Kiss

 Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 

questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love to answer the questions, however, and here is today's questions!


Saturday 9: Kiss (1986)

Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.

1) In this week's song, Prince insists there's no particular sign he's more compatible with. Do you take astrology seriously?

I stopped reading horoscopes a long time ago.


2) He tells his prospective lover there's no need to be flirty. Are you a good flirt?


Nope.

3) He refers to the nighttime soap opera Dynasty. Were you a fan?


Definitely.  I actually preferred it to Dallas, but I watched both.

4) "Kiss" was recorded at Sunset Sound Recorders in Hollywood. Built by Walt Disney Studio, it's the studio where the soundtracks to Mary Poppins and 101 Dalmatians were recorded. When you think of Disney movies, what's the first song that comes to mind?





5) Prince said he was "obsessed" with Mozart and read everything he could find about the master. Do you often read biographies? If yes, who was the last one about?

I bought Betty White’s autobiography a few years ago.  It’s on my kindle but I still haven’t read it.

6) He loved snacking while watching a movie in the theater and would mix Goobers (chocolate-covered peanuts) with his popcorn. When you go to the movies, do you visit the concession counter?

Of course.  Sometimes I get popcorn, but sometimes I want pretzel bites. 

7) In 1986, when this song was popular, Peewee's Playhouse premiered. While ostensibly for children, this show had many, many adult viewers. Do you ever watch kids' shows today?

Not really.

8) Also in 1986, Sears shoppers were painting their interior walls with "Country Clover," a pale beige with a hint of pink. What color is the room you're in right now? 

Tan.

9) Random question: Do you enjoy pressing the pedal to the metal and driving fast?

No, I don’t feel in control of the car if I drive very fast.  Although there was the time I glanced at my speedometer and it said “100”.  I accidentally switched from miles to kilometers …

  1. We chose the EXACT SAME Disney song! Which means you are a woman of exceptional taste and wisdom.
    Pretzel bites would hit the spot right now.

  2. I'm not a speed demon but I go a little faster than the speed limit.

  3. Ah yes, 1986. I remember it well. The last spelling test of 3rd grade was for one word: Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. (That was longer ago than 1986, and I don't think I recall it now.)

  6. I don't speed anymore. If I have an accident, and hurt someone... That is something that I didn't have to worry much about on the empty country roads of my youth.
    I remember that crazy word, and that MEME is hilarious!

  7. #3 My mother was hooked on Dallas, Dynasty, and Knots Landing.
    #9 Been there, done that. To change MPH to KPH the button is by my knee and every once in a while my knee hits the button.
