It's a great song, but who the hell is Anna Stesia?

if it's an ex-gurlfriend, I don't wanna hear more!
if there's something more under it, then TELL ME!

By the way, cool txt, I can soo much relate 2 dat line: have u ever wanted 2 play with someone u'd take anyone boy or girl.

Are you the only one w/o a thread limit?

And that for someone with the Lovesexy cover as Avatar.

Anna Stesia isn't a person, just like Martha in Insatiable.

Before I deleted then resurrected this account, I used to have a 10 thread limit. Not sure why, lol.

To me, it's the most important song Prince has ever made. If there could be only one song, it should be this one.

Especially the part:
have u ever wanted 2 play with someone u'd take anyone boy or girl

There was a thread I started about Anna Stesia, do a little digging in the archives.

It definately isn't about an old girlfriend.

Hey Badness, have a look at this link:

http://www.readmag.com/Co...prince.htm

It's quite interesting.

Yup - it seems there are two very solid interpretations of this song, both hold water. I recommend checking the thread MiaBocca mentions, it's quite in-depth.

I don't see why people are jibing HRB so much. She's young and enthusiastic - you gonna hate on her for that???!!! Jeeez...

that song saved my life .i was just about 2 kill myself .and suddenly this songs starts to play just like that .didn't even put the c.d player on .and there it was the first 2 lines .expressing my feelings .and the strange thing was i never played that song before.always skipped that one .

second that. Not really, but feels like it.

AThe term annastasia is rebirth. I think sometimes he conceptualize things as women. Just Annie Christian.

u aren't getting it? it's on the Lovesexy album.

heh.

lovesexy4u said:

It's not I'm laughing at the situation, but it's kinda of a cliched joke that psycho-fans says "lovesexy saved me life".

To me, it's girlfriend or lover, and spirtual battle...it's whatever you make of it! Don't think Prince has ever said...I just know and really feel that it means something special and that's all I need to know...
