Yeah my brother makes fun of me for being a prince fan and says that he is a one hit wonder with "purple rain" (which is the only prince song he's heard)i said to him unless you've heard his other stuff from the past 20 odd years you cant judge him on that one song! he's so nieve but he refuses to listen to any other of his albums. its very hard to get through to people about this man ive discoverd people dont want to except that he's a dam good artist!!!

Hmm...just a wild guess, but it's probably more about spiting you than it is about not liking Prince.

Face him with the facts:

Top 10 singles (U.S. Hot 100)
"Little Red Corvette" | "Delirious" | "When Doves Cry" | "Let's Go Crazy" | "Purple Rain"
"I Would Die 4 U" | "Raspberry Beret" | "Pop Life" | "Kiss" | "Mountains" | "Sign “☮” the Times" | "U Got the Look"
"I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man" | "Alphabet St." | "Batdance" | "Thieves In the Temple"
"Cream" | "Diamonds and Pearls" | "7" | "The Most Beautiful Girl in the World"

he wont listen to me about it. he listens to his cold play and christian music i'll stick my prince!

Nothing against your brother, but people who listen to Prince's music are a little more global. Prince's music hits all genres. Now, I like christian music myself and have a large collection, but there is something about Prince's music that takes you to other places that Cold Play doesn't take me too (I do like Cold Play, but I don't hear funk in their music)

quite right. i listen to prince on my cd walkmen and nobody can disturb me when ive got it on im in my own world.literally people bang my door and i just cant heat them!

naoirv said:

sure do. Prince just doesnt stick with one genre.

yo thibaut,
make your christian brother a mix tape of prince's spiritual songs. i think that'll blow him away.

the cross, God, 4the tears in your eyes, anna stesia, still would stand all time,love, the word, last december, etc.

i think he'll rethink some things.

I was thinking the same thing. It's how I got my Christian girlfriend to respect Prince. Before then she had only heard of the song "Kiss" and what other people had said about Prince.

Oh my sister is younger than me and hell she hates P so I can't listen 2 him whenever i want.When she listens a p song she starts screaming and yelling and everyday she make fun of him....she hates him she tells me tha I'm stupid and that he is like a granfather and don't even think 2 bring home a man like p....and that he dresses like an idiot...and for deserve....well he is a gemini like u so that's y he is stupid!

datdude said:

that is a good idea. thanks for that. but still dont think he'll open his mind to him. and im a christian to you know so i like christian music but i can still appreciate prince in fact i love prince. my brothers not very open minded really

Well if he wasn't your brother I'd tell him where to go.
