I have known about Prince since Purple Rain, but I was only 4 at the time so I was not a fan. I officially call myself a fan as of the day I bought my first album, the symbol album: December 17, 1992.
I abdicated the throne in Ithaca, but now I am...

Since 1978. I was 9 then. Yeah, I was a grown-ass little girl. Despite that, mom had me on lock. No Prince concerts until I was 16. Then when I was old enough to go, couldn't get a ticket to save my life! lol

Being a teacher now, I'm glad mom had since enough to censor what I listened to, even though I'd try to sneak and listen to "Do Me Baby" on the radio -- ear pressed up to to Mom's red velvet speakers!..I usually got caught, and mom would say,

"Sweetheart, those are mature lyrics for older teens and young adults. It's not for you. Turn it off." lol

Since Jan 1990 [36 now], when I went to England to learn English. I got into him through an English friend over there and mostly by dancing with her on his music in clubs. I loved his music before that but I didn't know enough English to understand the lyrics, plus I didn't get much exposure to American pop/rock music groing up in Belgium.
And sadly, I was still playing with my dolls during Purple Rain... sad

I first found out about Prince in 1991 when I was 5 and saw him shaking that sweet yellow ass in the backless trousers on MTV and have been kinda digging him ever since. I've been a "serious" fan since 2006 and have been wearing out the Lovesymbol album! LOL!
I love a Man who:
Wears More Make Up Than Me.
Wears Four Inch Stilleto Boots.
Changes His Name To An Unpronouncable Symbol.
Who Changes His Name Back From An Unpronouncable Symbol.
Oh And Most Importantly, Who Is Sexy Little Drop Of Butterscotch
