Everyone ought to see this video of Prince covering Radiohead's "Creep" before Prince makes it too hard to come by—copies have already been disappeared from Youtube. You know that's what Prince does all day: Surfing the Web for unauthorized copies of his music, while attendants bathe his feet in fresh yogurt.
The most remarkable part is that Prince's voice cuts out before he can say "creep" at any point during the song. The man is constitutionally incapable of making a self-derogatory claim, so he can't actually bring himself to sing the lyrics, "I'm a creep." Loud and clear on the perfect body line, though.

Turned it off...
In The Gay Science (Die fr�hliche Wissenschaft, 1882) Nietzshe refutes god but then makes arguments for �eternal recurrence� - sounds disirreligious.
Strong words for a chaosotician � I guess it is ok if he contradicts himself. It would be unnatural for him not to; it simply justifies his and Derrida�s position concerning the existence of objective truth.
