OK ... so I'm sitting here listening to the music of my childhood. "Controversy" is playing hard through the speakers of my computer. Thank God I work by myself most days.

The song "Do Me Baby" comes on. And as I sit here (happily enjoying the warm feeling that is flooding through me and glad to be here by myself) I realize hey ... I was 13 when I bought this album.

My kid is 13.

If my kid was listening to this kinda raunchy mess, I'd be burning CDs in the backyard with kerosene as an accelerant.

That's when I realized it was Prince and his dirty mind that created the perv I have become today.

Vive le Prince!!

LOL

I can still remember the crush I had when I was 13. I thought he was superfly. And listening to Prince when I got home from school was just the mojo I needed to keep me (self-edited to keep me from incriminating myself).

After all these years, I'm still vibing hard on the music. It never stops creating the craving. And I tell you what ... there are some jewels ...

From "When I Lay My Hands On You" to "One Kiss at a Time" to "Do Me Baby" ... and so many others ... there is likely one of his songs as the catalyst to much of the fun and trouble I've had over the years.

I'm glad my kid likes Prince music. But I'm gonna keep the (stash) to give her until after she is married.

This is grown folks' music!!

Still Sweaty ...

Prince's music didn't turn me into a pervert. It did however shape my open mindedness about my sexuality and that's a mighty good thing!

Forever may he reign supreme!!

lol i remember in 10th grade when i played a prince mixtape i had with "Pink Cashmere" on it...as it got 2 the chorus,the baddest babe in the chourus class i was in at the time with a appalonia body and jill jones eyes/vibe, turned in my direction and smiled at me.... we got 2 talkin soon after and it turned out her favorite prince song was "the beautiful 1ns" then from there we got close like apples & the kid after he played "purple rain"....

i was already pervy when i started listening to 'im.

Now why isn't that surprising me?

In my opinion, The only Prince song that is capable of turning someone into a pervert is "Sister" off the Dirty Mind album. That song still makes me go UGGGGGHHHH!!!!!

Do u know anyone whos NOT a perv who listened to him (back in his dirty days)?

That's 4 sure .

I was trying to remember the first time I listened to "Head" the other day...
I think I was about 16...:-

I turned Prince into a pervert.

I think prince just helped me go in a direction I was already headed and not feel so lonely, i'm truly a perv got the record to prove it.

I think listening to Prince from about the age of 12 (1992 for me) and then discovering all his music by the age of 15 made really appreciate loads of things.....

As for being a perv, you better ask my girlfriend!

I was already pervy when I started listening to P. at the tender age of 15.

No good can come from sheltering a kid from good music, pervy or otherwise.

Well, I lick toes. Go figure.

Jada!!!!
I'm shocked and appalled....(OK not really)
Although I never had any idea that you were a self professed perv.....
Good to know that I'm not alone in that respect though.

JadaKaye and D on the same thread!!!


s all around!
