Wait What!!!!

She's tryna leave also OH HELL 2 THA NIZZAW!!!

We need u and your posts that takes an hour long to read!

I came with certain objectives in mind:

* To learn more about Prince's career from those who've known him longer
* Find out which albums I should have in my collection
* To discuss his music and almost everything relating to him

I've gained a lot of knowledge in the short time I've been here.

But I didn't sign up for the disapproval rating towards Prince.
All of the bad mouthing over his actions is getting out of hand.

I mean, it's called a fansite, right? Aren't fans people who actually support and care about the output of an artist so much that they come here to discuss it and make friends who share similar opinions of said artist?

I look around here lately and I see few people who fit my definiton of fan, which is a synonym for supporter/admirer.

I'm not saying that I agree with the extents that he's going to in order to censor [and perhaps silence] fansites. But I don't think he really wants to go through all this trouble. Maybe he feels its something he has to do. They do say he is overprotective of his work, right? That's why he wanted his masters back for WB and got into the whole battle. This is probably the exact same thing, but on a far greater scale so more people are affected.

People claim that Prince owes them. I don't think he owes us anything. He has given us his musical gifts in album form almost yearly. Few other artists distribute that much material. They should be grateful he's at least giving us that.

@ ur signature U r 2 much

THIS IS GETTING REAL UGLY IN HERE.
PEOPLE..IT'S ALL IN THIS SONG...LISTEN TO IT. REALLY LISTEN TO IT.
YOU CANT SAY HE DIDN'T WARN YOU!!


Sitting on the floor of an all white room
Feeling like the color blue
Thinking about the words that I can use
2 get this through 2 U

A million mistakes and then some
I've made with the 1's B4
I probably passed my expiration date
But still I adore U... Adore U...

Looking 4 the energy 2 take U there
The place's that U wanna go
Knowing if I do, U'r fully aware
The press will turn it in to a show

Everyone expects this outcome
But still they jump 4 all the crew
I Guess should be happy but I'm still not
Sure that U realy love me...

Love me... Love me... Love me... U love me...

Like the Lion of Judah
I Strike my enemys down
As my God is living
Surely the trumpet will sound
There was 1 who would stand by my side
Through the good and the bad
Let that 1 stand with pride
The best that I ever had

Like the lion of judah

Driving away with a smile on my face
Wind blowing through my hair
Wondering how U'll feel when U find out
How much I really care (I care)

Hoping that the tears roll down U'r face (Down U'r face)
Your body grasp who we are (Who are we?)
2 gypsy beggars who only by Vegas
Came 2 be a star
(A super star)
A star
That's what we are...

Like the Lion of Judah (Judah)
I strike my enemys down
Like the lion of judah (Judah)
Surely U....gonna hear the trupet sound
Hear the trumpet will sound


The Lion of Judah

I'd be careful he may sue you for posting the lyrics to his song. Infact he may sue me for discusing this.

Well.. I'll catch you in court. Peace!

Mplsmike....I love your new avatar

'Away with the pixies' is what springs to mind when I read DPR's posts. She sounds young, naive and rather silly. But it takes all sorts I guess. Unless she's old enough to know better, in which case take heed of P's words love, 'Crack kills!'. And lose the blinkers for fucks sake

:cracks knuckles:

Okay guys, this probably will be my very last post on prince.org.
It is sad and unfortunate, yes. But I feel that it's something that I have to do.

When I lost Internet access in the middle of the summer, it has hard at first, but I eventually dealt it. I listened to the music on my own, developed on my own opinions... if I was around here when Planet Earth came out, I could have been "conned" into not like it cuz the overall dynamic was disapproval. I'm grateful that I love the album because it's a lot of great music.

Purplesweat, all I can say is
I haven't heard around any of my posts and suddenly you're coming with all of this. Go ahead and think I'm a nut, see if I can. I know for a fact that part of my sanity did go today ...but it comes with supporting Prince, I guess. You can't be completely sane in order 2b so.

To clarify 4 those who haven't figure it out yet, I am female and this is me:
Prince ...nothing but love. For him and his

I want to continue enjoying his music on my own terms. I've learned a lot about him since I first got here and I got all the advice I could ever want about the albums that should be in my collection. I can take it from here. My album reviews are overlooked and I can't write threads like I used to. There's nothing left for me here, so I have no problem with leaving. Just maybe part of me is afraid that all of this negativity will get to me and turn me against Prince. I don't want that to happen, especially when I just got on the ride.

Thekidsgirl and SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy... thanks so much for your support, Send me an OrgNote if you want my email or the address to my blog. I was pleased to see you write multiple posts in the direction I'm going. Maybe I'll start an email list of my friends here and keep in touch that way. Sure beats the negativity here.

VegasE, I liked your posts too. Haha, I'm actually flattered that you think I could be Prince with the way I post. That's probably one of the best compliments I've been given (other than someone saying my poetry is as good as that of his Greatness). And my u/n is the best way I can describe Prince, note the dreamy expression on my avatar. And he's Pop Royalty... been around a long time, Pop is one of his many genres, and his name IS Prince, after all.

I've always been all 4 Love when it comes to Prince. I've rarely had a bad thing to say about him. Even now, I hold no grudge and I feel no hatred. I'll continue to lend my support anyway I can. I'll continue my blog posts.
Just 2b on the safe side, I'll print it all out tomorrow at the computer lab. That way, I won't have lost any trace of the 8 months of history Ive written there. [Edit: did so... 8 months= 101 pages of history. Even if the worst happens, at least I'll have a hard copy of my evolving perception of Prince]
I'll continue with whatever thoughts of him come to mind and review his albums. Just what I've always been doing, but on a smaller scale.

This is the mark I will leave behind and be remembered by.

I love Prince and his music. I will always support Prince no matter the outcome of all this. As long as I have the music, nothing else matters to me. I don't believe Prince hates his fans. His actions say otherwise, but deep down, I know that he does care about his supporters. I know he is a good person. I made it officially by coming here and gaining whatever knowledge I could about him. And I vowed that "DreamyPopRoyalty will always have great Loyalty towards Prince"

He may never acknowledge me, but I don't care about that. Just in case he's watching, though, I praise him and pledge my support. Call this "blind devotion" if you will, call it whatever you want. Won't change how I feel about this man and his wonderful, beautiful music.

Prince

And I apologize for leaving my friends behind. But I will keep in touch with a bunch of you thru email. And if you want to stay in touch with me, send me a ORGnote and I'll give you my email if you want to talk.

Perhaps this is what he meant when he said, "All that glitters ain't gold"

These 9 months were just the beginning. I plan on sticking with Prince for years to come and he doesn't control me. I've taken this path on my own terms, by my own choice. And no1 is going to tell me otherwise.

[haha... you shouldn't be too surprised my last post is the one of the longest, perhaps the longest I've ever written]

Edit: One week from today, I will post a non-Prince topic under the General Discussion boards. Something personal so you know a little something else about me. The date has signifiance and it's not a birthday. But it is life-changing.
I may very well start posting here once everyone calms down. I'd like to add that I may have been a tad harsh on my statements. Prince is at fault because of this harsh approach, but the haters are more to blame for exaggerating things. That's the reason why I left in the first place, people taking something like removing pictures/lyrics/tattoos so seriously

Well, i can't say i'm surprised.
Like i said, i really don't think this is the place for you.
You want a sanitized, Prince approved forum where every comment is glowing and positive.

Just a reminder, though.
When you end up at Paisley Park at a group marriage ceremony,
reading bible scriptures,
when they pass around the little cups,
with the purple kool-aid?



You might want to take a pass.
Just a suggestion.

LMAO! I know right? this was it for me too. Ridiculous.....do u think you are like Princess Diana or something??? In her mind she must think we all hang on her every word. I remember someone posted a DPR appriciation thread ( prince.org/msg/100/242961 ), 2 people responded, then after a month and a half she responded, bumping it up saying "OMG I can't believe this thread is still alive!!



The only reason it was still alive is because she responded to herself. like get over yourself.... At least she is good for a laugh

She posted a review for one Prince album she got and she didn't finish it all so she posted with "I'm sure everyone will be waiting with baited breath for me to come back!" Yeah...not really....
