Cover art for The Ladder lyrics by Prince

the lyrics of that one are wow! I can't stop listening to it lately, wintertime brings a morose mindset and this sure is giving me a most welcome warmful feeling and reflection on 'what really matters'. yet here the message is about looking at yourself, finding a better self, in a godly way be good, or just keeping faith, I don't believe in a god. but anyway.. it brings tears to my eyes my god; this Prince IS so talented, in so many ways. this comes to prove it one more time. just one thing, there's a word, in english which is not my native tongue, I think it's "corky" (...) corny? I"m not sure lol I'm looking 4 the adjective, sorry, anywoo lol that's a word alike that could be used to discribe the subject on "the Ladder", it could be taken in a lightly way, or worse just pretend that this is lyrically only a greeting-card chorus or something! ha ha.. but still! Incredibly powerfull song. I don't care Wot you say! lol
