I know Prince wrote a lot of songs for Sheila to record, but are any of his songs about her? Obviously, there are many for Susannah, so I'm just curious if there were any songs about his relationship with Sheila, or even about their friendship.

I don't have any of my Uptown books with me right now, but I'm sure not all of her material was writen by Prince. I think they co-wrote some of her tracks to.

Well, I think the question is, are any of Prince's songs ABOUT Sheila?

I'm not sure, myself, unless there's a really obvious one that's slipping my mind at the moment...

not any that I'm aware of. Of course he was supposedly seeing her between the Susannah and "love God" eras, so I guess she took a backseat in the writing department for Prince.
I've heard she has a few about him, I'm not an avid Sheila fan so can't name any of them, though.

She has "Who's Taking Care of You?" on her Heaven cd.

Oh Sheila.

That song is such a huge disappointment to me--why is she not singing it? It would have made the song more interesting and personal instead of hollow and emotion-less.

I totally agree. That was my feeling on the whole album. Sheila did a great version of the song on at the Celebration however, she could barely sing it because she was so emotional.

"Sister Fate" talks a little about Sheila & Prince's relationship, and the rumours surrounding the two. I remember in the video when she sang "you and I" an image of Prince appeared.
