I've always wondered what the hell he means by "xpert lover...ever had a crystal ball?" Is he talking crystal meth or a big fancy party like a formal or what?

Ball = Round = O = Orgasm

It's all about an orgasm!

Most of the middle of "When the Lights Go Down." Love the song, love his voice, but I really don't know what he's saying on that one.
Check out The Mountains and the Sea, a Prince podcast by yours truly and my wife. More info at https://www.facebook.com/TMATSPodcast/

Exper Lover...my baby...ever had a crystal ball is in reference to a gypsy's, witches' or a wizard's crystal Ball, one that can see into the future. As in, do U know how this is all gonna end. It's gonna be horrible...unless we fuck and make it fun.


somebody back me up here so I don't look crazy.

I was always wishy washy on that one too. Lemme know if U get some deffinates. I always wanted to know what's being hollard in the background of Hide the Bone(one of my fave songs of ALL TIME). I really like supercute...it's like a different version of Hide the Bone w/o sounding the same at all.

I was high when I typed all of this, so cut me some slack.

i think the computer bit was just some of that early 80's shit and the blue was all about relationships not working

I totally agree with you. That's what it's about - no one else seems to get it.
