There's so many levels in Prince's lyrics. During the early years you could tell through his music

he had great spiritual awareness.

Prince earlier music was dark. He would perform all kinds of dirty sexual acts on stage, while

at the same time reciting the Lord's prayer.

Good & Evil is like oil & water. The 2 don't mix.

His image and actions on stage was not of GOD, but were more in lined with

By factoring in GOD into the act, it became BLASPHEMY!

There's good clean wholesome people, that are respected in the community, and appear

to be so call nice loving christians, but in secret are SATANIST!

Prince always had a grasp on his spirituality and it's been true.

The better question is were the fans screaming when Prince asked "Do U believe?" shamming? Since nowadays when he brings up religion everyone starts .

I believe the fans screamed "Yes" because he presented a joyful spirit connecting with God and he invited you along. I'll always be thankful for the term Lovesexy.

He seems content now, but I think folks roll their eyes now because his once free spirit seems to have settled into a dogmatic self-righteousness that is a turn off.

His previous invitation to spiritual joy has turned into "you better get the accurate knowledge as I give it to you, or else".

Boy, you're right on with that!

Prince is always having awakenings. I think it stems from being generally unhappy with phases in his life, so he packages it up and moves on the pastures new.

Dirty Mind was sexual awakening

Controversy was about undertanding the wider world

ATWIAD was about opening up and sharing

NPG was about awakening to his black roots

Emancipation was about being in love and sheddding his past

The Rainbow children was about new spiritual ideas

From there on, its been throwaway concepts.....

why do you equate sex with evil? and why do you say good and evil don't mix? you can't have one without the other. they justify each other's existence. they define each other. and every human struggles between a a positive and a darker side. and people who only present the "good" struggle with it the most.

You do realise there's no chance of that message getting across without the inclusion of at least 23 emoticons, don't you?

I know this is not the forum, but i like your questioning. Could foster good discussion there.

Depending on what line of religious thought...
