"Is it silly? No! When the rocketship explodes and everybody still wants to fly."

How ironic that these lyrics are still so happening now. Wonder what Prince thinks at this moment? God bless the families of the lost ones from the space shuttle Columbia!!!

I thought of those lyrics too. It's a so tragic about what happened with the Columbia this morning. My prayers are with the family members of the 7 astronauts.

Peace
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

Well, obviously these lyrics reflect his thoughts about the Challenger explosion, yet it's the American way to dig in and get through tragedies like that and volunteer to put ourselves in harm's way to prove that although tragedies can and do happen... we must continue...

I think it's becoming kind of interesting though, to see that Prince is becoming something of a profit... especially with lyrics like..." Osama gonna drop the bomb... in 2001!" and the afforementioned lyrics. Kinda freaky! I hope his next song has lyrics tomthe effect.." Kenny gonna hit the lottery big... in 2003!"

PEACENLUV to the lost crew of the Columbia, NASA, and you...
