The Music is Passionate.

I was thinking about Prince's position as a great entertainer and also as a ladies man. I was thinking about jealous emotions and the nature of people that are drawn to Prince for being so expressive.

Prince has really drawn people to him, and I was wondering if you think it is difficult on Prince psychologically to feel compassion for women that have fallen in love with him. The Music is Passionate.

Prince's music has touched people's hearts and souls and I know that it isn't Prince's responsibility to physically love all of the women that he has aroused passionately, yet I can see that He must contain an inner compassion for reaching out in that way.

Prince throws out love into a world, and hearts run after that love and the source from which it came.

Prince can make U laugh, make U sad, make U jealous, make U turn 2 God, make U feel sexy...I hope for Prince's sake that in my case as a girl and a fan, that when we love as people, we love in one direction unless it is a mutual committment of togetherness. What I am trying to say is that I have compassion for a man that has loved in a 360 degree circle outside of himself, and it must be hard to have that world come back at U saying..."Come here fella."

I don't think Prince feels any compassion for the women that have fallen in love with him, that use to be his goal. You know "Look but don't touch" Just buy my music.

I believe that Prince does have compassion, it's just that Prince would have to spend every day in the sack if He expected to satisfy all of the women that have gone purple banana's over him.

I'm sure it's flattering on one hand, yet on the other, impossible to treat.

Tame, i really don't think P is worth dedicating too much time and thought energy to. We are just his customers and he supplies us with product [as opposed to 'art' like he used to]. That's really as far as his relationship with us goes.

Gosh I feel so used now

and how about NO pix of fans in the 21 nights book as well!. Ain't that the ultimate kiss off, maybe we weren't beautiful enough!.

funkyhead said:

Thats weird why wouldnt he want pics of his fans?

LizaWoman08 said:

he doesn't like us, we are just a means to an end i.e. £$£$£$£$!. Just like the many musicians, colleagues , friends etc in his life. Just 1 half decent CD would make up for it though!!.

funkyhead said:

i wonder if he really get sick of his fans...I heard madonna does, but who knows

I've read in interviws that he's is, especially the ones that still want him to be the "Old" Prince, and perform the old explicit music. I don't blame him on that!

Dayclear said:

Does he perform any of his old nasty-ish type songs anymore...like Get Off and stuff? Or has he mellowed out at his concerts now? Ive never seen him in concert

funkyhead said:

Well, a heart goes where it wants to...When your love is a train, it's hard to stop it.

funkyhead said:

Ah Damn! That really hurts

Tame said:

No you have the ability to pick and choose where your heart goes and women (fans) like this are what frightens Prince the most, he's said so before in interviews.

Dayclear said:

Prince couldn't be afraid of me, He can only be afraid that if He falls into my heart, He's not coming out.

Tame said:

Prince u could always mPLOY me 4 this kinda work... It's a dirty job, but somebuddys gotta do it!

Tame said:

I think that it is difficult on Prince psychologically to feel compassion for women that have fallen into "infatuation" with him. "Love", a powerful word, is not the word for it, especially if time has not been spent cultivating it by getting to know someone on an intimate, personal level; and wanting some arousal "exhales" because one thinks that somebody is fine and sexy and because their "music is passionate" is really, just that.

No, I don't believe it is Prince's responsiblity to physically "lust" women aroused by some passion in his music either, anymore than it would be Denzel Washington's responsibility to fornicate with any and/or all of the women that fancy him, who have been aroused by some of his dramatic performances which may be bestowed upon his thespian prowess as passionate. (ex. Mississippi Masala) Many of these artists do take advantage of assisting fans in physically fulfilling their fantasies not because of any "inner passion" in doing them a favor, as much as it is that it plainly is a boost to their egos to be sought after in that manner in this world. Simply put, they are really using each other. But, any psychological difficulty in feeling compassion for women in this particular instance, would be a no brainer because Prince is smart enough to know that it really isn't tried and "true" love towards him (and vice versa)...

"Ladies men" of all walks of life, quite often feel obligated to say, "I love women! I want ta please em all!" Love? (wrong answer game show buzzer) Compassionately servicing women according to the topic at hand, certainly couldn't be constituted "love" in any direction. What it would be, is an erroneous, demeaning of one "aspect" of "The Four Aspects of Love", "Eros" (romantic attraction between the sexes). Prince instead should "contain an inner passion for reaching out" to cultivate some "Eros" (romantic attraction between the sexes) plus
"Storge'" (familial love), plus "Philia'" (affection in true friendship) which equates to Agape (Principled love) the highest form there is. Then by "one" (not 751 trillion women) he can be on the giving and receiving end of being aroused by the taste of some REAL "Passion Fruitage" Something to truly sing about...

Periwinkle, i like your insightful posts.

personally, i like to use "Philia" as my closing signature when i write to friends.

THE PASSION

Come (Come) closer (Closer)
Feel what U been dyin' 4 (Put your hand on my thigh)
(Higher and higher)
Don't be afraid, baby (Even in between)
Touch it and explode (Wherever U want, it's alright)
(I don't mind, cuz U so fine)
Understand, understand that I love U (U so sensual)
Ah, but more than that - I want U (When I first saw U on the dance floor,
honey)
(I just had 2, ooh)
Everybody always told me good things come 2 those who wait (Over and over)
(Desire, U and me)
But I've got so much on the menu (Pumpin' the electric intercourse)
I just can't, I just can't, I can't wait, baby (Ooh fantasy)
I can't wait, baby (Can we please do it? Let's do it by the mirror baby)
(So I can see what I wanna see)
I can wrap my legs all around U girl (Be what I want 2 be)
Cuz sugar, U know U're just the kind of lover (I wanna suck your every emotion)
That I've been lookin' 4 (Right straight outta your mind)
2night why don't we skip all the foreplay, mama (And then wrap my legs around U, mama)
And just get down here on the floor (And then slide down here, alright? Ooh please!)

CHORUS
(Everything U ever dreamed of)
(Do it all and so much more)

Dear, my, my (Ooh baby)
My dearest, my dearest
Oooh

Talk 2 me, pretty warm thang (Whisper)
Tell me when U come one time
Talk 2 me, pretty warm thing
It's alright, it's alright
Hold me tight, don't U stop 2night
Let's do it baby till the mornin' light
Talk 2 me, pretty warm thang
It's alright, it's alright

{repeat over CHORUS}

Baby (Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby)
Anything U ever dreamed of, baby, just ask me, I'll do, ooh
Anything at all
Spirits rise and spirits fall

Scandalous, (ooh) I'm talkin' 'bout U and me
Marvelous, baby, baby, can't U see?

Baby, baby, I love when U talk 2 me
Tell me what I wanna hear
Talk 2 me
So much I want 2 do with U honey, can't U see? (Scandalous)
So just talk 2 me, pretty warm thing (Marvelous)
Suck your electric ocean, sail your virgin sea
Baby, baby, baby, yeah don't U wanna be with me?
Everything U dreamed of
Shh, I will do.

LoyalAndTrue said:

Thanks a lot! and LoyalAndTrue-the ultimate way to be! (and oops! in my shout out in the other thread I called you "Love", but, I guess that's positive, too, huh?) I've used Philia that way, too and Agape!

PeriwinkleBleu said:

that's okay love, i don't mind.

MrBiGsTuFf said:

Loving Prince wouldn't be a job 4 me...It would be a way of life. A good way.

PeriwinkleBleu said:

Your paper is extremely high register, however I disagree. It is Prince's responsibility to Love me.

Tame said:

Uh huh..I went "Kathleen Battle", but, I know you still wanna me, don't cha?...Yeah, uh huuuh, I know... But, you know what? I'ma go ahead and agree to agree with your last statement! Like I said before, what I am all for is TRUE "LOVE"; If a woman/fan want ta be "Booty Call Belinda" or "Notch on his Belt Nikki" to Prince and he's in agreement (which would prove that he isn't celibate nor "ready to be with one women") heeey dem is dey draws, not mine!

But, for your sake, may the Prince of Celibacy uphold "his responsibility" to forever "love" and be of "one flesh" with you! And by the way, if you ever receive your opportunity to put on some "Slow Love" and wrap your arms around that man and share that first "Mary Sharon" style, cheek to cheek, slow dance with him...Tamera, please make sure you have that camera...because child "This Will Be" "the One I Wanna See"!

Periwinkle sir, The agrapee love is a private affair.
