2) The Rebels were a 60's garage rock band from Iran.
Before Prince formed The Time, he considered using his backing band as a side-project called The Rebels. The 1979 project was a group effort, with songs being written and sung by the various members. Andre Cymone and Dez Dickerson each contributed material and a few numbers were sung by Gayle Chapman. The project was eventually shelved but two of the songs composed by Prince were re-recorded and released much later: "If I Love U 2 Night" by Mica Paris (and later by Prince's wife-to-be Mayte Garcia) and "U" by Paula Abdul. The original Prince guide vocal for "If I Love U 2 Nite" appeared by mistake on the rare Mica Paris 'Stand For Love' EP, of which only a handful exist.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I will be there, watching you walking down the street
Please don't be scared, I'm saving you a seat
Don't be alarmed, I'm doing no harm
Don't be afraid, I'm doing okay
Don't be worried, about hurting me
If anything, it's gonna be me
Can't keep a closed mind, gotta let the thoughts get out
When I know you're mine, there's nothing I'm scared about
Let's take it easy, try not to get distracted
Unbelievably, we almost never interacted
Don't be alarmed, I'm doing no harm
Don't be afraid, I'm doing okay
Don't be worried, about hurting me
If anything, it's gonna be me
Don't be alarmed, I'm doing no harm
Don't be afraid, I'm doing okay
Don't be worried, about hurting me
If anything, it's gonna be me
It's gonna be me
It's gonna be me
It's gonna be me
It's gonna be me
