Printable2elijah said: purplecam said: Everything you said is the truth. In the last couple of months, I've met a few people who are Prince fans and I've made it a point to tell them to NOT come to prince.org or HQ for that matter because of your first paragraph Dave. The same thing was happening to me when I first joined p.org in 99 but after a while I realized that I was big fan before the internet and I'm still a big fan with it. Plus I have to judge the music for myself not for what others here say, especially when you have people who haven't liked anything new in over 10 years. I am my own man with his music but the comments in the last year have been outrageous. I'm not trying to kiss Prince's ass but DAMN. And like I said before, there will be people here saying the music sucks or it's going to be Planet Earth 2 having never heard even one note from one song on the CD. I'm almost scared to see what will happen here when we get the official word on the new CD whenever it comes out. [Edited 12/15/08 9:57am] "Cam...who cares what other people say? When you go to the store or do a purchase download you don't come to this site to ask anyone if you should purchase new music from any artist or not. Go with your own instincts and what you like. You cannot stop criticism of an artist or his music. People will always criticize and will never like everything an artist puts out. There may be a few songs on a CD you may not like and some you love, and we know that's just the way it is, but if it's your choice to purchase music from an artist you enjoy, go for it. Once you hear the tracks, it will be up to you which tracks are your favorites. All artists take risks when putting out new music and most are fully aware that not all their fans or lovers of their music, will like every song they put out. If artists were afraid to take risks and put their music out in fear of criticism, then we'd get no music from them at all. So forget what others will think about it and if you feel you want to purchase it and check it out for yourself, despite what others think, then feel free to do so. [Edited 12/15/08 11:51am] I hear what you're saying and I put this into practice with all of my music.  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 | |

I spend much more time here, regardless. So who says it will be a CD? ; ) [Edited 12/15/08 10:25am] What would u do if it was vinyl only? I would be in heaven. I would listen 2 it the way all recorded music should be listened 2, other than live music... "He's a musician's musician..." |

Seriously, when that little devilish giggle pops up and then the guitar kicks in, i know that there must be a Prince "London, i've adopted a name that has no pronounciation.... is that cool with you?"

Do the dance of joy We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

L4OATheOriginal said: Dave1992 said: I agree only partly. It's because sometimes I feel like people either don't listen to his latest three albums properly before they judge them, because they were not released in the 80s, or they even judge them just because they weren't released alongside SOTT. Tastes differ, of course. But every person who understands music and knows something about playing instruments, writing songs, arranging and producing them, will tell you that Musicology, 3121 and Planet Earth is some good work. It is stupid to say "Prince can do no wrong, everything he does is holy and perfect", but It's just as stupid to say "His last three albums sucked major ass." without having a proper reason. i agree with everything u said ..except planet earth co-sign ... except planet earth | |

I am excited for some new Prince music and hoping this is really happening.
I know it's really not important to Prince to be topping the charts but I want Him to be Acknowledged and regain some Fame. When I told His dad that I was "a fan of his son's" back in 1998 His dad's retort was "That boy needs a lot more fans" I don't know I guess I feel bad for people who reject or refuse to "hear" his music and lyrics because He is a great wonder of our generation. Got a little off the subject,sorry But hey... AWESOME, new music to learn soon.....Love that Sh.. | |

If this new release sounds anything like "Controversy," then it should be a hit. I will put it out in the Universe that Prince has found a distributor for his new music with an old school vibe stamped all over it. It's time. | |
