When U think about Prince and his life.

When I think about Prince, as a fan I guess I feel kind of bad sometimes.
I try to imagine the difficulty of managing this growing career first of all and then I see that how accumulating the love of fans can be a hindrance in some respects.

The women for one thing, which includes me, wanting to be close to him, which always reminds me of the song, “Close to You,” by the Carpenters.
What starts out as love possibly turns into a bunch of girls around the globe crying because they aren’t laying in bed with their arms wrapped around Prince calling him husband.

For Prince’s sake, I have compassion that he cannot give personal love to each and every person that he loves for being around, and I believe that Prince’s fan base means him only love and support for the most part.

I think that most of us huddle in places like the org. to be close to Prince in hopes that he will help us get to a concert that we can’t afford to get to without his help unless he goes on tour. Touring seems rare for Prince as he gets older and we just wanna see Prince’s whole career through till those days are gone.

Overall, I can see how Prince’s career for him would be both Joy and Sorrow.~T.

And you are being rude.
C'mon. Show some respect for the way others see things.
Love for one another...right?

Hey...I'm looking through eyes of compassion for Prince. I'm sure that Jesus is peering down from the cloudz, focusing on me as a nutcase.

And by the way...when I say that Jesus is peering down from the cloudz...It doesn't mean that I don't actually comprehend his presence within me, and Jesus would like to mention that he was called crazy too.

I think that in his life - although there´s a world arround him - there´s much loneliness and misunderstanding

Awwe be nize

I think of how empty it is without me in it.

Boo Freaking Hoo.

I agree with Zucris. And He has worked effortlessly for 30 years with constant criticism. No matter how much he gives us there are always those that want more. The question being, how much can one person continue to give? It looks as though it is wearing on him. He was cautious to smile before but now he does not look happy. I do wish him 1. HEALTH, 2. happiness, 3. peace

Why would anyone feel bad or anxious for Prince?

The man has the luxury of living any kind of life he wants. He can do exactly as he pleases, when he pleases, with whomever he pleases. And if it wasn't working for him, I'm sure he'd change it.

That is if he has any love left for us freaks in here anymore
Now that really would be compassion

I hope so Genesia. Maybe performing/recording, etc. is what he knows so he continues no matter what.He has been doing it for so long I don't know if he can take a break. As for my concern, it's just my nature. Look at last years pics compared to this year. Lord knows he has every resource he needs but what if he doesn't think he needs any? Luxury can't buy you peace of mind. I would love to see him up to his "normal" weight. Just my thoughts.

zucris said:

I think so too. And I also believe that Prince gets more hugs of understanding than even he may realize behind some of the criticism. Prince is loved.

Genesia said:

Becasue when you have been a fan for years, compassion comes with it. We all long for success and that success comes with a lot of responsibility and pressure.

I feel bad because I wanna keep banging on his hearts door until I can hug him in person.

Tame said:

your first sentence sounds sincere.

your second just scary.

Tame said:

I'm interested....

so you meet Prince give him a hug
(and the hug is to the point of You yourself actually
saying "o.k. you can let go now Prince" you say it again..
"Prince you can let go")
and he says ok..... cya Tame thanks for the hug it was good.

Then what happens?

Leave Tame alone!
She's not going to hurt Prince with all her love for him. It's not like she is stalking him or trying to force herself on him in any kind of way.
And I am pretty sure she is aware that the odds of hugging him or being with him are slim to none.
There is nothing wrong with daydreaming or loving somebody even if that somebody can't love you back.
Love has no boundries and I'm sure that many girls/women feel like Tame, but are not brave enough to admit it, because they know that some people here would make fun of them.

she sure sounds like she is not completely in touch with reality!

I'm sorry but this is one of the funniest threads I've read in here in a while.

It sure is Purplecam

LOl... Prince is VERY HAPPY and has a GREAT LIFE. Maybe his albums don't sell Millions all the time,but he's always basically touring and selling out places. Sure the Press can Misconstue his words or give him Hell sometimes,but that goes with the TERRITORY of being a STAR. I don't feel sorry for him or anything only that he has to have SECURITY AROUND him because of WACKY STALKERS and maybe he Can't be more PRIVATE that Everything gets into the NEWSPAPERS. I am sure that SOMETIMES PRINCE would like to do something a Bit Crazy or Wild and just Can't.

yeah a real sorrow.. I just saw a thread about his custom designed rims with his symbol on them..

trust me, his ass got enough time to think up stupid shit like that.. he is doin just fine

Tame said:

Nonsense. People who take their feelings for someone they don't even know to that level need to regain their grip on reality.

Some things are better kept to oneself.

Tame said:

Tame, I do feel you, honey, YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSE TO SAY THIS STUFF ALOUD? RIGHT?
