Did you tonk him in highschool or what ... ?

He was in the same sex-ed class as me. I was an instant fan as soon as I saw him fuck the teacher.

If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

1983. Die hard in 1984, the first time I saw the When Doves Cry video. That was it for me. I was 11

Intrigued from the moment I first held the single disc 1999 album sleeve in my hand and questioning my sexuality for the first time, astounded after hearing the album, and then taken completely by the controversy album after checking his back catalogue. Come to think of it... looooong time since experiencing such feelings... sad True, greater things were yet to come in 1983, but to witness the rise and fall... neutral

i was introduced to prince around the time of the 1999 release, and was about in the 4th grade that time...have been into his grooves ever since then, though i have missed out on a lot of the stuff that was officially released online.

since I saw him on the Brits in 1985..but the first album I bought was 1999 because it had the most songs on it.

So that would be 25 years.

Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
woot!

When Purple Rain came out here in Austria 1984 or 1985 I was hooked and for me there was nobody better than Prince for about ten years. Sometime in the later 90s he lost me, but this year he pulled me back in with his brilliant live performance in Vienna ... and now I intend to stay on for the ride, come what may!! biggrin

oh, Hi there, and welcome back to the "club" smile

this joint needs more Austrian orgers anyway, and the Vioenna concert pretty much will help on that highfive

not sure..

I liked "I Wanna be your Lover" -- but I was just a little girl then....

didn't get hooked until my best friend made me some tapes in HS of her older brother's Prince record collection in the mid '80s wink

my dad and an uncle played guitar, and I was a Jimi Hendrix fan.. Prince was the next guitar god for me to love (and he was cute...) wink lol
