You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

^ Lady Gaga, oh dear. eek

Cool with me ecstasy tastes are different,

but Lady Gaga #1 on my.... hate list.

Somehow I've managed to not hear Gaga yet. Guess I'm glad I'm not DJ'ing in the clubs anymore... biggrin

You'd be surprised if u gave her a chance and a listen.She's pretty cool, including her style, tastes, and music. She reminded meof Prince when I first heard her whole album out because of the difference from the status quo, sexiness, cleverness, and way of constantly evolving& changing. Check out Born This Way, pretty cool. Oh, and Judas video wink

Yes, at 19, I finally saw the Revolution, a legendary band. And I talked to Wendy!!! biggrin In addition to seeing Prince, I have now lived life. Thank you Purple People!!

It would be safe to say that if you are on a Prince Site; you have your answer. I love music from Bach to Queen, but Prince is and always will be #1.

I am living proof that it is not "safe to say" that. I love Prince, but he in not my #1. In fact, he doesn't crack my top 7. It seems to be an odd presumption that one only should only go to one fansite or music forum.

Not even sure what "answer" you've referring to. I was asking people what ELSE they listen to.

Lastly, if you go back through the thread, you'll notice there is no shortage of people who DON'T list Prince first.

you come off as rather abbrasive.....just sayin'
"not a fan" falloff yeah...ok

Yeah? I don't mean to. I haven't been the same since Howard started putting in three-day work weeks. At least Eric the Midget is kind of back. neutral

It's a bit annoying when people troll threads thinking they can answer for everyone. His second sentence would have been enough.

Sorry to be critical, but have you just arrived from 1993, Your choice is such a timewarp. No one except maybe Carlton Banks would own up to liking Spunilla Ice or O Town

So what!! He likes what he likes. Its not fair to criticize someone for what they like. Let him like Milli Vinnilli. No big deal. You shouldn't make this post and them criticize people for what they like. Then again, this is Prince fans. They do criticize everything and don't seem to be happy with anything so I guess its expected.

I am the OP, and I haven't criticized anyone's taste.

Although, I have gotten annoyed, when people criticize the premise of my post just to come here and say, "Prince is #1 and no one else! What are you even doing here? How dare you ask about other artists!"

Will and Ashley are talking about how to deal with a bully and Carlton comes in and sees Will about to mock punch Ashley

C "Whoa whats going on here"

W "Sorry she said she was a Vanilla Ice fan, and I couldn't hold back"

C "What are you talking about, everybody loves Vanilla Ice"

That episode, number 2 on the second series aired September 17 1991, so that shows you even 20 years ago people thought he was wack.

Unfortunately Blackie refuses to play that anymore

My 2nd favorite is Harder Faster from Live In The Raw, do they still play that?

Yes he has played that one from time to time but its not a regular song in the setlist. I think that the fact that Blackie (like Dave Mustaine) is a born again christian has something to do with it

1 - Prince

2 - Bee Gees

I've never given it enough thought to rank 5 others after that. Those are the only two I've collected the complete works of (among artists with enough releases where the complete works is a meaningful number of releases).

This smells like a 2nd rate psych experiment:

A total newbie decides to goto 'the' Prince website and see how many members he/she can guilt-trick into downplaying their 'Princely admiration', in the name of open-ness and musical diversity!

The reason that we spend a significant amount of time out of our lives on this site is because, right or wrong, we feel that Prince is the Cream. Uniquely special. One-of-a-kind.

Imagine (pun intended) if I were to goto an MJ site and ask, 'where does Michael Jackson fit in your top 7 artists?'

C'mon son! wink

seeing you make absurd statements about prince's guitar and mi skills, engaging in guesswork instead of proving your claims, and balantly lying shows you are the biggest troll on this forum.
