Semantics. An ass hanging out on stage is an ass hanging out on stage. Period.

That would be a good signature.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

I remember listening to the countdown on the radio in 1992 and the Host said Prince is the new King of the Countdown by being the first artist to have a top ten hit every year for 10 years straight...
i think it goes like this...
1982-1999
1983-Little red Corvette
1984-Lets Go crazy, Purple Rain, When Doves Cry
1985- Rasberry Beret
1986- Kiss
1987- U got the Look, Never take the Place of your man(i think)
1988- Alphabet St
1989- Batdance
1990- Thieves in the Temple
1991- Cream, Diamonds and Pearls
1992- 7

I may be wrong, but didnt The most beautiful Girl in the World make the top 10 in 1993?

Think again.

1999 was #1 on the Dance charts only, but was #1.
LRC was #1 nowhere.
Purple Rain was #2, not #1.
Raspberry was #2 in the US.. #1 no where.
U Got the Look nor ICNTTPOYM was #1. UGTL was #2 in the US
Alphabet St. was only #1 in Norway. #8 in the US
Thieves was #1 on the R&B charts only, but yes, #1 in the US
D&P was #1 on the R&B only.
7 was #1 no where. The highest it charted was #7.

First is a strange hard word because there is probably always some unknow/barely known person - lets say major artist.

- "First" black artist on mtv. Major artist you can see that was going to get a push. You can say he is the first black arist to have 2 music videos on mtv.

- "First" major known entertainer to sell exclusive product on the internet. People like to forget this - Warner Bros made fun of him for doing this - The Simpsons even did a skit having Prince as the center of the internet.


That's not quite true...it's been claimed that the Duran Duran single "Electric Barbarella" was the first commercial music download back in 97.




From Wikipedia:

"Telling Lies" is a single by David Bowie written in 1996 and in 1997 released for the album Earthling.

Three versions of "Telling Lies" were released on Bowie's official website beginning September 11, 1996 - one version was released for each of three weeks - constituting the first ever downloadable single by a major artist. According to issued press releases, over 300,000 people downloaded the original Internet-only release. Two months later, it was released as a single by BMG.

On all the documentaries I've seen on MJ they all say MJ paved the way for artists such as Prince on Mtv so I don't think he was the first here.

The first to get in touch with his feminine side perhaps?
