What makes you a Prince fan?

As I became a member to Prince.org, I also Became aware of The many different taste we all have in music and the many different reason as to why we all like Prince. Unlike most artist/musicians today, Prince's music has no boundaries. It doesn't allinates anybody, because of sex,race,age or religion. It is just good music that makes you feel good and unites everyone together, regardless of nationality or creed. Prince music has always been positive and opened my eyes to alot of things I wouldn't have been able to see otherwise. I learned how to except real music and recognize a true musisican when I hear one and this is the reason why I became fan. To me it's not about How good he looks, me wanting to sleep with him or even hook up with him at that matter, it's just that I think and believe he is and will always be one of the greatest musicians of our time. He's been in the music business for over twenty yrs. We mind as face it, Prince will make some stuff that's going to suck, and some stuff that's going to rock your world, however. You must ask your self will you stop being a fan just, because he makes album with tunes and a sound your not familiar with?
I think this is the reason why prince is such a great musician, because regardless if he made something we thought sucked or not, he still made music, just becuase of the love he had for it, rather we understood or not. How many musicains do you think will take the chance on creating a new material just to see how it flys by with the audience. Not to many. That is why The music indutrsy sucks today, because there's not to many people willing to take the chance on creating something new and inventing. They would much rather except the fact of people narrow minds and continue to make meaningless music. So the question is for today

Why and What makes you a Prince fan/m ?

I'm waiting for 2the9's to say assless pants.

For me it's the wealth of consistently good music. And enough changes to keep things interesting.

I COULDN'T AGREE WITH YOU MORE DIGITALISA. PRINCE IS ONE OF A KIND. GOD BROKE THE MOLD AFTER HE MADE PRINCE. HIS STYLE, HIS LOOKS, HIS ACTING, HIS SONGWRITING, HIS ISTRUMENT ABILITIES AND OF COURSE HIS VOICE MAKE ME LOVE HIM MORE AND MORE EVERYDAY! THE MUSIC WORLD SUCKS RIGHT NOW CUZ WHEN YOU TURN ON THE T.V. EVERYONE HAS THE SAME VIBE. NO ONE ELSE IS LIKE PRINCE AND NO ONE WILL EVER BE LIKE PRINCE!

No seriously smile

I strongly agree with you DigitalLisa wink.

Back then I was a music ignorant, all I listened to was R&B & HIP/HOP and what else is plain ol' crap, but now I listen 2 E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G(Thanx 2 the brotha).

He opened my eyes or should I say,,,my ears wink

Great thread

I'm a fan because of Prince's incredible talent
to make good orginal music that makes you look
at the world in a different way.

His music is rooted in R&B,soul,funk,rock,and rap,
yet he can make it his own sound.

He has an incredible vocal range,and can play
numerous instruments.

Another thing that makes me a fan is that he's not
commercially popular anymore.I like that,it means
that people who listen to Prince music today are
in a majority and a real fans regardless of what he
produces.

I enjoy living vicariously through him... ever since I was 12 years old -- 20 years ago. Yeah, I do have my own life, but it's also fun to see what Prince is up to, and it doesn't hurt that he's an incredible songwriter and musician. As a songwriter myself, who better to follow? I do see a lot of myself in him... a connection in some ways, definitely spiritually and musically; though, I keep my sexuality much more private -- just between me and my girlfriends... and God. I'm nowhere near as fanatical as I used to be -- but I think I will always feel the need to see what he's doing from time to time. The human condition.

The fact Prince does it all and covers any style of music makes me a Prince fan.Infact there is hardly any music out there that stops me listening to him.He's a one man industry, i have hardly no time for anything except Prince's music.

why should i listen to anyone else's inferior music? Prince is the man, followed by Stevie and MJ, who i may sometimes listen to on an 'off day'.

not that i have many of them!

Yup nod I agree with everything you said about this topic. I got hook into being a Prince fan, because he writes the most of his songs. He is very dedicated with music come out with a album every year. He is very unique coming up with the prince and he created many other unique stuff.

What makes me a Prince fan? His talent, his originality and creativity and his style. I'm really a fan of Prince's work during the 80s decade. I can closely relate with the majority of the songs he was singing, bootlegs/outtakes and all. And after having read different biographies about him, I can relate 2 a lot of the things that was going as he was growing up. Outside of the music I feel that there r many things we have in common and because of that and what he was singing about I feel there r many things I can learn from him.

Around The World In A Day is still one of the very best Prince albums, no wonder he's playing The Ladder, Condition Of The Heart, Raspberry Beret and the America chords again these days. I know some time ago people called this a mistake in his career here on the org forum, well it made me a big fan back in the day. Bye;

You see, my mother always listened to Prince ever since I was born (maybe even before that) so I kinda followed her. So, if anything, Prince came to me & I never stopped listening. Hey, what can I say, she knows great music.

Agree with that comment totally, if it was not for his music, I don't think that I would as open minded, towards music, and life.
