Letters?

Has anyone written Prince? What did you write? Did he respond back in anyway? I heard that sometimes he puts bits of pieces of letters written to him in his music. I want to write to him, but I dont know what to write. lol. Maybe I can get some ideas.

why waste your time? prince doesn't read letters written to him. some flunky on his payroll is just opening them and enjoying the used panties and nude polaroid shots. i wouldn't be surprised if they're all disposed of unopened.

No I talked to the guy at Paisley who opened them. He was instructed to open them and then throw them away if they weren't dangerous sounding or whatever. They did not get to Prince.

Some fams are reported to the authorities if they cross the line. The best crazy fam I ever saw was the girl who pulled up to Paisley Park before a show and turned up her car stereo put on Pussy Control and stripped on top of her car. Prince or his people called the cops smile

Since I know that my letter would probably go to one of his flunkies if it was addressed directly to him,
I wrote to Larry instead, asking him what were the chances that he could pass my letter on to Purple One himself.

He wrote back, responding "One in a million."

that's crazy that u asked this question because i just wanted to ask it... I always want to send him a letter thanking him for the amazing shows I've seen and music he's given us, and I know it's probably not going to get to him but somehow I always hang on to a string of hope... anyway, i hope he knows how much we appreciate him

P is a gift from god, whatever he or she may be, and blesses us every day that we can enjoy his music

I hate ppl on here who are pessimistic on here about fans wanting to write to Prince! I have always wanted to write him too. You have to have hope in life, otherwise it's not worth living. For ppl who think they're just "keepin' it real" by saying letters are a waste of time and that fans are stupid to even want to try, Y'ALL ARE HATERS! Keep hope alive! wink

If I ever wrote Prince a letter,

oh man, I shudder at that thought... all of the paper I'll want to use.

Anyway, if I could get my thoughts together and compressed, I know the reality of it that he won't answer back no matter how well I write it or how well I understand him (at least I think I do).

However, someday, he will get to it.

And with what I write, I'm certain to brighten his day and give him a sense of accomplishment that he could reach a fan the way he's reached me. So what if I don't get an answer back (impossible nonetheless)? I'm a person who usually gives more than they take.

Heh, "there are two kinds of people and the differences they make, the ones that give and the ones that take."

Prince and I have or will have a very balanced relationship with that phrase in his speech. He gives me wonderful, beautiful music, and I take it in. I give back to him by buying his music and praising it and he takes that, feeling very proud of himself for it (and for good reason).

I feel like I definitely give more than take... and Prince is no exception. Although he most likely won't read them, I've given him so much praise on this forum. I just feel like I really get him and what he stands for, but he just makes that so easy.

I'd like nothing more than to one day write him a letter, saying how much I admire/respect him just to bring a smile to his face.
had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone
