I find it highly unlikely that Prince wrote Little Red Corvette about Stevie...no way.
I didn't even think they had met prior to her calling him to play on SB. The story about her writing Stand Back after hearing LTC however is true, or at least that's how she's told it. I've heard her tell that story many times of driving up PCH with Kim and hearing it and writing SB . What's funny is that when she tells the story (i.e. Storytellers) she says how he walked out of her life and never came back in yet we've all heard the story of how she was sick and he brought cough medicine to her room (I think that's the story but correct me if I'm wrong) and there's also the story of her being on drugs and falling down stairs and him being there and being really mad or something?
Also, when did they get together and record All Over You?
Enough of my rant. Interesting thing though I've always considered SB and LRC to be 2 of my favorite songs of all time so when I found out one was inspired by the other it blew my mind!! How cool is that?
