If you need to express yourself on this topic... express it here.

If you're feeling wayyyyy negative, but knows that the Org doesn't want twenty gazillion negative threads floating around... be negative (within reason) here.

If you're feeling wayyyyy positive, but knows the naysayers gonna jump your shit on the thread u create... be positive (with a "+" sign) here.

If u just want to vent in general... be a general here. We're your new funky soldiers, and we ready to hear ya out.

Oh, warning - Chill on the personal attacks on one another... it will not be tolerated, and you'll end up wishing you hadn't. no no no!

Not sayin' this is the end all and be all of the PFU topic threads... if you have something truly original to share... by all means do it. If you don't, please express ya'self here.

Thanks y'all...


I don't get it - I agree with the case against Ebay...(especially the way they ended up selling tickets for tens times the price they already were!) but why the fans - it'll end up with negative behaviour and less and less fans will have things to share...quoting another org member...Prince - Don't bite the hand that feeds you...enough is enough already...Good Luck to all Prince.org, Housequake.com and everyone who is/was a Prince fan!

for a while now, i have been observing Prince get dissed left/right/centre, not only here, but at housequake as well. i have been asking myself, if people hate prince so much, why not totally dis-associate themselves from any site related to him, his music and anything he does. but instead, these forums have become places where the above category of individuals get their thang on.

in now way am i suggesting that critisism of Prince is wrong, it's just that you're either a fan or not, a supporter or not. the way i see it, Prince.org is also becoming a haven for Prince haters...and I have also been here since before 2000 (in different names).

i can understand why Prince also got pissed. the man played 21 shows in London, the man is releasing videos on a weekly basis, the man is releasing almost an album a year, plus extra songs...and just because he won't allow "fans" to use his image, etc at free will - while they diss him and express all forms of hate towards him, he comes out as the villain? NO.

for years Prince allowed ppl to post images of himself here and elsewhere, but once HE starts feeling unappreciated (yes, the hate), why should he continue to do it? personally, i don't see why. in the future, true fans could start another site FORBIDDING the hate, and I'm sure Prince would allow years of sharing his image, etc...but until that day -

enjoy what we had - because the haters are the ones who caused the problems, greediness, etc. THEY want to tell Prince what to release, how to release, that it's okay for his material to be bootlegged and sold by them. LOL.

maximum respect to Prince.org and the other "big 2" for keeping us up to date, etc...but, Prince does not really need this site. believe it or not, there are other fans out there who will continue to support him and he has the know-how and vision to keep new listeners hip to his artistic creations.

thx for listening, and please dont take this personally.


Not taken personally - nicely said though...thanks - Sure I can understand why he starts to feel neglected but these sites help his fans to 'share opinion' and thoughts about Prince - it's not really for Prince himself. Plus sites like this and Housequake provide P fans what Prince's own website doesn't provide (although i'm loving the new video links on his website especially Jam of the Week) - who knows how this will pan out - have read the for and against side of this and I hope P doesn't end up losing his fans over his pictures!like i said in my previous post...good luck to all.

Negative 'Nays'-- ?rince died at Lovesexy.

Positive 'Yays'-- I am no longer a ?rince fan. There are more funkier and more FAN respectable artists out there than ?rince.

BOYCOTT! BOYCOTT! BOYCOTT!
[Edited 11/16/07 5:19am]
I may not like the man.
I may not like his music after the mid 90s.

I respect his current artistry...I just don't like him.

No hate.

A lot of you don't seem to get it. a lot of loyalty shown to prince... none to this site where you post regularly. prince.org was threatened with a lawsuit. Seems like a joke to a lot of you... it isn't. And I bet a lot of you were posting and linking to prince images... you weren't threatened with a lawsuit, so you don't give a shit.

This site has done a ton of good for prince and made nothing in return. He may have the "right" to those images... but damn... to threaten a lawsuit over it... it's a tyrannical, petty and childish move.

In the style of "The Rock"

It don't matter want any of us think, Prince has and will always do his own thing in his own way and fair play to him.

He fought for his independance and he has it.

That means he can write and sing what he wants, when he wants and as FANS/FAMS we have the choice to also love it or hate it.

Not really a dance tune, but it is three funky

Prince keep doing what you do, but occassionally show your face and not that of a lawyer.

Note: With all of this, Chelsea Rodgers which is an alright track too has disappeared from every ones radar.

We are all like funkadelic...One Nation Under a Groove

Peace...I'm outta here

PS...If you could just release a 21 nights DVD I'll be happy too

But what do you hate...

The Track

or

That the family of Unofficial Prince sites are sticking together.

If it wasn't for the track, there would be no comment. If it wasn't for the sites, there would be no place to comment.

Go back to the days of the NPGMC, great concept but you couldn't criticise. Prince.org allows for that and also helps link the family, made some good friends through here and other such sites and got into some very good shows too.


Like I said, you have a choice as does every one else

I tend to agree, but not using the bad language!
HQ just banned me for questioning their PFU Gestapo Mods.

This is ruining Prince Fandom.
In my opinion.
biggrin

LOVE the track though!

Thanks! A friendly word is nice to hear. You have cheered me up. I think I will stay around here from now on, seems like a much more open and friendly place.

And you know the reason I had multiple account was I changed my email address! I told them even! Anyhow I am deleting them from my head. I just think they are very cheeky to call them selves PFU as if they are speaking for ALL their members. Not me!

And speaking of the Warner period, that supposed answer track that he submitted to the PFU collective a couple days back sounded like a rehased track from the period with reworked lyrics and masked vocals of his former backup singer from the 86-88 era. The secret was out the box when Camille reappered. He can fool some of the people some of the time but not all of the all the time.Master of deception at play once again.


True. I busted out laughing when he said " yall better not mess wit me" on PFUnk. Cuz i'm like wait a sec...how tall are u again? lol

Its a pretty good song.
That being said, people are sheep. Any freedoms you give up, you deserve to lose. Some things are just common sense. Prince likes to do nonsensical things and have his minions on here argue in his favor. I like some of Prince's music but I don't care about Prince the man. I don't know that fool and neither do MOST of the people posting here. People make analysis about his life and his personality from his songs all of the time. Fine. Good for you. I listen to a LOT of music and I don't have time to be trying to get into the heads of every artist I listen to. In the words of Snoop - "I don't love them hoes". With that knowledge, my position on him intimidating everyday people is the same as it would be to any other BULLY. I really don't care what any of you fanbots say, there is no need to pick on a woman posting a youtube vid. That's not protecting your copyright, its being an ass. PERIOD. Attacking fansites? That's even worse. Writing a funky tune doesn't make it okay (at least not with me) and it doesn't smooth things over. Underneath it all is still an angry little man who is swiftly becoming a relic in today's music scene and is whining (suing) like a little child and taking his frustrations out on the people he knows will take it - his fans.
I don't care. I will listen, share, give away, make copies of whatever I want and that little dude and his purple kool-aid drinkers can't stop me. So, in the end - it matters not what he says or does. I don't owe him anything. Its just embarrassing and I actually hate to see him make a fool of himself like he has been lately. A little song isn't going to fix what's wrong with what he's done. He has control issues that really need to be worked out with a professional. When you die, you can't take your music with you. If you could, I bet he probably would try to. That is pathetic in and of itself.


That's quite a speech, you must have spent some time putting that together.

For someone who only cares for the music. Why did you bother.

Log off, and go and listen to your music.

Your pathetic within yourself.

wink

However i respect your right to make your opinion heard.love and peace.

biggrin


No, you don't. Elsewise, you wouldn't suggest he log off. Nor state he is pathetic. You're being insulting.

No speech, just an expression of opinion. It only sounds contrived to those who don't think outside of the symbol. When you are an independent thinker instead of a fanboy, it comes easy. You're all up and down this thread expressing your opinion and when someone says something to the contrary, your response is that the level of fan you are entitles you to more of an opinion? Not a very bright response. I "bothered" because I can. If that makes me "pathetic within myself" (whatever that's supposed to mean) rolleyes then I'll take that label with pride. I'd rather be a pathetic independent thinker than an idolworshipper.

lust and pieces.

It just it hurts me someone calls me fam sheep, it' just not neccessary to stoop to calous insult's

You have a lot spitefulness towards me. .

I hope you get your issues within yourself sorted soon, So you may enjoy a happy and peaceful life.

Love and peace.

Prince loves you, as do I.
Like i said, i respect your opinion, even if i don't agree with you.

PFunk is a great tune.

biggrin


This is unendurable....I need to smoke some Hawaiian buds, bright green, with red threads woven in, and sticky with resin, to be in THAT state of mind....along with a bottle of Babcock chard, in which case , I'd be peacefully passed out...
This is sounding too much like Religion.

i do NOT support the open hatred of prince, the flaming and name calling that 's been happening on Prince.ORG lately. that part really bothers me.

imo folks need to sit down and wait this out, find out what is going on behind the scenes, the actuall facts that none of us know in full, instead of becoming all angry and hateful. just my 2c

100% agree with you. Pity some 'other' sites don't.
This has gotten way out of hand. I am a prince fan, that is why i'm here.
I may not agree with everything he does, but god I don't agree with some 'fans' getting their "15 seconds of fame" as he puts it. A little bit of power goes straight to the cortex. No more. No more insults, no more nastyness pretty please!

Keep this a fan site, or a lot of us will have no where left to go!

eek Where have you been this whole time? haha... I think what you said is exactly what I've been dying to say this whole time. You know, negativity here is so thick you can cut thru it with a knife, its hard to think with the bad karma floatin' around and keeping me from thinking straight.

clapping Both of you guys are awesome, thanks for this posts clapping

And I agree 110% with you guys. cool

How I feel?

DISILLUSIONED.

that sums it up.
I just watched the American Music Awards. Everyone is THANKING their fans.
Of course, these are singers and musicians who aren't tainted, been in the business 30 years, long in the toothe, and whatnot....
No! They're fresh, positive, and talented.

Seeing Beyonce, reminded me of how she felt bad about performing with Prince, and appologized for getting "carried away" during her performance, and behaved as a diva,
Alecia Keyes being told by Prince she shouldn't use four letter words.....from someone who dressed unusual in his day....
Sheesh!
How the HELL did it come to this?
