[color=violet]I am definitely a fan..have been for almost 30 years, and still counting..never missed a concert,in what ever state I lived in. Love this man for life. Prince is definitely a friend in my head, his music is so deeply embedded in my senses that just the mention of anything regarding him or his music sends me into a tizzy. My friends can attest to this they know when it comes to Prince I don't play around,I have to be right there, whether he is on TV, Arenas, specials etc.,will not miss presentation by this oh so gifted and spiritual artist.When I was younger I would dance around in my apartment and pretend to be on stage with Prince, a member of his band, and dreamt and thought how fabulous it would be for him to pick me from the crowd to perform on stage with him..and quess what purple people..it happened at his Musicology Tour in Uniondale, NY..thats right he pointed me out and called me on stage. After that experience I knew that all things are possible through GOD. Who would have thought that would happen. I haven't been the same since.[/u] traceyc | |

Tame said: That isn't right to speak 4 me, because I made it clear that my feelings were one sided...
I said I wanted to marry Prince. I would never speak 4 Prince's feelings about something as serious as marriage. All I can say is that I wouldn't find Prince to be as smart as I used to if he doesn't want 2 marry me. I hope you can somehow meet/know him one day. And believe me, I'm not being sarcastic. I've never seen anyone as steadfast as you regarding serious, non-insane love for Prince as a person. I don't understand it, and I'm amazed at your devotion, but hey, you just might get your dream, who knows. "You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup...Now water can flow or it can crash.

But I didn't listen to P for 15 years after the mid 90s until last year--so, now I can say I'm a "fan" who loves P's music but can still stand back and be critical. So, if you are honest with yourself and the org community, would you say that you are a "fam," "fan," or "hater?" (Forget what other people call you!)
are you serious? | |

Fam = Fanatic. Scary girls who write poetry about how they are The One(TM), and scarier boys who think talking in creepy new-age vagueisms sprinkled with Princebonics makes them appear deep. Both may have converted to JW as early as 1998. Princebonics? What R U saying? R U speaking 4 Spooky Electric? U got 2 live 4 Don't kiss the beast, B superior at least. The purple rainbow children will live 2 C the dawn 1 day. Will U? And Tame, for the record it's baby not I Oh Lawd I'm a famnatic! "If you wanted to buy a Sam Cooke album, where would you go?" | |

Damn...what ever happened to just being a good old fan? Now we have to put all kinds of labels on it? Now u have to analise how dedicated u are as to how much of a fan or fam u are?? And if ure not a big enough "fan" the fams are allowed to slap u down and if u arent a big enoug fan, or have enough knowledge other fans and fams alike can attack u and make u feel like ure an idiot?
Why do I come here?? :eyeroll: PRINCE IS WATCHING U " When an Artist Creates, whatever they create belongs to society"

When I come to think of it I have no idea when P was talking about wanting to call his fans "fams". Could someone state the source, I'm really curious! | |

Fan. Love his music, don't really like him as a person. He's off his rocker. And I thought the cane would help stablize him... I still play pokemon. I play warcraft. And I'm awesome. | |

I think fan/fam are the same thing. It's all semantics. There are degrees to the level of fan/fam that's all. They are just words...the meaning of each is different for everybody. | |

Based on several definitions on this blog, I can not say that I am "fam" only because I do criticize his music on a regular basis; however, I do normally enjoy all of it - even the stuff you guys think stinks?! (I loved Chaos & Disorder - mad Prince is always good Prince!)
So I am a fan but I lean close to the "fam" edge, so to speak - lol. | |
