bex772016 claims another icon, dead too early. Prince was subversive and a pervert in the best possible meaning of those words. I felt naughty listening to him, which I needed to do as I was altogether too good a girl back then.
It's odd how a musician and movie star become so firmly entrenched in a moment in my life. There was a good boy who needed to break out... get away from his abusive father... and his idea of "THE MOST SCANDALOUS THING" was to go see "Purple Rain" so I took him to the movies and bought him a Members Only jacket. It was so 80s. And Prince is in the middle of the memory.
RIP dear man. Thank you for leaving behind so many songs to keep us bopping along.
