Or the rest of Lovesexy for that matter, it's pretty much about achieving Nirvana through love and connecting with God (blech)

I was at a funeral today, and the pastor was reading from the Book of Luke. When he said, "From the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks" I almost fell out of the pew!

So "Love" quotes from the Book of Luke in the New Testament. Luke 6:45, to be exact.

Nice story. (not the funeral though of course)

And if we really investigated every lyric we'd probably find many more, but some good suggestios so far.

I agree with others esp the following lines- (AnnaStesia) "Love is God, God is Love, Girls & Boys Love God Above.."

(The Cross)- "Don't Die for He is Coming, Don't Die without Knowing... The Cross"

Ooh, I think I like it with the dress half on
I'll zip it far enough 2 see the crack'o'dawn
Don't worry about the bust, I'm gonna lock up every door
Then we can do it in the kitchen on the floor
Or in the bathroom standing on the tub and holding on the rod
U're in the closet underneath the clothes and...oh my God!

From Get Off (Extended version)



You're a real fucker. You act like you own this place--ParanoidAndroid <-- about as witty as this princess gets! lol
I hope everyone pays more attention to Sags posts--sweething mushy

Jesus weeps disbelief

Are you kidding me lol?

For Christian references in Prince music you can pretty much start in 1981 with the Lords Prayer and the Second Coming on Controversy and the New Breed Leader on Sexuality,

To the Apocalyptic theme of 1999, the Afterworld of Let's Go Crazy, his vision of God on God and the Love of Christ on I Would die 4 U,

Then through Paisley Park, The Ladder and Tempatation on ATWIAD to Mountains and Sometimes it snows in April.

Sign of the Times and The Cross, naturally.

Basically the entire LoveSexy album has Christian references, maybe not W2RIL.

On Graffiti Bridge several songs, Can't Stop This Feeling I Got, Elefants & Flowers, Tthieves in the Temple, Still Would Stand All Time and the title song.

On Diamonds and Pearls there is reference to Jesus on Thunder and on the Symbol album, on My name is Prince, 7, And God Created Woman and The Sacrifice of Victor.

Well %^$ it lol, take it from there yourself. On most of his albums there are Christian references to be found!
