'Sister'?? .... I'm almost afraid to ask........ guess I really didn't pay it much attention when it was 1st released. But I listened to it recently, & honestly speaking, I found it rather disturbing. From what I gather, it sounds like incest, am I wrong about that?? I sure hope it isn't an autobiographical song, but it did sound like it... I know Prince doesn't like discussing the past, but l wonder if this is a song that he isn't very proud of today. That would be 1 of my tea time questions for him.. But would I get a response besides, "I don't speak about past things" is really the ? If any1 is thinking I should mind my biz, well he did make the record! I heard the song once, & I really don't ever want to hear it again. Ok, u have the floor, I'm listening.

Without digging into my books, Prince has a half sister names Sharon who lived in New York City whom he stayed with while trying to push his demo tapes he and Chris Moon made. His visit was short and no one gave him a record deal and he went back home to Minneapolis. I don't think that many here really believe he had sex with Sharon, but that he just had an idea and recorded it.

What gave it away, was it the line "incest is everything it's said to be" - because some people think that is a clue to the meaning of the song, weird huh.
