X'd Xtraloveable #1999SuperDeluxe ?

It was apparently a lame excuse for the Estate and Warners to leave off the version of #Xtraloveable that might have replaced the title track as opener for this set (and it only stimulates demand) for a song that’s little more than nasty dirty roleplay “TALK” between consenting adults—at worst. It's not like Prince hasn't danced around taboo subjects throughout his career.

Besides, #LadyCabDriver is the real “rape song” which was clearly too lucrative to leave off in its three versions uncensored.

Fine song LCD but I don't recall hearing (I wasn't born) that it was so huge. Role-play? I never really saw it that way but ok 🤔. I laugh when the part in question comes on. He was so obviously just being a smartass artiste (crazy synths n all) n took it 2 far. Everyone else isn't an idiot like me (n gaga fanboy) to let it slide. Just enjoy what you got (this fine song in ok quality n a bunch of new n sorta new 1s) n get over it headache 😃.
For all time I am with you, you are with me.

'Lady Cab Driver' is categorically NOT a 'rape' song. Rough sex does not equate to sex that is not consensual. The lyrics do not allow for this interpretation at all.
