Lets Accept Prince for Prince!!!!!!!!

We know Prince is smart, sexy and all around a musical genius. My question is who got the same personality like Prince? Good: like helping people and their careers (meaning helping people at work) or bad: hurting people for your own gain (meaning it's okay to say things without any type of responsibility or changing people... not accepting people for themselves, because nobody can change who you are. (Remember when you care for someone you accept the good and bad) I tend to work on myself... cool Please I just want too know.. This is not out of hate for Prince. It like how can we judge others when we do the same. Can you see some of the changes in his music?
How he treats others?... I can.

You: "Lets Accept Prince for Prince!!!!!"

Me: "Been there. Done that. From 1978 - 2007. And in spite of himself, from 1997 to 2007, to be exact."

You: "We know Prince is smart, sexy and all around a musical genius. My question is who got the same personality like Prince?"

Me: Yes. The Prince I knew and loved was smart, sexy and an all around musical genius. To answer your question though...no one! I haven't seen that PRINCE in years! Except, of course...in my memories and by the good graces of wonderful people on the internet, in archival footage."

You: Good: like helping people and their careers (meaning helping people at work) or bad: hurting people for your own gain (meaning it's okay to say things without any type of responsibility or changing people... not accepting people for themselves, because nobody can change who you are. (Remember when you care for someone you accept the good and bad)

Me: I don't even feel like going there. It would just take much too much time. Use the search function.

You: I tend to work on myself... cool Please I just want too know.. This is not out of hate for Prince. It like how can we judge others when we do the same.

Me: Say what? confuse

You: Can you see some of the changes in his music?

Me: Of course, I can. Ray Charles could see it! Yet, he was blind and he's dead." hmm

You: How he treats others?... I can.

Me: So can I. However, when I look at things with a little mathematical perspective logic...I come up with a Least Common Demonator...my bad shrug...Denominator. Do you? hmmm
I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart.

I accept. i don't care about the unimportant things relating to Prince, I'm in it for the music only these days. He either gets at thumbs up or down from me.

That sums up the level of my fandom.

i don't think he'll change n e time soon, unless he has a major ephiphany.
i miss the days when his philosophy was something like:

"when everybody calls the truth by a different name, and the indifference between us remains the same"



p.s. i accept

It's about time someone said something like this. I've been thinking the same thing, but sort of thought it would fall on deaf ears. In our personal lives we (hopefully) cut people a lot of slack and accept them for who they are. And I personally know the "right" way to be, but no matter how hard I try, I still make mistakes. I know others who struggle with the same.

So yes, I accept.

If everyone would keep with the point of view that it is just music then we will all be just fine. In some cases it may go further then that. I accept the fact that Prince is a musical genius a JW and nothing else.

I'm not saying I know what everyone else feels, in my opinion I think most people still love him. Be it the man, the musician, or both. Many are just disappointed or turned off by his actions or changes in his life and music. Through the good and bad I'll always accept my favorite entertainer.

Guess what? Prince doesnt give a damn if you accept him or not. He never has. A black man who would get onstage in bikini underwear and heels with a blow wave in the early 80s and is still making great music 30 years after is not hardly sweating what anyone thinks or accepts.

Yes he does. We are Prince fans and that attitude has brought a riff between his fanbase. I know Prince doesn't feels like that. He said F.U to the record companies that was trying to control him. He knows where his bread and butter lies. So black, white and all other races are at this party. Brofie, you may accept Prince for who he is and that's great but have respect for the other fans. smile

Are we talking about Lotusflow3r.com because that's the only one the fans are mad at because it closed (the website). Thank You for posting you have a right to your opinion polkadotbliss.

NouveauDance it's not about Prince being "special" it's how we view ourselves.
So it's not Prince being a kid in class. Because we are in his class of his music and having a discussion on it. So don't take it that way cool

It would be nice to think that you guys apply these same principles to people you actually know and whose lives you affect on a daily basis. I'm sure Prince thanks you for your concern though. biggrin

Accept? I accept punching him in the face while Im humming Taking Care of Business!!! wall How you like that Prince? Im punching you in the face while Im humming B to the Fucking T to the O. If I meet Prince I got some things I want Prince to accept

1) Accept my fist to Prince's head (While BTO plays of course)

2) Accept a bottle upside the head

3) Accept a Flying Scissor Kick to the head (Do you see a theme here?)

4) Accept a Clothesline to the head

5) Accept Wailing on his head with a sock filled with Quarters

Yea, I accept Prince. I want to accept him too much,Dr Phil Sacrifice.
