The inside jacket of Purple Rain

the illustration of the eyes--I swear those are Stevie Nick's eyes...I am convinced When Doves Cry has something to do with her regardless of what anyone says...rumour has it on one of the Stevie Nicks lists that I am on is that she co-wrote the song with Prince.
Let the rain come down...17 days....

'Bette davis' eyes'???

Oh I see! Kim Carnes was the one who co-wrote 'Little Red Corvette' with Prince!

Why didn't I think of that before???

Bette Davis Eyes was ripped off to make Little red Corvette..(dont anyone argue because its true)..but it was a play on words originally but they kinda look like her eyes more than Ms Nicks..this is all a female triangle like 1999 was a triangle

Monda Monday begat 1999 which begat Manic Monday

Bette Davis Eyes begat Little Red Corvette which begat the eyes on the record sleeve

I wish I could get paid for this boolshit

No arguments there!

And to cap it all, the melody to 'Crazy In The Night' is a carbon copy of '1999'...


Man, you and I make a better duo than Baskin & Robbins!

I always thought the eyes were Wendy's or Lisa's. Nice illustration, wonder who drew that.

You guys could all be right--I sort of see Lisa's eyes there now that I look at it again.

By the way, can someone elaborate on the Little Red Corvette-Kim Carnes thing? I was sort of afraid to ask but...I DON'T GET IT!!! LOL.

Little Red Corvette seems as if it was inspired by the song Bette Davis Eyes..listen to the synths and handclaps...

Even the slow beginning has the build up like Bette Davis Eyes has etc...
