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?

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.
