So, because he was gay, you started to look at him like a girl?

Right? GM is gay but Prince is definitely a bigger "girl."

^-

Well the cousins who told me that GM was gay are gay themselves (2men 1woman). When I asked them if Prince was gay, they told me no and later on in life I found out it to be true.

I've had posted on the org before..however there are more similarities than people here realise. Not just musically...

1. GM readily admits his fondness for Prince during his own Faith period, and has admitted recently (in the 2011 re-release of Faith) how much the album sounds like Prince in some areas.

2. Both had significant contractual arguements with their record companies in the early 90's

3. After bitter arguements with their record labels, both released their Freedom albums in 1996. (GM with Older and P with Emancipation. The last track on emancipation is the title track, and the last track on Older is Free...

4. Both of them in 1996 released covers of "I Can't Make You Love Me" (GM released a live version of this in 1996 on the Older Single EP)

5. Both artists have also had complete creative control of their output - with both men having "Written, Arranged and Produced by" on all their albums.

GM wrote "I can't make you love me" as far as I am aware...

No, he did not.

No, she recorded it first, but it was written by Mike Reid and Allen Shamblin.

Prince is a fancy lesbian.

When my cousins told me GM was gay, I was shattered as a female because well GM would never want a woman. Prince came along and help mend my broken heart especially when I heard him sing.

Well I recall at the time reviewers etc saying this song was a cover of a George Michael song.

Prince is a better than J.M. in my opinion. I only like 2 or 3 of J.M.'s songs(the songs from the 80's).

Those reviewers mislead you!

Why?

Both are very talented. I don't want to diminish either one, but I think of GM as the great race car driver, while Prince is the driver, the race car and the track.

Prince has the better image, better life, better talent, better fans and so on. Hair, clothes, body, face, smile, everything really. Almost like Prince had a fairy godmother to bless him.
