My Tree

Anyone got any info about this song. I have to be honest. I CAN NOT get wit it. I always turn immediately. lol The annoying female voice in the background is like ugh! stfu

Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead.
Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow.
Do not walk beside me, either. Just leave me the hell alone rolleyes

Thanks. Anyone got thoughts about "Silver Tongue" and what he meant by " The song you dance , then hide your gun From those who buy the silver from your tongue". What's a silver tongue. Gracias! razz

When that track came out, there was a note on the website saying that the lyrics were written by Nikka Costa.

A 'Silver Tongue' is s smooth talker. Somebody who will say whatever you want to hear to get what they want.

Thanks for clarifying that. What would a gold tongue be being that Gold is more valuable these days? A hellava talker? lol

This was recorded with Robin Power (of Number One fame) i believe and at the end it slows down and segues immediately ito become a new song called 'Positive Place'.

I'm still trying to figure out what the right tempo is for that song. I've heard various versions of that song at different speeds. I think Prince's part is kinda dope, but I pretty much cut off once the girl starts talk/rapping.... confused
