Open Letter To Prince ... "Dear Prince..." Dear Prince,
I have been a fan for many years. In the category of Prince Fanatics, I am a Class 5. )(Ten being the most obsessed, owning vinyl albums, having attended many many concerts, know-it-alls, naming children after you, etc) I may be a class 6 or 7 as I have been you for Halloween twice and I regularly do karaoke of some of your jams.Those high notes are tough! I have recently been made aware of several alternate versions of some of my all-time favorites of some of your classic songs. I will not discuss here where I have heard these gems. I have also heard about an unreleased album from when you decided to change your name back to Prince around 1998 (?) I am sure a Class 8, 9, or 10 will berate me for not knowing exactly when, and probably for this whole letter to you. I have heard cuts from this album, also. GOOD STUFF. I was wondering if you could commercially release all of this stuff for your adoring fans very soon, preferably on Compact Disc format, but MP3 would be fine, too. Thank You. Lou, Rochester, NY PS I hope my letter conforms to all Prince.org rules. | |

I love these 'open letters' to Prince, they are f***ing hilarious.
One thing is for sure ZeroZero, you can give yourself a 'class 10' for being if you think that Prince is gonna do as you ask. | |

Owning Prince albums on vinyl doesn't make you a fanatic. It just means you're old. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |
