Prince Reference on Apple.com - Unintentional? (image) I was actually looking to see if Apple still sold iPods (sales are down dramatically in the last 3 years). You can't even find a regular link on the main page to the iPod area. You have to dig through the Music page, or go to Apple.com/ipod directly. . But I digress. As I was scrolling through the page, I saw the blurb about engraving. Then I saw this: . A title from the Chaos and Disorder album. They had all sorts of corny cliches on the backs of different products, as a sample. But this one obviously stuck out. I don't know how long that image has been there with that specific phrase.
Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking. | |

That phrase is extemely common and it was around before Prince wrote the song. It's a variation of the famous, "I Think Therefore I Am" and people have been substituting their own words for "think" for ages. It has zero to do with Prince. I am 100% confident that I used the word rock in place of think back in the late 80s. | |

If they wanted to reference Prince, they would choose a more obvious Prince phrase so the casuals could appreciate it. I guess like most of us, you're seeing Prince everywhere at the moment, which is understandable. Nobody I know gun' bite | |

I understand it's a common phrase. I was a teenager in the 80s, so I'm quite aware of variations on it. I also understand it has zero to do with Prince, ergo my "unintentional" not in the title of this thread. Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking. | |
