No. Larry wasted a lot of my time with his pathetic opening performances at the european NPS concerts in 1998.

Well, don't forget to wave your "$" sign in the air (dolla! dolla!) like you just don't care to remind yourself how lucky you are to have a job right now. (I have too much time on my hands today )

I'm very fortunate cause my temp job became my permanent job a couple of weeks ago so a brother is as grateful as can be. I bring that up because it's for these reasons why I'm not bitching about this song and whether it's been leaked or not. I got too much to be grateful for to let this stress me so I'll wave my "$" sign and any other sign I can find cause I'm happy, I really am.

Not only that.. he was dabbling with Larry's shit back in 98. He might not have officially came out as a JW, but none the less he was following suite with larrys behavior..

purplecam said:

I'm laughing because you're right. Money and sex..quite a mixture don't you think? The two most talked about things in America...people are either b*tching because they don't get enough or have too much of it....

You ain't ever lie about that!

purplecam said:

I hear ya...well, let me slap you a because I am blessed and thankful also, that I got a promotion and increase in pay this year, and have been at my job for a number of years with a comfortable salary, but nothing's wrong with making more money.(dolla! dolla! ch-ching! ). So I guess we can wave our "$" dollar signs in the air and be thankful.

I think when Prince plays "$" live at the next concert, we should pull some dollars out of our pockets and wave it like we just don't care, I didn't say give it away now. shoo, people might try to hijack you for it, given the state of the economy, but in case some crazy person tries to pull it out of our hands, make sure you know some Tae Kwon Do or Ju Jitsu, in case someone behind you tries to take it, and you elbow them in the jaw or back flip them.

At first I thought you were going to say we need to pull our money out and "make it rain" like we were in the strip joint or something. I will be on Eyewitness News or CNN for sending some fool to the hospital if they try and snatch my money out of my hand. I'll try and go hood on them fools real quick!

Congratulation to you too for getting that promotion! We really have alot to be thankful for.

.... No not at all.

Anyway, there was a guy late last year that actually threw $10,000 into the crowd in Times Square in NYC, and "made it rain" money. I'm not kidding you, My son filmed that. I forgot the guys name, but no one in that crowd was pissed off at the guy for doing that. ...and they say New Yorkers aren't nice...well, he was $10,000 real nice that day when he put smiles on the face of the people who were lucky to be in the right place at the right time and get some of that money...$$$$$.dolla! dolla!

Wow. I would have been running like my life depended on it if I was at Times Square that day. Maybe I need to go down there more often.

Wall said:

Honestly, the only thing that is obvious is that Prince's "X-fans" continuously blame HIM for Anything and Everything that happens. It is not that Prince thinks that most of his fans are "easily fooled" it is that half of the things that are happening or have happened are not a direct result of Prince himself nor were they originated by Prince, yet they are continuously blamed on Prince by non or X-fans.
Oh, and these same X-fans (or whatever you would like to call yourselves), will always be the ones "cutting" on current Prince fans. They will be and are the ones continuously making accusations that current fans are "followers of dear leader" or "fam bots" or "Prince aplogist" when in reality, current fans are really just not believing all the bull that is coming from all kinds of varying sources.
You and others seem to have a one-track mind that does not move beyond insults.

purplecam said:

He actually did it again less than 2 weeks later. I think it was in either Washington Square Park or either in Union Square. Can't remember.

2elijah said:

I'm going to have to go to those places more often. You'll catch me at Union Square more than the other places, so maybe I can spot him then and get some bills paid!

purplecam said:

Well good luck with that. So back on the subject of this supposed leak...

You think Prince will "leak" the song "$" on his site before March ? ( Wait a minute.. that would be kind of ironic that a song titled "$" would be released for free.. )
[Edited 2/18/09 10:16am]

Thank you, Prince. For the best fucking tread ever

This is because good things happen to good people, and you are an absolute gem!

2elijah said:

It would be but nothing is normal when it comes to Prince

Dave1992 said:

I see you caught on! Alright now!!!!!

funkteer said:

Thank you so much Sis! I really appreciate that a lot.

What'd I miss? Has everyone heard the song by now?

purplecam said:

I think that "$" song leak question was a hint for us to get our money ready, for what's to come. So start saving a separate fund to buy some music when the site opens, we just never know what Prince has in store for fans...just never know.

2elijah said:

You know you made a great point there. I know I'm going to make sure my $'s right so I can see him as much as possible. It's a must fo sho!

I'm about to go to lunch but I'll be back to see where the next part of this saga goes! I'm just giddy with anticipation!!!!

purplecam said:

Me too.....besides I need to get some work done while I'm at work and make that..... later!

Dave1992 said:

So what's the big ta-doo this long ass thread is about. Only read a few posts and from what I got is:

1. Dr. Funkenberry (maybe via Prince or not) posted something on his blog about a leaked song.

2. Nobody can find said "leaked" song.

3. People are mad, annoyed, bitching, etc., about this.

Maybe it's just me but, ummm --
1) So.
2) So.
3) Par for the course.

You summed it up nicely. I think you need some .

Whether a fan of Madonna or not, she is rich because she has worked hard. We could say that she drew attntion to herself via sexually suggestive lyrics, dancing, shows, books, etc. but the same could be said for Prince. That's ok by me. She made her money by working. She is famous because people liked her music and supported it by trading their money for it. That cannot be said for Paris Hilton. She really might be famous only because she is rich and has slept with a bunch of men. I don't know but I can't really pinpoint what she has done outside of being a Hilton that would make her famous.
