It's hilarious... watching those who think Prince reached his expiration date 15 years ago... yet here they are still hanging around to eat and drink every bit of that rancid shit.

I hate Prince biggrin Only cause he screws the fans that actually support him and every venture he takes, whether good or bad. Honestly, ppl have opinions, whether you agree with them or not is the point, it's that you respect as one not blow if off as 'They hate Prince'.

i know where you're coming from but his prime was 20 years ago isn't it hard to better yourself 20 years on from your best, i mean who has bettered their best 20 years down the line, P's a different person now, back then he was young freaky and angry now he's middle aged, give him a break eh! i'm sure if he thought he could be better he would be.

cool



I get this because I am only three years younger than P; yet the old P would have never included those two "lotus" songs that he did on the lotusflow3r CD that were pure junk as far as I am concerned, they were below par for him - way below par and he should not have even bothered to record them in the first place never mind INCLUDE them on a 3 CD package. Lotusflow3r is my least favorite of the 19 releases that I own of his. The lyrics are sophmoric for a man that could write Little Red Corvette over 20 years ago. He's 51 not 81 and I think his brain is still half-way good. I feel like what ernest says is true, he doesn't live up to his own standard so to speak. Maybe he isn't the perfectionist he use to be.

To finish on a good note. Lotusflower has links to French newspapers Le monde, par example, for good reviews about the recent Lotus fueled concerts.

You would be right, wouldn't you!

Seriously, it would have been hard to find positive reviews in the French press of lotusboooooriiiiing.

They were positive about the shows though!
