While trying to listen to Emancipation I was reading the booklet & credits. Then there is this one picture, that takes 2 full pages, of Prince is a long coat. He's wearing a Hindu-dot (or however that's called) on his forehead.

Okay, here it comes: behind Prince there are 4 words/sentences written. Because Prince is standing there it is hard (if not impossible) to see what is written...does anyone know?

Like Candle Slowly Burning.

It's a lyric from 'Slave'.

Compare the lyrics to 'Da, da, da' from the booklet to the lyrics in the "Emancipation: Words and Pictures" book.
Those in the book are older then the lyrics in the booklet. The older lyrics also are in the Japanese booklet.

The lyrics in the european/US-booklet are the same as used on the album.

What do you mean? The CD booklet that came with the CD has no lyrics - just random 'quotes' from the songs...

Hmmm...a lot of questions about 'Emancipation' lately, man I just listen to the songs!!! One of my fav's...

Inside your mind is a HOUSE full of thoughts...
Every moment that you ring pass not comes the pondering of...releasing "IT"...to make room for an "Empty Room"...
Once the thoughts of EGO are burnt...and U realise the "i"...there is "HIDDEN" treasure "IN THE MELLOW OF THE MIND" like a divine flame...a Divine Spark...
that reaches...and finally "blooms"...

PS... No plagerism, just integrating...

Thank u

The "Emancipation: Words and Pictures" book, I know - I got a grand total of seven of them mailed to me - but the actual CD booklet had no lyrics so what was Chocolate Invasion talking about? Was there a third booklet available? How?

Chocolate Invasion is just saying there is a picture of Prince on a double-page spread with the words 'like,candle,slowly,burning' written behind him.
Its in the booklet that comes with the cd's.
