Prince Contradictions I'm wondering how many of these we can list, (inspired by 2 recent threads- "mistakes he's made, and "where does he live").
So off the top of my head... 1. He said in an 80's interview that if Mark Brown left he'd "eliminate bass" from his music. 2. He used to say he'd always live in Minnesota, but now has demolished his house. This topic intrigues me since he's tried so hard not to talk, didn't give interviews for so long, but yet has still managed to get so many contradictions out there. I know everyone changes their mind, especially fickle Gemini's (I'm one ) but I'd bet people can come up with a lot of these. Ask where they're going, they'll tell U – "Nowhere"

or Soft & Wet..... but of course, this is not what I was going for!!! Here's another- writes Dead On It, then adds Tony M to the band, ugh. Ask where they're going, they'll tell U – "Nowhere"

I love that song, it gives one vibe and then he turns around and says the exact opposite. He's a very complex fellow to say the least, but that's one of those things I like about him. had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone | |

"I never been one 2 hide my feelings" in Space and then "All my life I've kept my feelings deep inside" in Letitgo good one, esp. since those were on the same album...but still waiting for someone to post something said in interviews or elsewhere. Although I'm beginning to like the lyric answers! Here's another: name change was "spiritual", name change was "getting out of undesirable contracts".

All right, well, the things he's said about remaking songs, how he doesn't want people covering his songs and then he does covers, live and on albums.
Also, he doesn't want people to change his lyrics at all if they remake one of his songs, but he has changed the lyrics to many of the songs he's remade. How's that? | |

yes, thank goodness is right!!! I've been watching the Larry King interview tonight, got distracted before the end- I love it! (been thinking about starting a new thread on this interview- maybe I should go do that ) Ask where they're going, they'll tell U – "Nowhere"

Saying he doesn't care what people think about him but said he used to get into fights when people talked about the way he & his band dressed. But I'm sure he just grew out of that with maturity. | |

1) "I prefer to call them friends, not fans..."
2) "Consider yourself served!" | |

Prince is a human like the rest of us, and he's entitled to change his mind. He was paying Mark a compliment for his bass playing, but why would Prince base the rest of his career on the chance of NOT having bass in it? He still has Paisley Park, he has residence, trust me. | |
