Pink Cashmere...DID I forget? DID WE ALL?

I usually don't do this..BUT It was weird..


I had a random dream the other day and for some reason 'Pink Cashmere' was sung by my friend. Haha...It was weird, because a song never usually shows up in my dreams like that. Haha..Who cares....

But I guess it has been maybe a year since I heard the track.

SO I played it again, and DAMN. What a song of genius and brilliance.

Sure he is just singing about making an expensive coat for his girl at the time. LOL. BUT The perfect strings by Claire, acoustic guitar making a serene sound...His vocals in perfection...then that bomb guitar solo that fits just perfectly. Pardon me Kcool...LOL

But it's a damn Masterpiece! Haha

It was one of the first songs that brought me into the world of Prince and his creative gifts and talents. I am very amazed at how lightly spoken the song is talked about. It's song we realize is great but somehow forget about...

How many of you dig Pink Cashmere? And what other songs appear to you in random distances, that makes you realize its genius? It can be as recent as 'RNR' Hahaha...Or as long ago as 'Moonbeam levels' I am not comparing those two songs seriously..I just wanted to get a laugh in. Haha

It's Button Therapy, Baby!

Well, I do. I think it's a fantastic song, I always have. I remember running into town during my lunch break from work to buy The Hits/The B Sides the day it was released (and being late back) and this being one of the first tracks I skipped to when I got home.

It just does it for me. The strings, the beats, Prince's vocal. Magical in every way.

I've always wished I could be the kind of girl who would get a song like that written about her.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

I have loved that song from the moment I first heard it. I never skip past it when it comes up randomly on my iPod. It is a perfect song to me.

Such great guitar work in that ending solo, powerful yet understated. Definitely one of the songs that makes me dig him as a guitar player.

No, he bought a coat made of pink cashmere for Anna Garcia as a gift (he had it custom-made).

When I was younger I thought the song was about some sort of an odd variety of tea ("I'm making you a cup of pink cashmere"). razz

Which as a result gave us another brilliant song in the shape of Vicki Waiting, which was of course originally titled Anna Waiting.

Isn't it romantic? A 34 year old lusting after a 17 year old? And it's all in song. Swoon....lol
