I will never stop swearing, and I disagree with Prince's stance on it. People that dwell on stuff like "cursing" are in my opinion pointing their energy in the wrong direction.

Everything u've heard about me is true.
I change the rules and do what I wanna do
I'm in love with God, it's the only way,
Cuz u and i know we're gonna die some day.
U think I'm crazy, ur probably right
But I'm gonna have fun every MOTHERFUCKIN night.
If U like 2 fight, ur a doubeldrag fool,
I'm going 2 another world, how 'bout u?

(It's a long time since I put on 1999, so don't kill me if I got some lines wrong!)

"none of y'all know how 2 stop cussin'... y'all got Tourette Syndrome"

just listenin' 2 a cut of Joy In Repetition from the soundcheck at Avery Fisher Hall,NY,April 2002.

this is what P had2 say after the "four letter words r seldom heard..." line.

what do u lot think about this?

i think it is a bit odd 2 try & get others 2 stop cussin when he has made so much art that has 4-letter words in it.
sure it is cool 4 him 2 stop cussin' if he now doesnt agree with it.
heck,sometimes i feel i should hold back on dirty language & try 2 watch my mouth...
but i dont try & force it on others.
same as his religious beliefs.

however it is a catch 22... cuz his art is so exposing & true of who Prince is as a person...
if he didnt write & sing about what was real then he would b fake & also we wouldnt get such great music as we r of late.

Lovesexy/TRC: both very personal & highly narrative of those periods in his life.
thus,musically & lyrically,some of his best work.


also another line he throws in during this sndcheck is:
"can i get u anything?...how about,a cold beer?... NOT!"

same man who,after the 1st jam at Small Club said "how many of y'all r drunk? (crowd cheers) ... ALRIIIGHT!"

personally i think it is cool 2 change & evolve as a person...
otherwise life would b pretty boring.
just aslong as it aint forced on others & doesnt become 'preeching'.


(i'm not saying P is preeching with these comments... tho on the cussin' thing he is. just sayin'... smile )


Take what he said as a remark, no more!!!
"Goodness will guide us when love is inside of us... The Force will be with you, always"

some of his non-swearing puns are cute!


"We don't give a DUCK what u got on???"



That shit makes me fucking cringe. I love the rest of the song. But if you're not gonna curse, don't fucking curse. For fuck's sake, don't use pretend curses. If it's about growing up, don't sound like a six-year-old.

Like, I don't eat meat. So I don't eat meat. I don't eat fake fucking hamburgers and pretend hot dogs ill, I eat fucking vegetables. Dig?

I have 2 agree with U here! Very well put. I dont mind prince not swearing anymore at all, but 4 God's sake?, the substitute swear words R very childish indeed. It sounds "foolish" & "infantile". It would sound "way" better 2 just OMIT the fill-ins/sound-alikes completely! The substitutes R kind of embarassing when playing a particular song 4 someone not familiar with prince & 4 ppl who R!
May the BELLS ring 4 U even when ur not in love. hug kisses
