The truth about this or any other of Prince's later relationships could be something that most people could never see or understand.
It is nothing that can be proven by doing "internet investigations". It is something that, as Prince said about Paisley Park, is "in your heart". Only when we stop complicating with "intelligence" what was already so simply understood on the day Prince died will we be able to "see" it. [Edited 12/3/16 6:44am] | |

But, it's also more than that, endiadj. Some, for a variety of reasons, cannot stomach the thought of Prince being in love with someone other than themselves, or one of his three accepted "great" loves: Denise and his two ex-wives, the M's. Plus, there is another BIG factor about Andy Allo that is driving some nearly insane on theOrg, but I'm not going to go there because it would explode this thread. I'll just say that it is the elephant in the "room." [Edited 12/2/16 15:06pm] [Edited 12/2/16 19:47pm] | |

What some of you seem incapable of understanding is that it is impossible to analyze the musical collaboration of P and AA without discussing their "Rock n Roll Love Affair." No matter what anyone thinks about it (or how folks feel about it) Andy Allo is the focus of Prince's last two albums, which are, not coincidentally, about love (and loving). The same is true for Andy's Superconductor: It is filled with love songs (about Prince). What is really, legit creepy is that some on this site seem on the verge of melting down because their historic collaboration is being discussed...and, if the view count on this thread is any indication, it is a wildly popular topic. .. I am really thankful to OF4S for posting the lyrics to "Superconductor" above. Hopefully, I can track down the lyrics to some of the other songs on AA's album, like "Nothing More," "Yellow Gold," and "Long Gone," along with "The Story of You and I," "When Stars Collide," and "The Calm." .. Lastly, luxegolightly, there is a reason they call Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and other such websites, "social media." It's because it is a form of media. And, these days it can be more reliable than the traditional news media because it is information that people willingly self-broadcast. Don't hate me because I'm pretty good at research. And, more importantly, don't hate Andy because Prince loved her. [Edited 12/2/16 15:18pm] [Edited 12/2/16 18:31pm] | |

Oh boy, now you've got me curious about the elephant...I don't think JH was a love interest either. I htink she inferred that there was something there. She may have read it wrong. I could see where AA may not return the affections..maybe she thought he was too old, too busy, too many other women or just wanted to leave her options open. [Edited 12/2/16 15:06pm] | |

Hi, AA1slot! Have you read the lyrics to Andy Allo's "Superconductor"? If not, I challenge you to read them and, then, tell me that she wasn't in love with Prince. Better still, have a listen to the Prince executive produced Superconductor album. Sadly, she was not in P's life at the end because, based on my research, he had pushed her away. It's very complicated. The only thing I can be certain of is this: P and AA were in love. Just listen to Art Official Age, HNRP2, and Superconductor. [Edited 12/2/16 15:21pm] | |

Hey there Fly. Yes, I've heard all three albums I wasn't disagreeing with you. I am one of those that think there was something else going on despite the naysayers. | |

Was just thinking about the lyrics posted on the other page...I always thought we'd have more time...just now struck me that maybe he was ill or that she wasn't expecting it to end when it did... maybe I am reading something into it as well Don't shoot me, orgers, was just thinking.

Your theory works for me. There is "something" about this photo that is rather tender and appears to mark an occasion. Though I thought he was the one that was long gone and not looking back since that was his pattern. If it was love, it is my hope that the/their story will be shared out in the open someday. [Edited 12/2/16 16:44pm] | |

I agree. I couldn't put my finger on what it was about the photo. Then, I noticed the ring on her finger, hidden in plain sight. I had missed it each of the dozens of times I had previously looked at the photo. It was pinkcashmere23 who suggested to me that it looks like an engagement/wedding photo. Speaking of whom, I sure miss pink!! I hope the haters didn't run her away for good. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
Yes, that looks to be her left hand that the ring is on,but you would think he would get her a new ring unless she really wanted that one. I wondered where Pink was. There is a P, Madonna and MJ dance party downtown (DC) tonite. Can't make it but the ones in the past have been very crowded almost too crowded to dance and VERY LOUD. Looking forward to her new album.

Too bad you have to miss the party, joy! .. I'm looking forward to her new album, too. She performed a snippet of the new song on her Facebook yesterday evening. It sounds like it is going to be epic. As well, she announced that her new album, largely acoustic, should be released in late March. Lastly, she sang a piece of "Time" that was sublime!!! She seems so excited about the new song and album. That was the happiest I have seen her look since P's passing. [Edited 12/2/16 17:21pm] | |

until i read the scientist poem i didn't believe they were an item- since then i do. the issue i take with this thread is that u and others are trying to make this 2yrs thing(which is typical of his MO) into a lifetime love affair when there is nothing to suggest that it was. as i said in one of my first posts- u think andy was an exception, i don't. it's both creepy and strange how you have labored to make their thing something it wasn't and seemingly for ur own satifaction. very concerned with the view count i've noticed. and yet u call other people trolls.
-- just like the melodrama of you last sentence(the bolded part) nobody said anything about hate except u. such hyberbole could only come from an overinvested fangurl. and it's that kind of writing that has taken up so much space on this thread NOT pics(which i requested) and lyrics which is what OF4S recommended. ur the one that keeps derailing the thread with ur own assumptions/fantasy of what happened btween these two people.
--
re that scientst poem: u seem to overlook those words which make clear that they were fucking and that he then did his usual and split to find someone else. funny how u skip right over that kinda language from her own mouth! but go on and keep thinking they were still mooning and swooning each other until the end. keep over looking his pattern of behavoir for 30yrs and how his relationship with AA fits into it perfectly. but ur in good company with ur fanfic weirdness. hell, robin is over on another thread saying that prince told her that vanity was not his main girl- susan was. still, there are countless people on this board and others who swear that vanity was his forever love just like u and ur andy bullshit.
--- i would like to repeat my request for more pics and lyrics and ask that u keep ur clap-trap to the minimum!

Why must you use such coarse language? .. For the record, if it makes any difference to you, "lifetime love affair" is Prince's term, not mine. Here is the relevant verse from "This is What it Feels Like." I posted a substantial portion of the song several pages back. And, just so you know, boo boo, I don't do requests. Okay?!? Don't get it twisted.

Here is the acoustic song that she performed live yesterday. Here are the lyrics that she posted on Twitter: 1. "I always thought we'd have more time / That our love would age just like fine wine" ... #songwriting #newsong 2. "You once said we'd be like ships in the night / I doubted you then but now it seems you were right" ... #songwriting #news Here is the lovely song performed live yesterday: https://m.youtube.com/wat...PEDreeyxpc Could this song be about Prince & Andy? | |

FINALLY!!! so i wasn't the only one trying to say this. No you weren't @wavesofbliss. This thread went left just as soon as the FANatics decided that anyone not fawning over this relationship is a hater. I like Andy's music with and without Prince and I wish her much success but this thread is just plain old crazy now and I'm trying to figure out how much crazy does it take to get it locked when it's basically the same two people trading theories and insults and hijacking the topic? So ok...P and Andy were in love...NEXT! You know a thread is over when even OF4S can't save it. [Edited 12/2/16 20:41pm] | |

It's too bad that you're so bothered by this thread, even though you apparently can't stop yourself from clicking the link. And, BTW: What makes someone a hater is not their opinion, it's the language and tone they use to convey it. | |

Here is a video consisting of a review of the Andy Allo track "Nothing More". The reviewer says that the song is based on Prince's "The Love We Make". Check out the review here: https://m.youtube.com/wat...GZJmabm_SA | |

Check out Andy getting funky in 2013. It's clear in this video that she learned quite a bit from Prince on how to perform a funk jam. Here it is: https://m.youtube.com/wat...xsrVyAqytc | |

To FlyOnTheWall: Yes they were in a relationship and loved each other very much. That’s pretty clear to see from the photos and the songs…Anyone who’s been paying attention to Prince over the last few years knows about him and Andy. The issue here is not even about Andy and Prince anymore, it’s about how it seems as if there is an over investment in being proven right, and it comes off as obsessive. It’s not normal. It’s like you’re her manager or publicist. It seems like you’re getting paid, or on the AlloEvolution payroll. You’re fighting harder for their relationship than even Prince and Andy themselves. Then you want to call everyone haters, or say that they are in denial. I’m not denying what is crystal clear. The love happened, but you are going beyond the call of duty about convincing everyone how deep and soulful and earth shattering it was. We GET it. We ALL like Andy here, and that’s why we’re on this thread. I especially came here to find out about interviews I might have missed out on in the past... So yes I will continue to “lurk” as you say, not because I can’t get enough of Andy, but because I do want to see how you will continue to flip out and snap on me and anyone who is not geeked up about Andy, and who disagrees with you. The view count is so high because people on the Org are scrolling down the topics("Prince won the AMA,awesome! Prince4ever CD out, check." and are wondering why in the hell an Andy Allo thread is 35 pages long in two weeks…she’s beautiful and bubbly and talented, I agree with that, but in Andy’s own words as of a couple of days ago, Prince said that they were like two ships passing in the night..sadly it wasn’t meant to be, and he moved on to other women. You say that Andy is the love of his life above Denise, Mayte, Manuella, and all the women he’s been linked to in the past and in the recent years(Judith,Deliah,Lala,ect) you dismiss them as nothing compared to Andy, and I get it, she’s your Fav, but if he was begging her back after he pushed her away as your theory states, then why would he continue to be seen with other women, and in essence keep hurting Andy, as opposed to trying to win her trust back by not even having the appearance of dealing with other ladies….He could have shut it all down, and Andy should have taken him back if that was the case. If Prince was headed to the alter as you say, and his illness stopped him, and he pushed Andy away...but then he begged for her back, and she wanted the ring, then why didn’t he agree to marriage if he desperately wanted her back even up until this past April? It seemed like he would be ecstatic to win her back and would love to get married, even if it was for a short while…This part is all speculation, and yes I did see the rings they were wearing. They didn’t make it to the alter, and Prince did what he wanted to do…it was both their losses at the end of the day, such as life... [Edited 12/5/16 6:57am] [Edited 12/5/16 6:59am] | |

That's an interesting take. I'm going to have to go back and listen to the two songs back-to-back to see if I can hear the similarities that this reviewer maintains are so obvious. Thanks for sharing. | |

I try and keep an open mind in all the threads I read or comment on.. Someone mentioned the Robin Power thread...it reminds of me of a 2AM infomercial for tarot readings/medium session and selling product on the side SMH. Really, like P is speaking from the grave. But its still active so ok....P had lots of loves/lusts and I don't think Denise was his forever love...but you got people that refuse to think otherwise...he died of a broken heart and now they are together forever....sounds like one of those romance novels as well as crap. But live and let live. People are going to think what they want. I dont know what happened between P and AA. It could have been anything. What harm has this thread done? It has honed what I like to hear AA sing. I've found some new performances to watch/listen to of both P and AA performing separately. Got to see some new photos. There hasn't been a whole lot of negativity or vitriol like some threads and what there was....thanks to OF4S...most of it was snipped. I didnt feel like I was getting the hard press. If I don't like a thread, I just don't return/comment. [Edited 12/3/16 2:49am] | |
