Printable*** UPDATE ***
Data summrised up until post 26. ** please correct any obvious mistakes Ive made**! average age of voters (who gave their age): 38 - its 34 if you take out the guy aged 96! number of voters: 23 number of males: 11 number of females: 5 undecided: 7 ** CURRENT RANKING after 26 posts *** (note 3 points for favorite, 2 points for second and one point for third) SOTT 26 Parade 20 1999 19 TGE 13 Lovesexy 13 Purple Rain 12 Love Symbol 7 Emancipation 6 TRC 4 Prince 3 The Vault 2 Slaughterhouse 2 D&P 2 Come 2 ATWIAD 2 3121 2 Planet Earth 1 Controversy 1 C&D 1 Grand 138 In terms of albums mentioned... this is the order... SOTT 11 Parade 8 1999 8 TGE 7 Lovesexy 7 Purple Rain 6 TRC 3 Love Symbol 3 Emancipation 3 Prince 2 Come 2 3121 2 The Vault 1 Slaughterhouse 1 Planet Earth 1 D&P 1 Controversy 1 C&D 1 ATWIAD 1 *** other stats *** "FIRSTS" SOTT 5 1999 5 Parade 4 Purple Rain 3 Lovesexy 2 Love Symbol 2 TGE 1 Emancipation 1 "SECONDS" SOTT 5 Parade 4 TGE 4 Lovesexy 2 1999 1 ATWIAD 1 D&P 1 Emancipation 1 Prince 1 Slaughterhouse 1 TRC 1 The Vault 1 "THIRD" Lovesexy 3 Purple Rain 3 1999 2 3121 2 TGE 2 TRC 2 Come 2 C&D 1 Controversy 1 Emancipation 1 Planet Earth 1 SOTT 1 Love Symbol 1 Prince 1 *** SUMMARY *** Still early days... SOTT is the runaway leader in terms of both mentions and the leaderboard. A true favorite among fans. Parade is second on both lists. I always knew is was a fan favorite, but not this strong! 1999/Lovesexy/PR are up near the top as expected. TGE is a surprise to me, so high at number 4 on both lists.. I also thought ATWIAD would fare better, but perhaps not amongst fan favorites at the moment.. Notable eclusions: The Black Album Musicology Dirty Mind not picked even once! To xplnyrslf - the age bit was included as I was keen to find out what each generation of Prince fan favored.. Im not trying to be ageist! At the moment I dont have enough stats to get any meaningful age related data, but I think it will be interesting... Please keep voting! | |

Posting age and gender is completely voluntary.  I just noticed there are a few who responded to my "Average Age of a Prince Fan" but didn't post their age here.
It would be nice to see if there's a trend related to age and albumes chosen. How's this for a theory: the older fans will post "Purple Rain" more frequently. (Myself, being the exception)  | |

(Myself, being the exception) I think the 30 somethings (like me), will most likely vote for Parade, PR, Lovesexy and SOTT, in fact this is how the trend is now. Younger fans will vote for TRC, TGE and maybe more recent albums.. Lets see how it pans out.. | |

Its easy, all you have to do is put a number next to the ones you like. so 1 is best and 3 is 3rd best, etc.. also, if you want, please add sex and age. It will be interesteing to see the results and the types of people pick depending on sex and their age as well... I am predicting mostly males over 30+ on the site and albums from 1982-1988 will feature predominantly as favorites with recent trilogy musicology/3121/PE featuring as second or third favorites... Hopefully the thread doesnt die and it will be a (near) decisive factor on what the majority consider their favs.. It can be in any color or font you like as long as the result is clear to me. Also, try not to rubbish or contest someone else's choices and please keep chat to a minimum as Im only really trying to get the statistics for this one.. (call me a nerd ) .
Also, please no duplicates.. I will check anyway but it only ruins it for everyone!! Thanks and Peace to all! 
PS - It would be nice if this was a sticky, but Im not moderator and I understand there are probably too many stickies right now.. I may give it a "bump" every now and then though.. PPS - Also let me know if Ive missed an album (I dont think I have) or got any dates wrong. I have obviously left off compilations, greatest hits, and his participation as a writer or musician, although I have added NPS as I consider this a Prince album and an essential part of the Prince collection! 35/M 1978 For You 1979 Prince 1980 Dirty Mind 1981 Controversy 1983 1999 1984 Purple Rain 1985 Around the World in a Day 1986 Parade 3 1987 Sign 'O' the Times 1987 The Black Album 1988 Lovesexy 1 1989 Batman 1990 Graffiti Bridge 1991 Diamonds and Pearls 1992 The Love Symbol Album 1994 Come 1995 Gold Experience 1996 Chaos & Disorder 2 1996 Emancipation 1998 New Power Soul 1999 Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic 1999 Crystal Ball 2001 The Rainbow Children 2003 N.E.W.S 2004 Musicology 2005 3121 2007 Planet Earth | |
