You should know that Prince has said "this is the last time" many times before. He only means "until the next time."

i do hope so, youve made me feel a little better saying that thanks, just hope i dont have to wait to long....

I don't hate anything about Prince. Why should I? What he does with his music, in regards to himself or his career, has no bearing on my life. It has no impact upon my life beyond the enjoyment of his listening to his music. If he puts out a song and I like it, then I like it ~ it speaks to me in some way. If he puts out a song and I don't like it, then I don't like it ~ it doesn't speak to me but I realize it may have spoke to him at the time he did it and may speak to others. Prince is who he is and beyond adding to my life with his music, his decisions, his career, has no other impact on me.

viewaskew said:

So because he is 'eligible to be discredited', and he isn't here to defend himself against people who have a say against him, is that why you go for the gusto? Bravo, you make your points well, but isn't there always another side to the story than just what your opinion is? Sounds like we have one of those hateful fans I was mentioning!

You know what, say all you want, I really don't care, if Prince wanted to, he can defend himself, maybe he doesn't respond for a reason, because it's pointless to have to argue about small things like this. And I'm not going to waste my time arguing with you, this is a big waste of my time. So, spew whatever hate you want to hate on, it is your right after all!!!! Go ahead, have fun!

I hate that he isn't performing near me anytime soon. That I know of anyway.

Me too. What's to say?

He has no impact on you, and yet your screenname here is LittleRedCorvette?

There are many people who can think of reasons to dislike at least someo aspects of Prince's music, his decisions or his career choices. Are you incapable of that?

Imagine you were a parent. Imagine you posted some brief clip of your infant daughter dancing to "When You Were Mine" on youtube. Imagine Prince's lawyers threatened to sue you for that monumental infraction. You'd feel no negativity toward him? Hmmm....

I don't like it when he edits (censors/cleans up) his old material.

viewaskew said:

Gets your facts straight, he never threatened to sue anyone. He just took the clips because they have copywritten music on them. It happens all the time.

People act like Prince is the only who has a problem with youtube. From Mark Cuban, who said that Google buying youtube was insane. To video bloggers who's only income comes from their blog winds up on youtube and they can't get paid.

Not to mention Viacom, who's suing Google/youtube for 1 Billion dollars, and television networks remove copywritten material from there constantly.

I think the site is a great thing, but people have every right not to want their content there if they don't want it. Free advertising or not.

My facts are as straight as David Hasslehoff, thanks.

What do you think is going on with these fan sites if he never threatened to sue anyone? What's the next logical step for a cease and desist notice? You can bet your ass it's not sharing hot chocolate together over a romantic fire.

viewaskew said:

I'm talking about suing people on youtube. I know that he's gone after fansites before. But what's really changed on these sites beside the fact that you can't post material from youtube?

he may not be in the nicest favor right now with the hardcores,but Prince has done MORE for his fans than any other artist I know of.And as far as I am concerned,He owes nothing to anyone! an entire space was created for the music club....movies ...free shows ...the celebrations...25 cents for a performance hours and hours of performances and still being around 25+ years


Please! life changes and obviously he's changed. We may not like it but it is what it is!Take this time to get into other music or self improvement,Rather than moan and groan about the past.EVERYONE can say there was a moment in life where one has behaved out of character. Let the dude work himself out maybe one day he'll speak of the reasons for his actions.In the meantime becoming bitter isn't the solution to someone else's problem. In a sense music was taken,more seriously pre-internet days. The experience was the individual ...The music and lyric liner notes while after listening you either played it to death or if you didn't care for it shelved it.And maybe a concert to experience it live and being in awe of the amount of people in the arena in the same vibe ! Now we have tons of threads dissecting or idolizing the person too much hate or overzealous loving

where is the medium ?

Right now, I'd say his major ego.

One time I was looking over some Prince pics while my brother was over. Who isn't a Prince fan, comes over and looks at the pics with me and says "Prince be thinkin' he's all that". And I looked at him and we just laughed cuz I think he's right.

viewaskew said:

Him sueing everyone at the drop of a hat.

I dislike.

Prince's attitude towards his fans/shelved product. It shows that he does not understand why people are fan of his music.

Prince's incapability to find a new amazing designer, like Laura LiPuma, that translate his music to a beautiful picture, design, to go along with the music.

Prince's total inaptitude towards the net and not using it to it's full potential, because his limited mind does not allow him to. And that totally incorporates my first two points; Prince will never deliver anymore becuz of his limitations; his looped composing-production, him locking himself inside of first Paisley Park (the building, not the prospected togetherness as described int he amazing song witht the same name) where he let his aptness to adept wither and die and his single-minded religion, that totally fits his current state; just a shadow of the otherwordly powers invoker he used to be.

HamsterHuey said:

The stupid shit he's been doing lately.....lawsuits,change in music, he's pigheaded ass, and etc.

"Hate" is too strong a word. I don't hate anything. I dislike behavior.
Therefore, I dislike his wearing foot wear that look like women's shoes.
He needs to use better judgement.
I dislike his malnourished look. He needs to add a few pounds.
I dislike his control freak ways, which cause problems here.

xplnyrslf said:

very strange, why does evryone think lately that prince looks like he dont eat properly, i am very confused, IMO he has never looked better

Whitnail said:

He LOOKS OK. He looked healthier when he was younger.
Plus, I'm not "everyone".
I'm 4'10", run, weight train, swim, and probably weigh more than he does.

I hate the way he treats humans
I HATE PRINCE!

I don't hate anything about him. I just don't agree with some of his latest actions.

His arrogance, he releases decent music when it pleases him and he thinks he can treat his fans like dirt. i think he has to realise the Michael Jackson hermit like behaviour is no longer cool.

wildgoldenhoney said:

This may come as a shock to you, but there's not room enough on Prince's ass for that many people to kiss it. Especially, since there are some of you that seem to spend all your time doing just that. This site welcomes differing opinions (unlike any "official" Prince Web site), which is (or at least should be) a refreshing thing.

If the reality that a lot of people have become disenchanted with the route Prince has taken in recent years is too much for you, maybe life in general is as well...sucks to be you.

And Prince is welcome to try & defend himself here anytime. I'm sure loads of people would appreciate his efforts.

i hate his setlists since the the jam of the year tour, not enough current music in the shows as opposed 2 safe songs.

i hated the superbowl per4mance

i hate that he released the majority of songs on planet earth instead of vault gems like in a large room with no lights but instead got stupid ass songs like lion of judah

i hate how he announces a project but doesn't c it all the way through

i hate how his dvd's don't conatin the full show and from one venue thank

viewaskew said:

Great!

What does any of this have to do with me?

I have no beef with you nor Prince!
