If you keep polluting every thread with this kind of verbal garbage I'm going to ask the mods to do something about it. This forum is about Prince and related topics and we could really do without your skewed opinions and preaching that have nothing to do with him. I'm starting to take offense at your posts here and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one ! Clean up your act - stop using these ridiculous "..." and try proper spelling for a change. Try writing some clear opinions and rational arguments instead of this mumbo jumbo you obviously like so much ! Little Sister I think it's funny that this is the comment that sent you over the edge; this is one of the most logical posts that mzkqueen03 has ever posted!!! She deffinately has her good days and her bad days; and this certainly wasn't one of her WORST days. I kinda liked this post. | |

I don't love the new Prince, but I do love his music. Always have and always will. I liked Prince better when he was younger, nastier and much more interesting. This new Prince is insincere IMO. He is a hypocite in some ways and I don't believe his JW religion is what he truly wants. I know this is just my opinion and I don't know the man personally, it's just a vibe I get. I do believe Prince then and now is a decent, caring man, but he has lost his edge the past 10 years. He is still one of the finest musicians around, but I don't care for some of the things he does these days. I believe that his religion has confused him and made him much less tolerant and more judgemental.
I'm just a long time fan of his music though - what do I really know | |

OldFriends4Sale said: exenn said: This man still makes music when there's no reason to anymore besides his love for making music. I will admit that I don't hear the same hunger I did in the eighties material, but isn't that in line with human nature? He's 51 years old. Purple Rain part two will never happen. I'd rather see what WILL happen as he continues to make new music. It doesn't take away from what he's done, not even a little.
I know people in their 70's and 80's who still hunger for love life new experiences, they come in the form of college students, coworks, parents aunts and uncles. I have an aunt that turned 69 this years and you'd swear she was just 25 at her curiosity of learning and hearing Why do people keep harping on Purple Rain pt2 will never happen, I don't think it's about that at all, especially when a large percentage of his fance are in love with either the 1999 era Parade era SOTT or Lovesexy era again like you said 'that hunger' and human experience adds a big difference to anyones music Absolutely - not saying his age is indicative of a diminished passion at all. My grandmother will be 89 in just a few weeks and she's still interested in the world around her and in great shape, surviving the loss of her husband (my grandfather) of nearly 60 years and keeping a great mental attitude towards everything she encounters. It's not meant as an ageist remark at all. I just think that, as a musician, he's settled into a groove that he's comfortable with and that's fine. I enjoy his current material, give or take a song here and there. | |

purplecam said: For me, it's not about loving the old Prince or the new Prince. I just love Prince period. Him and his music are like relatives in the family. Sure his views about things have changed but that's his business. He's still the same person who sang about a girl named "Nikki" back in 1984. Whether he's down with Jehovah or down with pussy, it doesn't matter. I will ALWAYS remain a Prince fan.
My thoughts EXACTLY ! | |

I Love his short hair cut and he looks so handsome in his suits. As we get older we mature and change. When we give ourselves to God we become a different person. Prince choose not to sing some of his songs from the past. Ephesians 4:29 say's "Let a rotten saying not proceed out of your mouth,but whatever saying is good for building up as the need may be,that it may impart what is favorable to the hearers." When I was younger i use to like the old Prince, but now that I'm more mature I love the new Prince more. Now express why you love the new Prince. please no negative comments.

I don't know if I necessarliy agree with the term "New Prince," he just evolved from the person he used to be, but underneath it all, it's still Prince. I love him because he is not afraid to be who is, athough there are some people who might not like it, To me, he seems more comfortable with himself than ever and is not trying to shock us to get our attention anymore. People change and they grow and by 51,most people know what works for them and what doesn't. [Edited 8/14/09 16:59pm] | |

as a young person getting into Prince, i absolutely LOVE his old stuff more than anything..
it was just a lot more raw, and i connect to it easy I like his new stuff.. just not as much. I mean heck it's the same man! His music is great to this day, loved the new cd. I can't believe how incredibly funky he can still be at such an age it's unbelieveable aside from that, i'm absolutely rejoicing that he has such an alledgedly good relationship with God "Not to sound cosmic, but I've made plans for the next 3,000 years," he says. "Before, it was only three days at a time." | |

jcurley said:[quote]My point here is that if Prince had not come to some conclusion by the age of 51 surely that would make him more of a freak and surely if he spent his life having the internal debates he used to wouldnt he have gone mad by now and lets be honest wouldnt it make him a bit juvenile?
...we'll call him Nate, if it's a boy... | |

What do you mean "More of a freak"????
Age does not determine when a person learns wizdom. Some learn early and some learn late. Some are Born enlightened and some die never finding enlightenment. [Edited 8/14/09 18:24pm] | |

Who or what is the 'new' Prince?

ernestsewell said: He's overtly religious.
He's preachy. He censors his music. He's hypocritical. He's a conspiracy theorist, spreading untruths. He's Prince. Is that negative? They're all true statements. There's a reason people like the younger Prince, pre 2000 or so. He's NOT all of those things above. If he was THAT guy making music today....eh, I can dream. ♥ Feeling Purple Rain...Don't hold on 2 the pain, hold on 2 the memories ♥
