When ATWIAD came out I LOVED how each song title had a different design. Along with how the singles covers were all a piece of the whole album cover etc. I think the best font is Raspberry Beret. Very cool. "Hyperactive when I was small, Hyperactive now I'm grown, Hyperactive 'till I'm dead and gone"

Close, but no cigar I'm afraid. Thanks a ton for looking, though. Check your orgnotes for your efforts. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

Yeah, I guess Prince liked how the Purple Rain artwork looked with a different font for each song. I prefer the ATWIAD design. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

I was sure I had this one somewhere, but alas it seems I don't
I'm guessing you've tried sites like http://www.identifont.com/ - I did try myself (I've had luck there before), but the results this time were not helpful.
I'll keep thinking...

Thanks. I have tried that site a few times before, but didn't get any responses. Maybe my font queries are too obscure. I'm usually pretty good at font identity, but I'm stumped on these last three.
I'm pretty sure the "Tamborine" font has a name that has something to do with circuses or signage... If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

Raspberry Beret is "Ewie" I'm pretty sure | |

Awesome! Thanks.
Now I need those other two... If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

Updated. Found the Tamborine font. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

Only one more to go! I thought Pop Life would be easy, because of the balloon detailing at the bottom of the letters.... It's stumped me (and my font search tools)!
Fingers crossed for you, squirrel | |

I thought the same thing, but then when SG posted the name of the tamborine font (nice one, btw!!), I realised that they must have edited the first and last parts, because I'd been keeping my eye out for any font that lets you create some kind of "end-flag" character.
The point is, maybe the balloon detailing was added to a more plain font?
It's a long shot, but worth bearing in mind for anyone searching.
That said, even without that detail, I still couldn't find any that match that lettering exactly

^ Thanks you two for looking. I really, really appreciate it. Yeah, I considered that maybe the "highlights" had been added to the Pop Life lettering after the fact, but like Chiq said, that font shape is elusive to say the least. No hits on WTFont either.
Oh, well. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |
