Marital Mondays: Sorry, Prince. Maybe I’m Not Really a Fan

February 28, 2011 · Posted in hannibal, marital mondays, marriage 



Hannibal has ruined a Prince song for me. Seriously. Apparently, the song “Live and Come Back,” which I thought was a song about reincarnation is actually saying “Little Red Corvette” and it’s about some fast hoochie mama.

Despite the evidence on Google, I still believe that the Prince was explaining the Buddhist afterlife.

Also, I thought Prince sang, “Oh, Sheila.”  It’s actually Ready for the World.  I’d blame this on my age, but I have no fewer than 10 friends my age, who probably knew this stuff already.  To be fair, Prince did write the song (I think), so I’m not that out of it.  I’m pretty sure this is because my mom only listened to talk radio and my dad only listened to jazz on 88.1.  Right.  That’s it.

    OMG! Allthis timeyou thought he said “live and come back”? Wow! That is a cool name, but I do wonder what other songs you have alternate names for. So far, I think Ive been pretty good at getting the names and choruses (sp) of songs correct. The last song verse I misinterpreted was on Mary J's “Real Love”. You know the part where she hits the high note? Well I thought she said “CG tell me noooow!” I found out a few years ago she said “Seems he can't be founnnd!”. Oh well. We live and learn.
