"Acknowledge Me" = "Don't Say U Love Me" I just realized that a segment of both songs have an identical melody; and both songs were officially released; on "Crystal Ball" and "Martika's Kitchen," respectively. Are there any other occasions where officially released Prince songs share the same "line" or melody, without being an overt reference? | |

Now that you mention it, yeah these both have pretty much the same chorus! It could explain why "Acknowledge Me" was never included on an official album release. A good remark. | |

The obvious one is the closely similar melody of 'Manic Monday' with that in '1999'. . ALT+PLS+RTN: Pure as a pane of ice. It's a gift. | |

The verses of "Da Bang" have the same melody as those of the unreleased "On Your Own". And of course "Sugar Walls" = "Possessed." Stop the Prince Apologists ™ | |
