That's probably one of the reasons he has been so successful: you can't learn, grow and reach the top without falling/making mistakes. The key is to get up quickly. Just watch him: back on his feet in seconds. I bet that's what he has been doing figuratively too for real-life problems and setbacks. When Beyonce fell down like 12 stairs she got right back up and kept on twirling her hair like nothin' happened. oh i know! its horrible to laugh but damn girl pulled it off | |

Haystack said: I'm kind of enjoying the complete silence and non-presence right now. It reminds me of the pre-internet days when, despite having months of desperately waiting for a scrap of news; when it did come, it was far, far sweeter because we'd been starved so much of anything Princely.
We could be on the cusp of a really exciting time for Prince fans, I reckon. If it's true that he's turned his back on the internet, then that brings back my faith in the maverick that is Prince. He was among the early when it came to using the internet to bring the music to the fans, and now he's going left once more (when everyone else is going right) in completely blanking it. Surely the first major artist to do so since the internet became the norm? He's going against the grain. Gotta love him for it. I really like your way of thinking. Maybe something good is in horizon. God, I sure hope so.. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

12 December 1770
Milan So that you won't think I am sick - here are a few lines. You know what a chatterbox I am, but now I am working on my opera and my finges are aching from so much composing. One of our enemies has put it about that my opera will not be very good. Someone has even presented our prima donna with some new music to sing instead of mine. But God be praised, our leading lady has flatly refused and said that she prefers my music, which I have written specifikly to suit her voice. So we have won our first battle. [lmao] I have done nothing else, so I don't know any news and have nothing more to write. I remain Wolfgang whose fingers are tired, tired, tired from writing. To exercise your True Will, is the Perfect Freedom. | |

Where/when was that, do you remember? I saw her in Moscow last October, but she didn't miss a step. jasmine3121 said: Flo6 said: "He's fallen plenty a time..."

Awesome & hilarious:) Have you seen the film? It doesn't come close to these letters in terms of fun and insight into his mind.
"yes, but look at the kind of things that offend him!" Sure:) but a thick skin takes time to develop... celebrity is a tough status, despite appearances, even 200 years ago! "I am writing to you so that you do not think I am ill or have died." I love this:0 I wonder if Prince listens to Mozart... for inspiration maybe?.. Asked about future plans by a reporter, he mentioned doing something with flutes, something on a pastoral theme... I can't remember anything more concrete. whitewidow said: Flo6 said: A delight to read... I knew it was there somewhere:)
"Unfortunately I continue to be the target of mailicious lies and gossip - which has caused me much vexation, annoyance, worry and a troubled mind." That must sound familiar to Prince... yes, but look at the kind of things that offend him! LOL!! Utter outright Buffoonery! My greatest delight! and look here.. 11 July 1776 Salzburg Dearest best friend, I am writing to you so that you do not think I am ill or have died. [LOL]. Greetings from Salzburg - where great things are afoot. What has been happening you ask? Oh there is too much to tell - where to start? Well a donkey walked down an empty street ... a farmer bringing his cows to market slipped on some muck and banged his head ... and the Archbishop wiped his arse! [LOL] Oh much suck, yuck druck - beautiful muck muck, yuck yuck - ooh suck muck - ha ha! [LMAO] Oh no - now there is a terrible smell and I'm making a face. Funny, when I look out the window it seems to vanish [lol] but now I return to write to you it comes back like a burning in my nostrils! [lmao] Mama has just come in with some washing and said "Wolfgang! Did you just let one off?" Addio from this stinkhole your friend Wolfgang. and this is just brilliant..lol 7 January 1777 Salzburg I am wishing you a very happy New Year - and that your health may grow stronger and stronger every day - to the benefit and joy of loved ones and true friends - and to the annoyance and anger of your enemies! [LOL!] For New Year I composed a fun piece to be performed by four orchestras - which creates a delightful echo effect. But the musicians here are so undisciplined and I had such a terrible trouble with rehearsals - you would think that playing instruments and reading music were too much to ask of them. [LOL] Surely no one who regards themselves as a true composer can work under these circumstances [lmaooo] and still retain their honour! [LOLOL!] But it all turned out rather well in the end and the performance was a great success. Forgive the briefness of this letter, but I am running out of paper. [LOLOL] Now I must finish off or I will be writing on the envelope [idiot!!] - your friend Wolfgango Amadeo Mozart. and here: Of course my playing was a great success - but the audience were a total failure.

I guess Prince has to hide...I suppose that is what I would do...I think that coming out would possibly bring about too many questions...or too many I love u's...or something that would make him feel smothered or something...If we knew.
The other thing is...if he hides, he has an opportunity, to talk with different characters...we all talk to, and reply to...different people differently...and the topic...escorts the conversation, that is either light or deep. Sometimes we don't want to get into the bone...sometimes...a whole lotta talk about nothing...takes us away from all of the thinking...when our minds need 2 rest. "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |
