Why? Not to butt in on his right to a religious free choice. and not because he makes worse music - 3121 and Musicology were very inspired albums in my opinion. But, if he still is - then we might never get another Crystal Ball compilation! and children are still starving to death...and we still havent found a cure for aids. but hey, a man making his own life choices...if its at the expense of your musical enjoyment?

One did contain a storyline with some images that the most frigid ones would consider 'erotic', the other one being a plain performance video. As far as i can see the version with the storyline (some shots of a woman in bed) is withdrawn, and the performance only version is the ones showing right now on music channels. That 'switch' gives me the scary feeling Prince is censoring his video's. Maybe as a result of fellow JW's asking for it (on housequake.com there has been a lot of discussion about this subject). Its really time Prince starts to follow his soul and intuition again, instead of letting himselve be adjusted by some dogmatic, sectarian view on reality. Get a grip Prince, and choose for reality, you need it. Battered Prince fan turns into

Are you trying to say that we are not all here because of our interest in the "musical enjoyment" of Prince's music? but hey, ridiculing views on religion's influence on that selfsame music - that's unfair. And hey, I never wrote anything about its importance being greater than starvation and aids. I am very much concerned with global issues and find your comment condescending. My point was: Our only concern with the man's religious beliefs should be whether it influences his musical output. i am not saying that he should stop being a JW, that's his own life choice. But as I have understood it, this forum is among other things about: 1) How do we like his music? and 2) Are we ever gonna hear it all? | |
