Have Prince's lyrics ever felt like they apply to you?

They have with me.

I ain’t got no money
I ain’t like those other guys you hang around
And it’s kinda funny
But they always seem to let you down
And I get discouraged
’cause I never see you anymore
And I need your love, babe yeah
That’s all I’m living for, yeah
I didn’t wanna pressure you, baby
But all I ever wanted to do
I wanna be your lover
I wanna be the only one that makes you come running
I wanna be your lover
I wanna turn you on, turn you out, all night long, make you shout
Oh, lover! yeah
I wanna be the only one you come for

Like those lyrics really apply to me, because in school there's this girl I really liked last year and there were a lot of hints she liked me as well. But now it's a new year and we don't have any classes anymore so I get discouraged because I don't really see her much anymore, and now she's hanging out with a lot of boys that aren't like me, ugly assholes, and they really do always seem to let her down. And I do wanna be her lover, but not pressure her, which is probably why I'm too shy to do anything. Listening to the lyrics in depth, it's scary how much the I wanna Be Your Lover lyrics apply to me. Anybody else have this for any Prince song?

Anyway, ignore all posts above this except the first one I made as the topic starter. I seriously have no clue what the fuck that guy meant lol , like saying that you have to believe in Jesus to win a girl back or something.. I dunno. Anyway, has anyone else felt Prince's lyrics have felt like they applied to you?

Yeah I have, and I feel like the song you mentioned applies to me, too. There are lots of parts to Prince's music that I find have some resonance with me and that's what makes them, for me anyway, so good. I find he sums up my emotions when things are going badly, even in an uptempo song like I Wanna Be Your Lover better than other artists. The way he describes love in a positive light keep me looking forward though, i'd like to have more of a connection with those songs as well at some point.

This really related to the relationship I used to have with my daughter's father. rolleyes

Strange Relationship

I guess U know me well, I don't like winter,
But I seem 2 get a kick out of doing U cold.
Oh, what the hell, U always surrender,
What's this strange relationship that we hold on 2?
Baby I just can't stand 2 see U happy,
More than that I hate 2 see U sad.
Honey if U left me I just might do something rash,
What's this strange relationship...





This is a song that has been recently applying to someone in my life, and therefore been on constant playback! batting eyes

The Greatest Romance Ever Sold

So what do U know, U and me,
Finally face 2 face.
Checking each other up and down,
In all of the obvious places.
Was there ever a reason 4 us 2 be apart?
The air that fills up this room says, "Not hardly."
So this is where U end, and U and I begin ...
The greatest romance that's ever been sold.




There are so many... I manage to find a Prince song for any mood or situation that I'm in, that fits to a 'T'. IMO, you can't do that with very many artists. nod
