Always knowing that Prince needs a friend to share his heart with on an intimate level.

Prince's beautiful music for everyone can maybe get an artist exhausted...I cannot help but want to be Prince's rejuvenation asPrince has been my inspiration.

Prince's beautiful spirit will grow and leaf like the Oak Tree...and I want to care about every seed of birth within his new day.

Sometimes even a poet cannot find the words to say that Love just is. cool

I ask myself this all the time,
I try to figure out when I began to love Prince and whenever I decide on one thing or time in my life I think of another time, and it seems I can't actually pinpoint one specific moment that it happened...at first I thought it was the Musicology Album, then I thought it was the Muppets episode, then I thought it was when I was really little and my mom had an Around the World in a Day Album that I couldn't be pulled away from, I was like 5 and it was the coolest thing I had ever seen.... I guess like my friend Tame says

Prince is always changing to something new and fresh. He doesn't stay stagnant and he likes variety. He is himself and he doesn't give a shit what anybody else thinks of him. You gotta have big balls to wear some ass out lace bottoms. He can sing deep alto and soprano as high as any woman. You never know what personality he will throw at us next. He talks in riddles and is very private to keep us guessing. He is a hopeless romantic.

I remember back in the day when his bodyguard used to carry his ass up on stage. Prince was batting his eyelashed like a true bitch! I'll NEVER forget it, and he was a live walking talking freak show onstage. It's been just great watching him bring good music and watching his weird appearances through the years!

For me it's his undeniable virtuosity, not in any one aspect of music-making, but the entire breadth of it. No matter how much Prince's tastes diverge from my own, he's established himself as a one-man musical phenomenon from initial inspiration around an idea to its final distribution to a global audience. I gotta give up some props for that.

Aside from him being:

fine as hell

someone with a dual personality (the whole good twin bad twin thing)

multi-talented and multi-skilled

a damn good song writer and composer

fashionably forward

vulnerable but masking it with a a tough and often disarming exterior

open to giving any ole attractive heffer a chance in the music biz


I really don't know. confused

The fact that he's not afraid to do what he wants whether we like it or not. And he's sexy. And his musicianship is off the chain.

He's the cutest little annoying talanted wonder of this world! He composes music and writes lyrics that can turn a rock into sparkling liquid. He has change my entire personality by being the keeper of the key, to open up the door to my most hidden inner vulnarable parts. He gives me pleasure beyond anything I've ever experienced before. The problem is that I'm not sure how to handle this "new open sensitive me" in the freaky, heartless, crazy, brutal world I'm stuck with. I wish I had a mansion somewhere, where I could hide and only surround me with people I trust and love, and always ride spacey limos and private jets when being in the need to move from point A to point B...and just watch the "ghetto" outside from the security of a suntoned carwindow...wink

He keeps producing really good music .... I know from his 80's stuff to 00's i'm not gonna like every track ... but i buy his CD's / Albums because there is always 2 or 3 classic tunes on every new bit of work...

That no artist can produce or even come close to making on album with 12 tracks he just that good.. biggrin

To be honest I've always truly heart 'd Prince-the man is great, but my appreciation for him has changed over the years. In the beginning I was in love with every thing Prince did or touched, but as I have grown older I have come to appreciate him as an old friend that I will never know. His music has comforted me in bad times, his shows have brought energy and excitement and of course his looks always please lol The man always brings some new music and I still get excited to go to the wreckastow lol and pick up a new Prince cd. No other musician makes me feel like that-no one wink .

It all started back in 1982 when I heard the opening of 1999 on the radio. I was completely blown away.

Probably all things that make him so unique and at the same time repulsive to some people - his style, his attitude, his falsetto love ,also the way he speaks (he just seems so wise and calm and respectful) etc.

Besides, I got tired of any artist that I would listen to constantly. With Prince that never happened. He always gives me more.
