May I interrupt all of this bickering? How did this thread go from a funny reply to a typo to the blistering lashings about a country's level of racism? Put your brakes on people and gather yourselves. Every country that begins with and ends with an alphabet has racism, bigotry, sexism and all brutal, hateful legacies that will supply history with infinate paragraphs. Take your debates to another forum or classroom, and keep this forum focused on its subject. You have all done such in depth research on your points that it is a wonder you haven't slugged your head with a bullet. Please!!


i agree. i was just about to say the same thing. stay on topic.

1. On the evidence of his interview in Australia during Prince's last visit, I really don't think he has anything againt Australians, he said, "I like it here".
2. I don't have anything against Australians.

I don't like being told to F*** O** here. I care about the topic, can't you tell?

Australia is THE MOST RACIST country in the world.


Yeah, you'd be much better off in Saudi Arabia.

Hey this isn't fair. confused

This wasn't supposed to be an Anti-Aussie thread! lol Why am I laughing? I'm Australian.

To be honest, I knew before posting it that I'd probably misheard the lyric.

rolleyes

That's what I thought too...so you're a sh!t disturber! LOL

Actually, I went to Italy and met my boyfriend there. In Florence, we met a really cool Aussie dude of about 50 yrs old (so he said...I thought he was older). Very nice man. Fun..

Dated a Belgian who LOVED Australia...loved Prince too.

For Parade, Prince toured EVERYWHERE but the USA. I'm pretty sure folx have some of those Sydney boots. And had there been this board and others in 1986 and 87, you would have heard the same complaint from us Americans. In fact, I have a shirt someone gave me whose sister went to London and got the shirt from a company she worked for (she wasn't even a fan!). I got it in 86 and STILL have it.

What threw me with that lyric is that I wondered if he was speaking about Aussies from the Aboriginal point of view. But definitely he was saying RC ... he wouldn't speak like that about fans.

Mr. Aussieman?? No... Mr. RC Man... whatever that means. I mean c'mon! How could he possible hate Aussies??? You people gave the world The Crocodile Hunter, Crododile Dundee, tons of pictures of cute animals with little pockets for bellies, Ned Kelly, Kylie Minogue, Nick Cave! Impossible!!! disbelief


er, ok. then what's an RC man?

confuse


Definitely Record Company man. Cuz the music biz is incredibly insulting and stupid sometimes. And if he said AR (Artist & Repertoire) Man, he'd get sued or somebody's feelings would get hurt. Plus at that time he could lie and say he meant RC Cola!

But your examples don't help the situation, actually! smile Except for Nick Cave...and what about Split Enz?

Split Enz were from New Zealand.

Australia has given some good stuff to the world...but it also a nation that knows it's a secret best kept for itself. "Godzone" (God's Own Country).

Any further discussion would be off-topic.
