... of this recent conclusion I've drawn?

Prince and I have a lot more in common than I initially realized. I feel like he’s already taught me so much and here are a few of them:
o He writes music for the reason I write poetry, to convert our feelings about something into something more tangible. To get more of a handle of what a certain person or experience means to us. That’s the reason why musicians write music in the first place. I think I've forgotten that for a while b4 I knew him
o He grows with each experience and moves onto the next. I’ve found difficulty going backwards for that same reason. My tastes mature as I mature. Like with Jesse McCartney. I barely listen to his first album anymore because it meant something to me at a certain time and place and that time has passed. I can relate a lot more to his more recent material because when he co-wrote it, he’s closer to the age I am.
o Prince and I both put ourselves in our work. He puts his views & experiences in his work. I do the same with my fiction. There’s a little bit of me and what I was going through at that particular time in it. I write poetry to get something off my chest and express my feelings better. Prince writes his songs for the same reason.
It’s amazing how I suddenly thought all this up. It would be kinda stupid to think that he’s the only person who does this. It’s within all of us and I guess it just took him as a strong example to realize it. This whole thing somehow makes him seem a little more "human" and I can relate him a lot more.

And it just makes him seem that much more amazing.

I think you have a point.

I've just realised how much I have in common with him too.

For example, Prince breathes just like I do.

I've outgrown those other minor celebs who use artificial breathing apparatus. Now, like Prince, I use my own lungs. It's nothing short of a miracle.

And, as I've matured, I've learned to shit like Prince too.

It wouldn't surprise me if we have synchronised bowel movements.

Thank you, Prince. I knew I had it in me, but you brought out the regular guy in me.

What I think Langebleu is saying is that you're heading into crazed fan territory here.

Liking what Prince does and finding ways you relate is one thing. But you can take it too far, start projecting, and next thing you know you're convinced Prince is talking to you directly in your dreams and you're stalking him...

That's all well and good, but please don't be rude and disrespectful about it. What langebleu said was mean and completely uncalled for...Dreamy is a friend of mine, and I won't stand for her being cruelly mocked!

Just goes to show, you should think before you speak...

thats right! Dreamy wasn't doing anything wrong. go Dreamy!!

That would also apply to Dreamypoproyalty, no? If you're not prepared for the odd little bit of mocking when you post on here, then you shouldn't post in the first place, especially innermost thoughts. The Org is not a personal diary... it is a discussion board, I think people sometimes forget the public nature of it.

Thanx u guys. It's always good to know I have friends here.


I didn't think anyone'd get bent out of shape over this. Sure that first reply was... um... okay... one of my other threads died cuz people were making similar comments. I figured it was just one person twisting my words around.

I quickly realized early on that his music hits on many different levels, some of my favorite ones are where he feels more like a friend to me. (Gold!)

Coming up with that little spiel made me feel a little better.. cuz I felt like I was in a funk for a little while... its strange what happens when u listen to Prince nearly every day and when u stop for a day or two, its hard to find ur way back to where u were.

It makes me really miss HQ cuz that way I could catch up and familiarize myself with him again in a matter of minutes, I didnt have search extensively.
