1 reason this write-up is weak:

"...his 1991 Hearts and Diamonds single..."

Thunder drowns out what the lightning sees, so I'm not sure they will ever see the truth!

Points 4 and 5 are basically the same thing: songs he wrote that were released and made popular by other artist. Granted, point 4 refers to songs where Prince released his own version first... whereas, point 5 is where there was no commericially available Prince version (at least not at the time). But that's splitting hairs.

I feel strongly about it and love finding out more about it. If you could, as you learn more, would you mind adding more information to your blog quordle
