. yes well. that wasn't what i am referring to. how to put this discreetly? their legs aren't the only thing that goes stiff??? . see, *i* posted the dancing goat to make a pun and imply that prince was the greatest of all time at entertaining/dancing. . then you posted the fainting goat with the giant [...] and i was wondering exactly what you meant, if anything? about... that.

Oh dear, I'm afraid I didn't look that closely at the goat.., I wasn't implying anything...but people can make of it what they will... "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

that is the thing with him. He mastered whatever he set his hand to. Guitar and Ping pong! He was a determined man, a man who saw things through and worked until he got it.
Dedication like that in all he did. It's what made him exceptional. | |

BombFunk said: To me was the most complete artist and most gifted musician of all time. Really? Better musician than Bach? More naturally gifted than Mozart? Prince was amazing, but I don't think he's the best at anything. He was brilliant at everything, but not the best of anything. For example, he's a better all round act than MJ. He's a much better musician and was a great performer. But MJ, though lacking on certain aspects, was the greatest entertainer of all time, in my opinion. And no, I'm not trying to start a MJ vs Prince debate. Just giving an example. | |

PeteSilas said: I have said this 3 or 4 times on here, I compare him to boxer Sugar Ray Robinson who had everything in spades but he wasn't the best at any one thing, but he was so good at so many that for the last 50 years he's been regarded as the best "pound for pound" fighter ever, which means that if you could make all fighters one weight class, he'd be better than anyone. Prince was that, just so good at so many things that the cumulative effect is him being better than everyone else. Just put anyone up against him and there will be one or more things that they cannot do nearly as well. he was also just a freak of nature, a force of nature, he worked his ass off, harder than anyone, even james Brown. Elvis was prolific but Prince has so much music he "makes elvis look like a piker" in alan leeds' words. So, there were some people who could play guitar or sing better but that was maybe all they could do better because that's all they did. No one beats him when you add everything together. Now, if you argue different things like who was the most original or influential, that's a different arguement. Great answer. Articulated exactly what I was thinking.

We're not talking classical but let's say we were those guys can't or didn't sing dance produce and no telling how good they would be | |
