I don't know or care whether he was high, drunk, on some ego trip or whatever!

What I do know is that HE OBVIOUSLY WASN'T THERE TO PERFORM!!! Michael Jackson's punk ass knew that, too! That's why he had James Brown call him up there, to deliberately embarrass him!

Guess Prince ended up with the last laugh though!! razz

michael didn't want to go up there in the first place..james brown kept insisting

theres another theory that says that MJ saw Prince backstage getting high with some of james browns band members so he knew prince would loose the competition and thats why he left when prince came up.

I AM actually focussing on the topic in hand.
You quoted lyrics from [i:96cfa2e517]Play In The Sunshine[/i:96cfa2e517] as support for your claim that he used drugs.

If you read the whole quote you wrote you would realise that it is saying they want to have fun WITHOUT margarita or ecstacy (and no you can't spell ecstacy or ass).

I withdraw my offer of help with english as you cuss and send me an orgnote calling me an "assx". I have also blocked you.

Think before you write and grow up child !

Oh and btw VERBIAGE means [i:96cfa2e517]unnecessary words[/i:96cfa2e517].

ONCE AGAIN AN IDIOT SPEAKS WITH IGNORANCE -
Let me clarify for you, a single word in language may have different forms or spellings, example you spell "realise" that way which is correct...IN SWEDEN. We spell the same word as "realize" which is correct in THE UNITED STATES. But someone, such as yourself, from SWEDEN who lacks the capacity to understand different vernaculars would argue that it was spelled incorrectly. You state that verbiage means excessive words and my use of such was incorrect. By saying "blind fanship devotion" would that not be a valid example of excessive use of words, since I could have used just devotion or fanship.

My spelling of ecstacy. Well you got me there I misspelled the word. Please note your spelling is incorret it's E-C-S-T-A-S-Y...wait what's this, http://www.dtt-lyrics.com.../sign.html the link to the DTT Lyrics page for Play In The Sunshine...oh and that's how they spell it. Gosh (that's a word of exuberance or shock sometimes a substitute for God as in Gosh Damn instead of God Damn - I had to define it because you may not have this word in good ole Stockholm, Sweden - is there a pattern here). But alas, their choice of spelling could be wrong. Wait what's this, http://web4health.info/en...danger.htm another link unrelated to Prince that offers the same spelling of ecstacy as exstacy. I don't believe it, how can this be considering you are spelling it correctly (not). Oh I know...BECAUSE YOU ARE IGNORANT and lack the ability to even consider yourself wrong.

As for my use of the lyrics from Play In The Sunshine - well again that illustrates your inability to comprehend ones writing. I submitted the lyrics not to support the idea of Prince using drugs in the performance in question, just to present an example Prince's view of drug use.

And now the spelling of ASSX. That is cyberspeak. It is one way of saying asshole to the extreme or extreme asshole. The 'X' means eXtreme do u understand now ASSX. what do u think petskix.

An example that says he's against drugs.

"ONCE AGAIN AN IDIOT SPEAKS WITH IGNORANCE"

You are absolutely right, you did. Stockholm is the capital of Sweden and does not lie in England. Maybe you need help with geography as well as english comprehension ?

As for the name calling, grow up get a life and get down from your high horse.

If you want to take part in discussions on this forum maybe you can stop writing like a spoilt brat and accept that others have a different opinion to you instead of going off on some ego trip speaking but not listening to the masses.

The issue here was what I stated about the performance - and still I validated what I said correctly. The reality of all things is you had no real reason to attack my person if you really were concerned about the topic then you would not have focused on such - it is sad because people like you make this the most bitter experience online. What kind of ASSX are you???
You speak of people having a different opinion yet this entire banter was prompted by your unsolicited attack on my writing and grammar. You stated that I needed english lessons. Again nothing to do with the actual topic and when I confront you and illustrate YOUR errors you turn it around as if I caused the problem. If only we could meet in person.


Whendovescry2000 has responded to the ASSX PETSKIX.



Bury him face down, let the motherfuckers kiss a ass, OK?

How can you not tell??? Are you blinded by your fanship devotion???

We wanna play in the sunshine, we wanna be free
Without the help of a margarita or exstacy
We wanna kick like we used 2, sign up on the dotted line
We're gonna dance every dance like it's gonna be the last time


So your original comment was adding to an open friendly discussion ?
You state your opinion without support and then say PERIOD, how does this make for a pleasant discussion ?

It was this attitude towards those that dont agree that laid open for comment on your person.

You continue with name calling, how does that add to a pleasant experience ?

You mentioned that someone AGAIN focussed on you instead of the topic, maybe you should take timeout to think why this is the case. Could it be you inability to have an open discussion without name calling or not accepting that others differ from you ?

It's you and your childish comments that ruin it for others, not me, I have not once been rude or called you names besides "child" because you act like one...

"I'm right you're wrong, PERIOD. Nah, Nah."

What do you get out of name calling ? Does it make you feel big and strong, more like a man ? Do you do this in real life ? Or is it just on the net where you can hide behind anomynity ?

CAN'T SOMEBODY LOCK THIS THREAD, ITS GOING NOWHERE. HE'S GONNA CONTINUE COS HE CAN'T LOSE FACE EVEN THOUGH HE DOESNT HAVE ONE.

Once again I must deal with the unknown and address a person that I really don't care for or about - do you see what you have started? - I made a simple comment about a Prince performance and you chose to attack my english, my grammar, spelling, use of vocab and basic ability of communication. I responded DIRECTLY to you and answered your attacks with facts but instead of an acknowledgement you continue by bring your apeal to the masses of this chat. I have contacted you via online notes asking tha we talk in a chat room and you say nothing but yet instead of trying to resolve you continue to attack me here. So sad.

Is this what is meant by turning the other cheek?

MY REQUEST OF CLARIFICATION TO YOUR COMMENT AND YOUR RESPONSE

I AM actually focussing on the topic in hand.
You quoted lyrics from Play In The Sunshine as support for your claim that he used drugs. (No I was not using this support anything and I never said he used drugs - I said he was blasted which could mean anything including achohol)

If you read the whole quote you wrote you would realise that it is saying they want to have fun WITHOUT margarita or ecstacy (and no you can't spell ecstacy or ass). (again not intended to support any thing other than his (Prince) view of drug use. Spelling for xtc was as it appears on the lyrics page verbatim)

I withdraw my offer of help with english as you cuss and send me an orgnote calling me an "assx". I have also blocked you. (again snide remark and subtle tattle tale action)

Think before you write and grow up child ! (Still nothing to do with actual topic but now personal attacks)

Oh and btw VERBIAGE means unnecessary words. [Edited 8/13/07 16:58pm]

Now to return to the lecture at hand - I honestly believe that Prince was high - again this is my opinon, my view based on seeing his performance and comparing it to others of that time period. The band (JB's) was thrown off because they were waiting for Prince to break out with a riff or something...but it never happened. In any event I think Prince was still cool even if I believe he had a lil' sumin sumin in his blood.

For once I will defend Michael Jackson - He didnt plot to get Prince up there to embarrass him. If was just the "It's not fair Daddy if I have to dance so does my brother." That's all - the fact that Prince went up their may be the indication he was drunk - for that truly is not his style.

I've seen the video clip plenty of times and to me it DOES NOT look like he's under the influence of anything...it's just Prince being Prince, that's how he always acted in that era, he always had that weird/mysterious/sexfreak vibe...I guess the "Darling Nikki" vibe that someone else is referring to... even people around Prince during that era have said P never used drugs. Chick Huntsberry said P didn't do drugs. I have no way of knowing for sure but I just never get the impression that he's high in that clip.


It doens't have to be actual drugs it could have been achohol. But I still beleive our purple brother was HIGH.

Its definitely not MJ's fault that P was in rare form that night but still I do question his motives for calling P up there that night. Maybe he was like "sheesh if i gotta get up here and wing it he should have to too." lol I posted on another thread about this a while back and I said i thought Mike looked out in the audience and saw P sitting there looking like he was on Cloud 9 and was like hmm lets get him up here this should be interesting...

A big THANKU to all the orgers who sent me the link.
I was expecting much worse.
MJ seemed to be doing a I can act just like James Brown bit
while Prince seemed to be saying I'm the new James Brown bit.
I thought they both came off fine.
It does seem unfair that when MJ takes the stage the band stops to give him his solo spot but doesn't do the same for Prince.
As far as being high - who knows?
The lamp post falling over was hilarious.
