Well maybe they're not really admissions or even confessions but...

What did you think when you heard Prince say:
1. He had epilepsy as a child and made it go away
2. Willed Mayte to him
3. Had another personality inside him whose gender was unknown
4. Was not a fan of male vocals
5. Believed somebody lied about how somebody died referring to Jesus and the cross.

What are some other Prince statements that had you going or You believe everything he says?

Hey if it worked for him, why shouldn't I believe him, can you prove otherwise??

I'm not being mean, but let's just examine these ideas.

1. He MADE it go away? Unlikely. It doesn't always last into adulthood. Sometimes it does. That's a genetic thing, not a magicalPrincepower thing. But it was big of him to admit something that was probably traumatic to him as a child.

2. You can't will anyone to yourself. She wasn't stupid, and saw the bank. HOWEVER, I also fully believe they loved each other fully, and were IN love. Ya just don't write songs like on Emancipation and NOT be in love.

3. That's a very Prince way of saying, "I'm complex." Well, welcome to normalville, Prince. We're all as complex as we are simpletons. Yes, he's into that whole bullshit about astrology, yet no Christian religion believes that, and the Bible speaks against it, even the JW bible. We've ALL got two sides, and a lot of time they are friends; sometimes not. No one is one dimensional by any means.

4. He, it's amazing how many men aren't, esp male singers. Rosie Gaines said she always listened to men singers, so it's a 50/50 argument on either side.

5. We've long covered Prince's Grahamesque theory about the cross, yet history belies anything he's said about a cross opposed to an upright stake or pole. BOTH are correct. Crucifixions were posed many ways, both in a cross, and a pole. Some people were truly impaled through the body, in just the right spot so they'd not die right away, yet suffer a long agonizing death, gasping for air and bleeding out. The JW's have long reinterpreted major issues like this simply for the sake of being different. The only one to lie about how Christ died was Prince, on national television, over and over.

His biggest, an dmost "real" admission is probably "Papa". Nothing else has reached that deep into his life than that song, and we know he's touched a lot of subjects.

I loved it when he said the he thought He and Mayte were each other in another life.

What's better than that is when I read the old Vanity Playboy and Vanity said Prince said the same thing to her. I guess that spiel works for somewhat androgynous people.

Similar thought on your comments, but about number 5...
JW believe Christ died on a "stauros" which means an upright stake or pole..
and not a cross.

DesireeNevermind said:

1) "Yeah of course you did" sarcasm if course

2) "and the money/fameand Maytes dads audition tape helped too"

3) " stop talking"

4) " stop talking"

5) "were you there,do u believe erveruthing Larry tells you....youcant trust a man with a moustache like that"


And I'll add 2 of my own about his ridiculous Chemitrail rant on Tavis....." and I thought you were intelligent...congratulations you've reverted 50 years toa black on White conspiracy theory"

and on his TRC comparisons of Slavery and the Holocaust andqhich one was better - " you C*nt"


Not some of his finest moments to choose from

How did Mayte get on with you?

She's filthy isn't she

KeithyT said:

that comment was rude.... Edited myself

to these posts....better responses/analyses than I'd expected. you guys are on it today!

DesireeNevermind said:

1. As explained by a previous poster, he doesn't remember it. But I had mild epilepsy as a child which I just outgrew. So his Mom probably remembers the "angel" explanation and it's nice for him to hear that back from her when he himself doesn't remember, which is probably why he mentions it in that interview.

2. Mind power is a strong tool. Positivity and desire can draw good things to you, same as negativity.When you fear something you bring it closer.

3. That's quite a strange one or at least the way it's put. I think we all sometimes think gee "was that really me" we can all be schitzophrenic to a degree as we grow and develop our personalites. About it not having a gender though, that I can't fathom ?

4. male vocals. Hmmmh Well there are some gorgeous male vocals out there, but I suppose in his songs, women's voices are softer sometimes and sound more caring. But I again don't manage to fathom this one out. Coz male vocals can be just as nice as female, if they're good of course!

5. Never heard about that one so can't comment as I don't know the context. It would also raise my eyebrow though.

One thing I read here but I cannot find the thread back, it was a scanned article from some time back of an interview and according to the article, Prince said "the internet was demonic!"

That one had me sit up and read again to check if I was reading correctly! If anyone knows which one I'm talking about, please could you post the link to that thread, thanks.

Finally, no I don't believe everything, "anyone" says.

I want you to explain. You know who your haters are...fuck them putas


my bad...

how do you interpret Prince's statements as listed above? What is your insight into what may be his truth or something else?

Dayclear said:

I'm going with this

BobGeorge909 said:

Iactually remember vanity in some interview said that she and prince actually physically look alikeLOLOLO.


As far as prince not liking male singers prince has said in the past that he feels more comfortable singing in falsetto than in his lower range voice so maybe he had hang ups on male singing voices which are typically deeper than falsetto.


Yes u can will some one to u.I wish he could have went into more detail about his version of "willed." A person can pray everyday and ask God to send some one to him or her that he or she can love and share their life with.

Ipersoanlly dont see a difference between a cross and a pole.They are both stuck in the ground and they are both verticalpositions( from the bottom to the top). I don't think the JW's and christians should make a big fuss over how Jesus was crucified.As long as we all agree he was crucified for our sins.

Iresepect princes theories on slavery and the holocaust.They were both evil ill acts done towards a nation/ ethnic groups of people. They both share similarities yet they were different. In my opinion one is no more worser than the other they were both horrible acts.

JayJai said:

Yes, I know. What I'm saying is that I don't get why they place so much emphasis on that particular detail. For example, if he had been hung or beheaded would his ministry have been less noteworthy?

KeithyT said:

NOT Mayte, you ninny!

Yeah, I willed a guy to me before. I fell in love with him the moment I saw him. then after 6 months he got on my damn nerves so bad, I willed his ass out of my life forever!

Dayclear said:

LMFAO...that's funny

#1- Attention
#2- Just wanted that young ass
#3- Contraversy
#4- Hmm...Possibly, especially taking his first 2 albums into consideration
#5- GET AWAY FROM LARRY!

Another I liked was when he supposedly whispered to Mayte to say his reason for changing his name was because the "spirits" told him to. I thought, "Man, you are trying WAY TOO HARD to get attention." Id rather him had just admitted the truth, like he did at the press conference when he changed his name back to Prince.
