Prince ditches raunchy routines

http://uk.news.yahoo.com/...0bd6d.html

By WENN world entertainment news - 56 minutes ago

Singer Prince has turned his back on his sexy past - because Madonna finished what he started

The Purple Rain hitmaker admits he has matured with age and no longer wants to write songs with lusty lyrics - in case he offends his fans.

He tells USA Today newspaper, "My fans have kids. I have to be sensitive to their consciousness. I've grown, too. I did the Dirty Mind tour and pushed that envelope off the table. What I didn't do, Madonna finished. I don't want to go back. You have to get out of your own way."

And the staunch Jehovah's Witness also insists reading the Bible convinced him to tone down his act, adding: "That's another way faith has changed me."


shit prince the youth of today could teach you a few new naughty words soo be as dirty as you like we wont mind

lol

It's creepy, is what it is.
We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

That's why most of fans liked him,because he wrote,and sang things most artists wouldn't of had the balls to perform. I don't think his songs will lose their sensualness,I believe he will still sings things like Incense And Candles,he just won't be screaming about wanting to fuck the taste of your mouth. lol

Dammit! If Michael Jackson can still grab his balls while singing Billie Jean, then Prince can so SOMETHING! I mean he doesn't have to humping pianos or masturbating his guitar, but just something. Wiggle his hips. Wink, A pout. Something. Anything!

If Prince tried, he could make "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" raunchy!

You're right Emerald. I remember when I was little Prince was strcitly off limits because, hellI don't know, I guess my mom thought he'd "tarnish" me or something with his lyrics. (Still didn't stop me from renting PR at 12 though) and Michael Jackson almost got banned in the house for the crotch grabbing. lol LOL.

But I snuck around to Prince, and it's been fun. But I just like the times when I'd watch something and my jaw would sag or eyes bulge cause he just did something outrageous onstage.

Well as long as he keeps playing "Question of U" I'll be happy. biggrin

Maybe he's just shifting them to a "more useful and appropriate" place -- in the bedroom.

As much as I hate to admit it...Prince's original demographic has grown up. Like he said "with kids". And to his benefit (and our of course) that demographic is one of the largest in history. I so dug his warm-up looking outfits he wore during Musicology and did his James Brown "Slide"(that's what I call it anyway). He looked like a kid and so comfortable and happy...then he wore a suit and was all grown up. He's looking at a TON of money if we hang with him and of course he can hang with us. wink not to mention our kids...smart smart man...

-We are all self motivated. We may think that we do other things for others solely and selflessly but there is no such thing. To be completely honest with ourselves we need to try to see that if we can in all circumstances.

-Prince made the choice to listen to his base player that was a JW. He didn't have to.
Prince made the choice to accept JW as a religion.
Prince was looking for something to meet his needs and facilitate the change he was already set to do.
He sought out the religion and did just that, brought about change in his life. .....Prince gets the credit for the change in his life... the religion didn't do it for or to him. It helped to facilitate it.....

In my opinion.....


-And the staunch Jehovah's Witness also insists reading the Bible convinced him to tone down his act, adding: "That's another way faith has changed me."


That is a common way of looking at things from my friends that are very heavy into any religion. "My faith made me do it" or gets credit for practically everything in their lives.

It tends to scare me a bit in the fact that we all need to try and take the credit along with the responsibility for our lives and actions, and not deflect too much on to something or someone else as to the reason for doing really anything. You ultimately make the choice for change in your life by whatever means.

As for...
"I have to be sensitive to their consciousness."

No, you don't have to do anything Prince you choose to do that. And I'm not sure if he's all that clear on (their/our) consciousness is.....I think he's again talking about his own consciousness.....Prince's new consciousness....

and finally.... Just a quote from "Uncle Bill"

.. "I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody."-- Bill Cosby ...



I'm very tired I hope this makes some sense...
lol
