It's one of the very few Prince songs that I don't care for at all.

I've never quite worked out why, because I do like the rest of the Chaos and Disorder CD.

Ahh...then maybe you can help me out with a couple of things. I'm a horror fanatic. I remember reading that there were 3 films by the director of 'Ringu' and I've been having a devil of a time finding them. Would you happen to know of these?

And secondly...what is this around his neck?

I agree!!! I didn't care too much for this song the first time I heard it, but the more I listened to the lyrics,
I found it all very clever. 'Chaos And Disorder' has it's share of gems nod

I was just wondering since that piece of shit album's been out for almost 8 years. Valid response. Lame, but valid.

No, it's Sadako from Ringu, the original japanese version of The Ring.



I saw Ringu, and Ringu 2 recently I was impressed as I saw The Ring (the US version when it came out in the cinema) - I saw part of Ringu on TV before this - but the originals were mucho better (well that's to be expected).

What about Ringu 0 - The prequel, is that worth getting?

I much preferred the sequel, Ringu 2, to the first one.

It bothers me not to like a Prince tune but I guess thats healthy lol

big grin I did like when he screamed at the end though! thumbs up!



Isn't it a shame.

Prince couldn't make something with this much energy now even if he tried.

I Like it There isn't polished, but it's a favorite of mine. The lyrics, yes,
and that fact that it's an archtypical Prince melody, if underproduced.
Fear is the mind-killer.

I don't understand either. To me it's one of Prince's wickedest tracks.

What can I say Shakespeare hasn't said before?
