Steen's Tumblr

I was talking to a good friend this morning & we got on the subject of social media and how it seems like at any given time of the day or night, you can log onto Facebook or Twitter and find folks just living in their feelings. It’s so pitiful! So then I started singing “The Pitiful Ones” to the tune of Prince’s “The Beautiful Ones.” We kiki’ed. When I got to work this morning, I threw this together. I hope you enjoy it! I’m also including a link to the original song so that you can listen along whilst reading. (The fact that I was even able to find this online is a miracle. You know Prince does NOT play when it comes to his stuff being online. Shit, he snatched some bootlegs I had from his tour last year right out of my iTunes like nothing.)
