and MAIN element of the cover:

So far, I can think of:

o(+> (Both the standard and limited edition).
The Beautiful Experience EP
GOLD Limited Edition CD single
Betcha By Golly Wow CD Single
The Holy River CD Single
Emancipation
Crystal Ball (Back Cover)
The Versace Experience Cassette (!!)




Anything else you guys can think of?

It is also less prominently featured here:

Graffiti Bridge (old version of the Symbol)
Newpower soul (if you count it as a Prince CD)
Rave un2 the joy fantastic

And on the PR cover he has the older version of his symbol O+> on his funkin'beautiful motorcycle

Well I can see this will be a short thread.

It goes back 2 the 1999 album cover. It's on there if U look.

Right, on 1999!

And on the New Power Generation Prince has his O+> necklace.

I didn't mean covers featuring the symbol, there are plenty to mention. I meant covers that feature the Symbol as THE cover. The MAIN element of the cover.
