You reserve excitement when some report states Prince has recorded a new album, cause you know there's a chance it won't see the light of day.

You always complained how much NPGMC sucked, but kept renewing your membership anyway.

You're constantly on the lookout for a user who might secretly be Prince.

whenever you get upset your friends say "ohmygod, someone please start talking about prince"

whenever you're really angry, you just pop in purple rain and watch it from beginning to end like you've never seen it before.

it really pisses you off when someone covers a prince song, no matter how good it might be, because they will never be as good as the man himself (that being said, some guy playing guitar at the 59th street station did this amazing cover of purple rain on an acoustic guitar. i gave him my last dollar)

Eye no...there is a heaven, eye no there is a hell...sorry, i' just couldn't help myself..well, eye no i'm a Prince fan Bcause

-i cut the brakes of my father's car Bcause he said that the final part of "Do me baby" was obscene (ok, i didn't , but i seriously thought it)

-i wrote a novel about my fantastic love story, back in the 80s, with P (i wrote about 3 pages...then i realized it was kinda creepy)

-i only wear clothes which are like the ones he wore in Purple Rain

-i sang "Head" 2 a priest (true!)

So many of these things R true;

mine also include:

Still have the magazine from the 80's with Prince in them---Tiger Beat, etcc
and every article since in scrapbooks in a fire safe box---just in case.

I was very depressed after my divorce and my sisters threw me a "Prince Party" and carved the cheese in the shape of his symbol---i of course won the trivia game.

The 18x20 frame that held my wedding picture was replaced with a picture of Prince I took at a concert and is on display with my collection.

My teenage daughter thinks I insane.

... when after reading this forum for about 5 years you *finally* subscribe to the org, just to be able to add your own stuff to this thread

... when you have collected more than 900 cassette tapes since 1986 - and you never never never play them anymore coz they have the worst sound quality you could ever imagine, but HEY! you got the entire Purple Rain tour complete smile)

... when your mom *still* tells you she heard something about Prince on the radio

... when you have a framed guitar pick with a "Love God" inscription, just because someone you once knew from Security stole it for you from a bucket full of picks, hours before a show (and you keep kelling everybody you caught it at a show)

... when all your ex-girlfriends are Prince fans too (and not because of you)

... when you still buy purple stuff, candles, shirts etc

... when you know what "purple raincoat" means

... when you realise you once ran a Prince fanzine

... when you cut a 1:1 Cloud guitar from a piece of hardboard in 1985, and you still have it (and still even "air guitar" play it)

... when you wear a Prince T-shirt when you're going to a George Clinton / Bootsy Collins / James Brown / Maceo Parker / GCS gig


... when you went to 'Sagrada Famiglia' in Barcelona, Spain, to take pics of the tiles 'he' stood on, and the fence 'he' stood in front of, and even went to a local cd store to compare them to the 'Come' cd cover... and then go back afterwards to take pics of the right tiles

... when in 1984 you created a Prince song/album database on your Commodore64 computer while you should have been doing your homework

... when you watch MTV Cribs and jump up from your seat when you see Apollonia lives nextdoor to someone famous (who was it again? Carmen?)

... when you went to London in 1995 to visit this NPG store, only to see the balcony 'they' posed on, to buy some pencils, to see the time capsule and to eat chocolate cake in the cafetaria, just because 'he' was there too.
Even worse: you went there again this year and you searched frantically, but couldn't find the spot anymore.

... when you bought a T-shirt with any Batman logo in 1990, 'just because'

... when you compare the mould on your left cheek to Prince's

... when you flew from Amsterdam to Atlanta on a Saturday morning, and back Sunday afternoon, with another Prince concert added to your memory

... when any ruffled shirt brings you back to 1884

... when you know who Tommy Lee is, only because you know who Mayte is (okay, and Pamela Anderson)

... when you still go to a Prince show to record it and still hope you're the only one who did so, to have a rare recording (and trade it if for lots of goodies)

... when you have never seen this ketchup commercial and are still dying to see it

... when you went to a Miko Weaver concert in Holland in Godknowswhen.., "just because"

... when you know who Larry Graham and Tony M. are

... when you still wonder what a 7 inch has got to do with a computer

... when you say you're not that big a fan anymore, but you still wait HOURS at a venue and pay WAY too much money to get a ticket smile

... when you are looking for online radio stations, and still end up with stations that only play Prince and Prince related, and 24/7 of course

... when you have to create a password somewhere, and "for" is still "4", and "you" is still "u"

You know you are a prince fan when....

1. You listen to The Beautiful ones and when it gets to "One thing, one things for certain babe, I know what I want" you pull the front of your top down and wiggle your head in a silly manner, even though no one else is around.

2. You motion a make believe person towards you with your index finger when listening to "Come back Nikki, come back!"

3. You always try to re-cough the cough in Raspberry Beret.

*... You cheer when Aura dies because she had sex with Prince and you didn't. (doesn't matter that she is a fictional character.)

*...If he showed up on you doorstep and asked you to be a JW, you would go "YES SIR! Will you marry me now!"

*... You walked around for a while in a black lace bustier.

*... You feel like hes cheating on you, even though he doesn't know you..(It's really sad I know.)

*...You honestly believe that if he met you, he would fall head over heels...

You know you're a Prince fan when you see a red Corvette in the street and the song (LRC) pops into your head. In fact, I drove the new corvette last weekend and I was praying that I'd get a red one. In fact, a friend who was with me knew that I wanted to drive a red one and sure enough, a red corvette came when it was my turn to drive it. Needless to say, I was one happy man.

Oh, when you see a red/burgandy beret, the song Raspberry Beret comes to mind.

My old high school was on the Lower East Side of Manhattan and I was a few blocks from Alphabet City and everytime I had to go to that area, Alphabet Street would come into my mind.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

you wish that every song that prince wrote that was recorded by another artist (Nothing Compares 2 U, Manic Monday) would have "written by Prince" in the credits so everyone would know just how much he's contributed to the music world.

You know you are a fan:

When your 6yr old asks for Life of the Party off the Musicology CD cause it's now her favorite song.

You parents like prince cause you gave them your extra copy of his Hits CDs.


When your sister once compared you, her and your parents to a line in When Doves Cry and you freakin got it.

Record the Grammy's last yr on my cable box and keep it until it no longer there to watch so you can watch Prince and Beyonce over and over again.

Have a friend you work with make sure she gets a symbol t-shirt for you when she goes to his concert.


When you have a big fight with your grandmother when LiveAid comes to tv cause you don't want to leave the house until you see Prince. (Not one of my best moments) But I really had to see the video.

I'm having so much fun reading this thread that i just HAVE 2 add my little brick on that freaky purple wall...

U know u're a Prince fan when...

- ... in high-school, u did ur hair like a girl, willing 2 b just a controversial as tha man... (well, people just called me gay, but at least, i tried!)

- ... u take it really personnally when, playing the first notes of "purple rain" in paris during the ONA tour, he says "this is my song, Paris...this is your song too..."

- ...u spend all ur money on the new "ONA.. Live!" box set instead of buying a present for ur sister's new born baby

[b]i so did that. i was out of school when Graffiti Bridge was on HBO.
i stayed home every day when it was on that channel. i also stay home later if he is on something.
if a song is due on the radio, or if he is supposed to be on anything, i am there.

You scan articles of anyone who had any type of association with Prince hoping that they talk about him. I just did that with an article about Kirstie Alley in Entertainment Weekly.
