This is excellently-created, movingly conveying timely themes
of love and acceptance rather than pride and apathy. I'm wondering
why you sometimes put a question mark in the middle of a question.
I didn't look at the Prince lyrics, which may have question marks . . .

    Thank you, Janice. I'm not sure about the question marks I'll have to look it over again. But thank you.

I enjoyed this. Especially when I finally figured out that it is to Prince's when doves cry. ( One of rock's greatest, or top fifty songs in my view. ) Your rewrite certainly said a lot about pur modern condition. Well done, and good luck in the contest. Blessings

This is a great riff on When Doves Cry. Prince was a great performer. They say he left behind over fifty MTV quality, unreleased videos in a safe. The family is fighting over ownership.

A very well-written song parody to keep hope alive, no matter what the circumstances. We can change our situation from very bad to a positive situation.
