Your stupidity:

The phrase is actually 'all that glisters is not gold' and is taken from Shakespeare's 'Merchant of Venice'

In any case, you should not necessarily assume that Prince is (mis)quoting Shakespeare in 'Gold'. An equally likely explanation is that he is simply using a phrase that has passed into common parlance. Either way, the song works.

In 1981, the Cold War was at one of its most tense and aggravated levels. Ronnie was increasing the defense budget, drafting the proposals for Star Wars, and calling the USSR 'The Evil Empire.' Ronnie did talk to Russia, several times, most famously in Iceland for talks which ended when he left in mid-conversation when he didn't like the USSR's position.

Actually there WAS a draft requirement in 1982, thanks 2 Ronnie Reagan. If U didn't register 4 the draft at 18 years old, you wouldn't be able 2 get financial aid for college, or a passport.

I was 16, and at 18 I refused 2 register.

Peace.

Cartridges don't fit into video games, its the other way around. And you're playing the game not the cartridge.
