“7” from the album Love Symbol Album, released in 1992

Not one of Prince’s bigger hits, “7” is a psychedelic pop song that samples Lowell Fulsom’s “Tramp,” mixes that with Prince’s vocals overlayed with Prince’s vocals, and gives strong sitar and bell vibes. What is it about? Love? The apocalypse? The seven names of God from the Old Testament? Reincarnation? All of the above? More?

Yes?

No?

Doesn’t matter.

Prince doesn’t need to be explained. Prince only needs to be heard.
