Prince mentioned in other people's songs.

I thought of this for a topic when I heard the Bloodhound Gang's song "Discovery Channel".

Not only did they mention him but they did so in a very funny way.

I would love to post the video but I am horrible at that.

Anyway, let's see how many songs have either Prince mentioned, Vanity, or a reference to one of his songs.

By the way the lyrics that got me started were;

Sweat baby, Sweat Baby

Sex is a Texas drought

Me and you do the kind of stuff

That only Prince would sing about

So put your hands down my pants

and I bet you'll feel nuts

Yes I'm Siskel, Yes I'm Ebert

And you're getting two thumbs up!

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Woah-oh-oh-oh
It's always a good time
Woah-oh-oh-oh
It's always a good time

Woke up on the right side of the bed
What's up with this Prince song inside my head?
Hands up if you're down to get down tonight
Cuz it's always a good time.

Wasn't there a crazy song called "Better Than Prince" or something, from a couple of years back?

"I can eat more than Prince

I can dance harder than Prince

..."
