If the Andy thread was pulled, maybe the other appreciation threads need to be pulled too. After all on those, the same people are posting over and over again. | |

From the number of views that topics about them receive,not just here but elsewhere on the net,people are definitely interested in their story. [Edited 4/2/18 10:44am] I am just now really learning about P and Andy so i appreciate the Pictures and interviews they are pretty much all new to me. I didn’t know she was around for the last 5 albums. I learned a lot. History classes have been around a long time But they don’t stop teaching or talking about history. If it is a class you already took, then you don’t have to repeat it. It is your choice. | |

Excellent analogy!! And, like it or not, Andy Allo is now forever etched in Prince Rogers Nelson history. | |

I agree! There were several new articles and photos posted in the thread,some I had never seen before and new information was uncovered as well.It was nice to have a thread where those of us who do like Andy and appreciate the music that she and Prince created together could discuss those topics.She was very present on the last few albums and was there for the writing and recording of many of the songs,even co-writing a few of them with Prince.

Personally I like prince and Andy, as a lot of us do, I wish he would have dug his heels in and made a commitment to her or whoever, it most likely could have made a huge difference in his demise...but I think all the threads that only allow one sided views of each of his relationship are hyper annoying and fake, one side of anything is not true...I would be happy if all the "appreciation" threads went away...but the amount of information pink has on all of his ladies is amazing, and I always read stuff I didn't know that she post, and I appreciate her wisdom... | |

Thank you.I just really loved Prince and his music,like most of us and was watching him closely.I do find his relationships interesting because some inspired such beautiful music and I agree that it would be nice to have an open and honest discussion about his relationships instead of a one sided view.Since most of us were not close to Prince or those who knew him,we can only piece together a picture from what we were shown.He did seem happy with Andy for a while but something happened between them and from what she has said,things were never the same.Prince also said in his last interview with RS that he wasn't sure if he would marry again and that he had left that up to God.It could be that he was content with staying single, though I agree that things would have likely been different had he been in a committed relationship but he may have been for all we know.

I love Prince to death but, let's face it, it seems like the only person he could be in a committed relationship with was himself.

I think he may have been changing in that regard though as he seemed to be regretting failed relationships during the P&M shows.Of course that could have been for theatrical effect but I had not heard him speak so openly before and it came across as genuine to me. | |

I understand it perfectly. Some would like to erase their relationship. | |

That's strange if that's true but with the releases of AOA and Phase 2 and the stream of Oui Can Luv, it appears that he didn't feel that way. | |

What I find so inexplicable is the attempt to wipe out this relationship which arguably defined the final five years of his storied life and which inspired much of the music of his last five albums. WHY would any sane person(s) claiming to love Prince want to do that? | |

Good question.He obviously was very proud of the music they created and that she inspired and wanted to share it with us.There is more than likely more unreleased material that they did together.From what Andy has said they wrote and recorded several songs.She has recordings of instrumentals from Superconductor and Oui Can Luv that she used for MM.Her brother played a clip of a song meant for Superconductor called Mr.Bravestrong that some said had Prince on backing vocals.She said in an interview in 2013 that she was listening to some demos that they did so she seems to have more unheard music of theirs in her possession.

[Edited 4/3/18 19:23pm] Interesting cause wasn’t one of P’s aliaus’s Peter Bravestrong. It is all pertinent to the story of him. This community was set up for all these conversations, right?? He enlististed women so heavily as inspiration the Conversation would be remiss to exclude them from the discussion. | |

I said they had a working and personal relationship.It was confirmed by Andy herself through the UK doc that she was his girlfriend at one time.Kim Berry confirmed it as well.The thread was concentrating on mainly their work relationship and Andy's acting and music career outside of her time with Prince.I was just saying that I didn't see the reason to pull it when it was a respectful thread not based on speculation.I think all of his ladies should have a thread...Susannah too as well as Misty Copeland who did have what seems to have been a purely professional relationship. The thread did go hours without posts aside from some other people commenting or asking a few questions every now and then.One thing you don't seem to realize angel is that though it may show that a user is online it doesn't mean that they actively are and my personal situation is really none of your concern.It was also recently suggested by a mod that a thread should be created to post about all things concerning Andy and her career as well as updates.[Edited 4/3/18 12:29pm] Susannah and Prince’s relationship was both professional and romantic. My understanding is that Misty and Prince had only a professional relationship and friendship, but not a romantic relationship.

Sorry about that.I didn't mean that to read like Susannah didn't have a romantic relationship with him.She was the inspiration for many songs and they were briefly engaged.Prince was "dating" Misty for a little while and he escorted her to a few events,including the Met spring Gala in 2011. Dr.Funk also said in a podcast that he wrote U Will B originally for Misty.She had a boyfriend at the time and it was said that Prince was interested in her romantically but that she didn't feel the same.A lot of us thought they were together back then but it was later revealed that he was with Andy.

No, he wasn't dating Misty, he was inspired by the movie Black Swan and reached out to Misty for some work during the period. I think she is in one of the videos from LotusFlower and of course the dance pieces on the early Welcome 2 tour, she performed on. | |

Right.She's in the video for Crimson & Clover.That's what I meant by "dating" He escorted her to the Elton John Oscar Party,Music Cares and the Met spring Gala.They appeared to be dating at that time and a lot of the fans thought that they were together.I thought they looked nice together but it turned out they were not a couple and he took up with Andy shortly after he attended the Gala with Misty. | |

Interesting that U Will B was written for Misty Copeland.
But yes. She was in a relationship already, as Sal said, and married the man. [Edited 4/7/18 11:12am] | |

Sure about what exactly? Just repeating what Dr.Funk said,that U Will B was based on another unreleased song,Gingerbread Man that he said was inspired by Bria/Misty and the original lyrics were very different from the demo version.They were about him winning a woman away from her man.He also said that Prince was interested in Misty back then and was "trying to holler at her"which I figured from the way he looked at her during their performances.Someone who said they were working at The Forum during his residency,posted here that Prince was not with Misty and that they had seen him leaving The Forum on the last night of his residency holding hands and laughing with another girl,that they later revealed was Andy.

I would LOVE to have an Andy Allo thread that could remain viable as well. Unfortunately, there is one particular orger who appears to try to create revisionist history by exaggerating and contriving aspects of Prince and Andy Allo’s relationship that did not exist. Andy was his girlfriend. From 2011-2014, she was a muse and major collaborator with Prince. Andy has a great personality. She’s very musically talented. She’s intelligent and articulate. She’s gorgeous. She had great chemistry on stage with Prince, although so did many other women. . Some examples of exaggerated/contrived assertions that this orger has stated regarding P and AA: -AA was the center of his world personally and professionally from 2011-2016. -P and AA sent cryptic messages to each other via social media. -P made social media posts on Twitter/Instagram indicating that he was in “begging mode” and trying to win back Andy. I’ll believe the above rumors when I hear them from a more reputable source (eg, Andy Allo herself or another member of Prince’s inner circle). As other orgers have mentioned, the orger in question was so fixated on this Prince-Andy Allo fantasy that she contrived to the point that it was creepy. . I would love for there to be an Andy Allo-Prince thread that recognizes AA’s contributions and personal relationship with P while also maintaining discussion that is based in reality, not fantasy.

She accompanied him to a couple of award shows, but that doesn’t mean they dated. . As for U Will B, I’m pretty sure I remember you, pinkcashmere23, and FlyOnTheWall discussing how Andy Allo inspired U Will B on the removed Andy Allo (and Prince) Appreciation thread, but now PC23 has done an about-face. Hmmm. Live 4 Love ~ Love is God, God is love, Girls and boys love God above | |
