Tracer Hand - That Prince song plays a lot on the radio, and it's bad
to hear if something sad just happened to you. Not that that ever
happened to me, or anything. That's funny about Prince; cos he has
that song 'Head' which is about, oh, so you're just about to get
married? Don't worry, just do this with me; and Sister, speaks for
itself; but then he also has some kind of moralising, anti-modern-
decadance thing; AND, a sort of realist, cinema-verite 'subtleties
of a deep relationship' thing, reflected in Purple Rain and 'When You
Were Mine' (When you were mine/you were all I ever wanted to do . . .)
sleazy moralising realist . . .
