On Episode 89 of the Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics Podcast, the co-authors of The Rise of Prince: 1978-1988, Alex Hahn & Laura Tiebert, join me to talk about “Sign o’ the Times.” This lead single from the double album of the same name used a ripped from the headlines approach to calling out troubling aspects of our society while also ensuring it stayed quirky enough to be a Prince track. Its sparse production is designed to highlight the song’s lyrics, so let’s dig in!
Join Alex and Laura’s Facebook group, Make the House Shake, to stay on top of what projects they’re working on, and don’t forget to visit Laura’s website to read her blog and sign up for her class in living like Prince!
Check out the Press Rewind discord at discord.gg/f8Ueuym and join us in discussing all things Prince.
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!
