Irresistible Bitch: Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics Podcast



On Episode 49 of the Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics Podcast, the musician Snax (snaxonline.org), and I talk about the dark and foreboding 1999 era B-side, “Irresistible Bitch.” Prince is being used, abused and treated like dirt….but he still comes back for more. A tale of masochistic obsession and terminology ownership happens to also be one of the coolest songs in Prince’s discography.

The goal of each episode of Press Rewind is to:

  • Take a track by track look at the lyrical content of Prince’s discography
  • Discuss my own interpretation of each song’s lyrics along with any guest I may have
  • If submitted, discuss listener’s interpretations of each song’s lyrics

Thank you for joining me on this journey through Prince’s catalog!


Horny Toad: Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics Podcast



On Episode 48 of the Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics Podcast, fellow blogger Zachary Hoskins (PrinceSongs.org) joins me to chat about the ridiculous, ballsy, yet still somehow enjoyable 1999 era B-side, “Horny Toad.” Prince delivers a winking nod to his nasty persona throughout the song’s lyrics and we cover it line by deviant line.

The goal of each episode of Press Rewind is to:

  • Take a track by track look at the lyrical content of Prince’s discography
  • Discuss my own interpretation of each song’s lyrics along with any guest I may have
  • If submitted, discuss listener’s interpretations of each song’s lyrics

How Come U Don’t Call Me Anymore: Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics Podcast



On Episode 47 of the Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics Podcast, Prince gets emotionally raw with us on his piano and a microphone break-up ballad, “How Come U Don’t Call Me Anymore.” The “1999” B-side gave us a glimpse of Prince we hadn’t seen much of before. It’s just one lousy dime…pick up the phone and call me sometime.
