I've known Prince for many years - I worked on the "Raspberry Beret" video - and Kirstie [Alley] and I used to fight about him. He once sent a card [saying] he had penned a song about me, called "Palomino Pleasure Ride. " I remember bringing this card to work one time and showing Kirstie and saying: "See?
