I don't think this means you're a Prince fan, I think this means your parents or older brother did a bad job at learnin' ya!

*... you didn't think Crystal Ball was really that bad.....ok, i can't lie to myself.. it was bad lets face it..

*...you & 2 of your friends thought you could be the next "6" act for Prince.
(ok i'm over it!)

*... you name your pets after Prince or his associates. ( I have 2 dogs Prince, and Chaka, and 2 ferrets named Diamond & Pearl.)

*...your family worrys about you cause all you watch & listen to is Prince
stuff.

*...the utter name of Carmen Electra makes you shriek.

*... Choas & Disorder doesn't sound that bad.

*...you have the items in your Prince collection separated from the
"general stuff" in your music collection.

*... you know why Vanity 6 is called Vanity 6 and not Vanity 3

*... you cried for a week when you heard Prince married Mani, and you still (pathetically) believe that maybe if you could get your hands on him, Prince would fall in love with you.... pray

I SOOOOO have my entire Prince collection (and anyone associated with him over the years) in a locked cabinet. I know people think I'm crazy, but it's good to see that so many other people do the same things that I do. There's a bit of me in every one of these posts. Thanks

* When you ask the hotel clerk to please assign you room 319.

* When, in the days before cds became wildly popular, you'd pause love-making to turn the Prince tape over.

* You screen dates based on their level of Prince knowledge.

* You've tried *THAT KISS* in Purple Rain and it worked out pretty good. (a bit sloppy but good)

* You're a nymphomaniac.
...one who can writhe on the floor with the best of them.

* You have well-thought out philosophies on Uptown, the Dawn, the
Tourists That Didn't Land, doves, the number 7, Starfish and Coffee, and the New
Breed.

I didn't get to read all the threads, but you are fan if you own a couple albums on Fricken 8 track tapes and no player.

U R are a fan if u own the original release DVD, the 20th anniversary dvd, a VHS copy and even an old BETA max format (no player) of Purple Rain.

...your fiance's seven year old daughter knows every word to "Illusion, Coma, Pimp & Circumstance"

...you have friends who refer to your ex as "Mayte" and your current lady as "Mani"

...you know the names of Prince's pet doves.

...you know the names of Mayte's dogs.

...you know who the hell people like Morris Hayes and Kirky J are.

...friends use you to settle bets about Prince.

...you saw enough shows that you had enough copies of Musicology to give to friends as gifts.

...in spite of having all those copies, you still bought a friggin' copy when it came out in stores (just cause you wanted the video, fancy packaging, credits, etc.)

...you know the names of various photographers who've worked with Prince.

...you know the names of more cancelled projects than just the "black" album.

...you find yourself educating people at parties as to who wrote "Manic Monday".

...you have to dig out a copy of UTCM, just to prove to some smartass at that party (who was trying to show you up) that the guy named "Christopher Tracy" that's credited with writing the song is actually Prince.

...you actually had a symbol necklace made BEFORE he changed his name.

...you actually own those moonwrap thingies.

...you have friends who are just as big of nuts about Prince as you

...you and said friends drop obscure Prince-related lines to one another at bizzare times (for example, at an Italian restaraunt, you look over at your buddy, put on a NY accent, and say "try the Canole, its fabulous")

Oh My God! This is so embarassing.
I had this theory about how the tourists in Lady Cab Driver were connected to the tourists in Sexuality, but they couldn't be a part of the new breed because unfortunately they didn't land. And you know what "land" means. Oy. :blush:

Which brings to this:
You know you're a Prince fan if you imbue simple lyrics with pseudo-deep interpretations . Otan anyone?

Here is what I used to do. I would arrange all of PRINCE'S albums so that they were in the front rows at MUSIC STORES. I also used to Kiss the covers so there were Lip prints on them actually.

...U know the names of all The Steeles.

...U read the above comment and starting rattling off their names in your head.

...Friends always browse your CD collection and say things like "Who the hell is Elisa Fiorillo?"

...The only people allowed 2 criticize Prince in your presence are other fans that U deem hardcore enough 2 do so.

...U don't own a legit copy of The Family's album on CD, but know someone who does.

...U didn't actually BUY Tommy Lee's Autobiography, but did spend 20 minutes in the book store reading the chapter about Mayte.

Yes, I used to love Train. But then the lead singer was on VH-1 talking about "nothing compares to you" and said sinead's version was great precisely

because prince didn't sing it.

Now, I truly hate Train.

If you use Prince as a reference point for everything..I can link eras of my life as well as track other artists, all in terms of Prince. I'm driving my friends bananas...

If your friends would say about you to other people, "Yeah, she's REALLY into Prince." without their being asked about it.




omg thats me lmaooo.....and am thoroughly offended if someone else doesnt share my love for him ctfuuu

you stalk the owner of the local record store. To make sure he gives you all the promo stuff that comes with the new releases and he actually gets so tired of you that he starts to seek you out first.

You know your a Prince fan if...

...you start going to pawn shops to look for his cd's because you can't stand the thought of one being left behind like an unwanted orphan.

...you can't organize your music into Prince or not Prince stacks because you don't own anything not related to him in some way.

My girlfriend reminded me of a couple more this afternoon...

~When you go up to a girl you've never met before at a bar and ask her out without even introducing yourself just because you over heard her tell her friend that "If more men listened to Prince more men would have more sex!"

~When the same girl goes to see Prince on the Musicology tour with you on the very day of your two year anniversary.

I guess I owe the old boy a thank u card, huh?

That is definitely me, especially when any song references masturbation.
--you hear a profane song and say "Prince did that in '85"[/quote]

plus, you know you're a prince fan if you and your best friend refuse to get serious about a girl until she sees under the cherry moon and has at least a semi-positive reaction.

--you tape over important events like graduations or weddings because Prince was on TV and you forgot to get a new tape

--you get mad when you go to a concert and people certainly less qualified than you actually scored seats in front of you

--you wake up 3 hours before the npgmc pre-sale and keep staring at the "not available" box for 2 hours and 59 minutes

--you actually consider going to another city to see a Prince concert, but won't go to see a boyfriend/girlfriend's favorite act in your own city

--feeling the need to mix sexuality and religion, you go to church with no bra on or free ball it in knit slacks



Umm. . .these would be ME! wave lol lol

Also, Yes, I too have gone 2 record stores and purely out of force of habit make a beeline 2 the Prince section, even though I have everything, then u constantly re-arrange all of Princes releases in order of release and have the store clerks stare at U!!!

Constantly wear Prince t-shirts around town and have people stare at U!!

I too have double of everything like CDs and CDRs, sometimes treble, so I have copies for the living room, the kitchen and the car!!

U were and still are considering putting a lovely purple and white ornate sign outside your house with "Paisley Park" on it!!

U buy WHOLE magazines cos of the slightest mention of Prince in them!!

I love this thread!!! biggrin biggrin biggrin

How about THIS:

You spend all your money on Prince CD's so ending up not being able to afford
toothpaste and ending up with worse teeth than the Queen Mother.
Now THERE is a fan!
