Prince's First Time: "Schoolyard"

Has anyone ever seen a pic of Carrie?

Was Carrie her real name or Prince just called her that in his song?

"How Prince lost his Virginity at the Schoolyard

by Matthew Wilkening
25 August 2017

As impossible as it is to believe, apparently Prince was once a virgin.


He tells the tale of his first sexual encounter in an unreleased 1990 song entitled "Schoolyard," which at one point was slated for inclusion on his next album, Diamonds and Pearls. Around that time Prince told Rolling Stone the lyrics were about "the first time I got any... I think that's something everybody can relate to."

This song is absolutely god awful and I will stand by that eternally. That chorus is the most grating thing he ever penned.

Agreed.

If I recall correctly, Prince also talked about this incident in his unfinished memoir.

Carrie has never come forward.

I tried to like the song but I just can't get into it.

The lyrics are interesting though.

She's probably married with grown kids and doesn't want to revisit the past. First times are awkward.
