Funny Work Story

I was at work a few days ago, and my phone went off . . . well, Black Sweat is my ringtone, and it was loud!

The girl next to me yelled out "I have that album! I love it! Twelve-Thirteen!"

Back when I was younger, I knew this one girl that hated Prince, threw out the usual comments like "Prince is Gay".

She was also a Tom Jones fan. She thought Kiss rocked! She didn't actually realize there was a connection. rolleyes lol

I'm not looking for geniuses, but come on people, don't say you are a music fan at all unless you have a minimal comprehension of it. Very minimal.

nod Oh yeah, for sure! At least that song was a bigger hit for Sinead than Prince, so I can forgive people for that one. I don't expect people to know anything about Manic Monday either. smile

haha coincidentally maybe but friday night i was talking to my uncles new wife who tries every way to find something in commen with me (note i don't really care for her) well i told her I was a HUGE prince fan and then our conversation went..
(Her name is Nikki)
Nikki - "You listen to Prince? Oh! Me too I am the BIGGEST Prince fan! I used to listen to him as a kid. I have every single one of his cd's! Have you ever heard Darling Nikki? I love that song it's so good. I have the album it's on too, Little Red Corvette!"
Me - "hmm, you're mistaken. Little Red Corvette is a song on 1999. Darling Nikki is a song on the Soundtrack Purple Rain also featured on Prince's Movie."
Nikki - "Prince has a movie?"
Me - "YOU'VE NEVER SEEN PURPLE RAIN?"
Nikki - "No, have you?"
Me - "I own it. And I own Under the Cherry Moon and am getting Graffitti Bridge."
Nikki - "Oh, well sometime you'll have to bring it over and we can watch it."




im sure you can all see a truly HUGE prince fan here! eek rolleyes

What drew me to Prince was the "intangibles". His good looks are just an added bonus. His music is poetry. He is a true musician/artist so dedicated that I can't help admiring him. Gold is my soul tattoo. If given the chance, I'd talk 2 Prince about it
