yeah if i put the title of that Prince song on here the mods would be whipping my butt ]
I thought that WAS the whole point of the "deeper meaning", because it is as he says in the lyric; I.e. "I bet that if you threw that... into the air it would turn to sunshine." Oooh-ah!
Isn't that the real essence of Prince's "In Funk We Trust" - and the legacy of the now enigmatic Tony Barbarella.
So much for the New Power Generation (NPG). Most missed it!
Hey BerrieK and Jen...
I see your point. Perhaps you should have instead equated this with another deep and meaningful song, being Jamiroquai's Cosmic Girl.. This has your Prince (symbol) related lyrics in the first verse;
"I've must have died and gone to heaven
Cos it was a quarter past eleven
On a Saturday in 1999
Right across on where I'm standing
On a dance floor she was landing
It was clear that she was from another time
Like some Baby Barbarella with the stars as her umbrella
She asked me if I'd like to magnetise
Do I have to go star-trekking
Cos it's you I should be checking
So she laser beamed me with her cosmic eyes"
"I'm scanning all my radars
Well she said she's from a quasar
Forty thousand million light years away
It's a distant solar system
I tried to phone but they don't list 'em
So I asked her for a number all the same
She said, step in my transporter so I can teleport 'ya
All around my heavenly body
Oh, this could be a close encounter
I should take care not to flounder
Sends me into hyperspace when I see her pretty face (On now)"
Chorus
"She's just a cosmic girl (Oh yeah) from another galaxy
My heart's at zero gravity
She's from a cosmic world (Wow wah-wah-wah)
Putting me in ecstasy (ooh)
Transmitting on my frequency (Wow wah-wah-wah)
She's cosmic."
Why all the cosmic talk?
im on my best behavior this week 
Why all the cosmic talk?
