Have you noticed this?

I know that Prince used his symbol in Purple Rain and I recently saw a video from 1985 where he was referencing New Power.

I was wondering if anybody else knows of similar instances where he used something way before the public really understood it..or before he turned it into something greater.

Discuss.

What is your main problem?

He used the combination male/female symbol on the 1999 album cover.

It's at the bottom of the first "9", and upside down:

It was the performance of baby I'm a star at the Grammys in 1985..towards the end.
