Real Products in Prince's Lyrics
Because of the Paco Rabanne post I started thinking about other commercial products Prince has mentioned in his songs over the years. So far I have:
Corvette (Little Red Corvette) Captain Crunch (Joint 2 Joint) Mercedes (The Glamorous Life) Trojan (Little Red Corvette) Accujac (Sexuality)
There must be a lot more -- anybody else?

Thanks for the link to the "Edibles" post
So now we have:

Shake (Silicon) Lagerfeld blazer (Acknowledge Me) Paco Rabanne (Movie Star) Corvette (Little Red Corvette) Captain Crunch (Joint 2 Joint) Mercedes (The Glamorous Life) Trojan (Little Red Corvette) Accujac (Sexuality)
What are the songs that mention "Evian" "Vaseline" and "Fritos"?

Evian is from "Blue Light"
Vaseline is in "Love or Money" | |

He mentions Jimmy Choo shoes or something like that in some song off the MPLS CD.
I think he mentions Chanel in some other song. A Chanel chain, perhaps?
I think he mentions brand names in some of the songs on "New Power Soul".
It appears that I don't much care for a lot of the songs in which he mentions brand names, because I can't remember the song titles.
Oh, he mentions his plaid Rolls Royce in "High Fashion".
He says "Fender Jazz" which is a bass. I think that's in Glam Slam or something off Lovesexy or the Black Album. | |

I believe it's spelled "Paco Rabbit." We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |
