Favorite P quotes?

I just love that moment when Liz Jones innerviews prince for her book, when she asks him if he knows Tricky for he reminds her a lot of prince when he was young and prince doesn't know Tricky and she tells him something like "u oughta listen to his latest album, it's called Pre-Millenium Tension" and prince answers something like "Well, isn't it another way of saying "1999"?" lol lol lol

That was a brilliant answer if u ask me.

Any other (non-song) prince quote u dig?

From a 1990 Rolling Stones interview:
"I don't go to awards shows anymore," he says. "I'm not saying I'm better than anybody else. But you'll be sitting there at the Grammys, and U2 will beat you. And you say to yourself, 'Wait a minute. I can play that kind of music, too. I played La Crosse [Wisconsin] growing up, I know how to do that, you dig? But you will not do 'Housequake.'"

It is so true. And SOTT got robbed at the Grammys!

Such an ass. U2 gave a shoutout to P when they recieved the award and I'm sure they appreciate his music so much and respect him as an artist.

Oh c'mon it was fair enough: of course it's silly but c'mon, all artists feel that feeling of "shit! what I do is much better than what HE does and that idiot is the one getting all the praise" every once in a while. Most people will pretend they don't, P was honest enough to admit it. I think U2 was just an example of a particular time when he thought his album shoulda won, but the next year it would have been A-Ha, then Kylie Minogue, then Roxette, then MC Hammer, etc. and honestly if I was P I wouldn't bother going to contests where A-Ha or Roxette will beat me lol

U2's shoutout was so patronizing. Saying P was "more than a Song and Dance Man." Pleeze, they wish they could sing and dance. Overrated with a capital O.

I don't see how its patronizing. I see it as somewhat shaming the public for attempting to minimize him into something he isn't.

See their history and despite their capabilities, as well how their 50 summins from Ireland, I doubt they envy spinning disco balls and club bangers, spinning and twirling.

It was at one of his concerts in like 06 or something. He called people up to join him in dancing along to a song and said that. But dang nabbits I forgot which one it was. I saw it on YouTube before, of course, they snatched the footage off of the internet.

This one is interesting because life really isn't as solid as we think....some souls join another soul in body to make two later in life. could be more sometimes but I won't claim to be an expert here. Life is all about learning and being in school, loving God, and giving back.
