You like what you like and you don't like what you don't like. Simple as that.

Just be glad that you're a fan of an artist who gives you so many choices.

rd, you are way 2 stressed. I am forever grateful for members who have brought the songs that you mentioned to Prince's attention. For me, each one is a classic. However, if i like Jughead ( I Don't) then its OK for me 2 like it. If I like that song more than Anna Stesia than my tastes aren't worse than yours, they are just different. This is the basic law of music. 2 B a Prince fan is 2 champion all kinds of music, not to spout on that U're opinions mean more than anyone else's.
If Prince is indeed reading this thread than he will agree with me - not U on this. Music is an opinion, not a fact



1. I am not stressed. I could do this all day. Im a Prince-ologist just like Luke is a self professed Pussy-ologist. If I seem brash or curt its because thats how I write.It is not an indication of my physiology of my automomic or sympathetic nervous system etc.

2. I wrote half of this as a joke..sayiing that one must learn the opinions of others to know whats good.If you seen some of my collection or knew oem of my public embarassing likes ( Neil Diamond, Manilow) youd know Im a champion of liking whatever the fuck u like and tell those who dont like it to kiss your ass- manifesto. But I decided t have some onery "what I thought was obvious" fun and ran with it although sprinkling some actual truths inside of it.

3.Mommies alright, daddies alright..they just seema little weird.

wink

Went 2 C Neil Diamond last month, I like people with a large collecton of differeing tastes. I like you're manifesto - its the same as mine

It was brilliant. Make sure you get to see him. My girlfreind laughed at me when I booked the tickets, now shes a fan. Shes done the same with Prince - I'm sure I'll have another convert on my hands after Ocober 8th. Prince live is the meaning of Prince

THANK YOU!!! At the end of that 1997 concert some guy was raving how he never liked Prince but "I just saw the greatest show on earth!" and a friend with us said "Ive sen everyone from Ozzy to blah blah blah and Prince is the greatest". Last year at the Hit N Run another friend goes "Prince is a pimp literally" and that was her first P live concert. In 1988 after Lovesexy concert ended a friend only into rap told me "R..now I understand your comprehension of Prince".

Don't like Anna Stesia...really...that's one of my favorites...however, everyone has their right to their own opinion...right??? I surely HOPE so!!!

I'll come out of the closet right now and say that I never really liked "Gett Off". And honestly, I can do without "International Lover", "Do Me Baby". While ya at it, keep SexyMF.

However, I do find it intersting that most of his fam's love Anna Stesia...a song that most people are not even aware that he made. Songs like that and "Let's pretend we're married" aren't known to the general public...those are "OUR" songs...maybe you received the baseless reaction by some people because many feel that he has made brilliant songs that go unappreciated...ala "Joy In Repetition". When those songs are not lifted up by all of us, many feel the need to attack those who are not walking lock in step. So, hey, I don't like "Prettyman"...In fact, off that CD I like "Baby Knows" and "Undisputed" the best...lock me up I guess!

non-fams only get to hear the singles, and in my mind they in no way represent what Prince is all about.I don't care about those peeps or what they think cause for the most part, they think he retired after 'most beautiful girl'

WRONG! If someone doesnt like Anna Stesia then they need to have an opinion spoon-fed to them obvioulsy..because they dont know whats good.

LOL!!!
I still don't agree with RD on this one, but I do find his stubborness amusing. Therefore, if anyone doesn't agree with me that Lovesexy is the best 45 minutes of music released by anyone ever, you are all fools. Also, if U don't love The Ladder, Cross, Free, I wish U Heaven, Scandalous, Orresitable Bitch there is something wrong with you...
Lets all be Stalinist Prince fans

Thats fine, because they used to think that the sun revolved around the earth way back when. I just dont want to have to be dead before everyone realizes that I was right lol

Seriously.

I've stated on threads that - merciful Minerva - I don't like "Anna Stesia!" People reacted to this like I insulted their mother. Well, if you mother's nams is Anna Stesia, I am truly sorry.

Then, I had the nerve to say I liked "Pheromone" on another thread, and again got my head ripped off for that. Maybe I was talking about the chemical. You never know.

I know that you all hate "Jughead" and "Tick Tick Bang," but those are easy...and yeah, I dig the Batman sdtk, but I love "Adore," so I'm not totally off the mark.

So I figured we could use this thread to clarify, once and for all, which songs it is totally not cool to like. Apparently, there's a fam heirarchy that I'm not aware of. I'm being a little sarcastic here, but still, I'm sure everyone had an opinion...

=== Xcuse me but i love TICK TICK BANG! cool
May the BELLS ring 4 U even when ur not in love. hug kisses

Songs I LOVE that most hate:

When We're Dancing Close and Slow (easily the best ballad on the album)
Tamborine
Trust (my favorite on Batman)
Loveleft, Loveright (my favorite Prince B-side)
Jughead redface (I don't mind it at all)
3 Chains o' Gold (top 10 Prince songs for me)
Pheremone
Now (top 10 Prince songs for me)
Chaos and Disorder
The Human Body (my second favorite track on all of Emancipation)
Emale (my favorite on Emancipation)
1999: the New Master
all of Rave except "Silly Game"

Songs everyone loves but I don't quite get:

Around the World in a Day
Adore (my least favorite on the second disc. Granted, I like it.)
Slow Love (I still like it.)
All My Dreams (did not live up to my expectations)
Joy in Repetition (I do love it, but it's in the middle of that album for me)
Letitgo (my least favorite real song on "Come")

Surely ther's no such thing as "cool". I can't understand anyone who don't like Anna Stesia but yet I like Arms of Orion which has gotten 2 B like saying U like Celion Dion!!
Anyway, if U like a particular song/album, who cares what someone else thinks?


I agree with U on AOO, but CD singing these lyrics? ill barf

Seriously, I like the song a lot because it combines some of Prince's sweetest harmonies with some of his raunchiest lyrics.
