I sure as hell do.Life was so much easier when the little dude was swearing his ass off, sticking his microphone between his legs and giving us 'Head', and wanking his guitar!

JW this, JW that, 'The Cross' is 'The Christ' it's all too damn depressing.

Nahhh! I'll have him just the way he is, thanks!

a bit, yes...

"The little dude," has always had "religious talk," in his music (Controversy-Anna Stesia) and he might not be "sticking his microphone between his legs," but he is still singing things like using the "toy" to "bring yourself to joy..."

it's all part of "The Journey" with P.

I know that but the religious references came from within himself back then, they were his own take on religion.It was his vision alone.

now it isn't.

Prince is his own man with his own views.

He is free to make his own choices as we all are.

Ultimately, people need to understand that Prince is very talented, but also very human.

He does not exist for our amusement, nor should he feel restricted to the vision or image others hold of him.

Marrk said:

That's the most disturbing part. Prince has been hijacked!!

While I believe that Prince does not exist for our amusement and that he is free to do whatever he chooses, peace to his soul, I will mourn the old Prince until he returns.

Co-sign. He was much more of an entertainer back before EVERYTHING seemed to be about JW stuff. He seemed to be more into the music.

i do admire him and support prince's freedom to do what he wants. but sometimes, when i read TRC or listen to 'the christ' i do feel a bit like he's betraying his earlier self. and me, selfishly, i miss that old self

...he will continue 2 make us moan & scream & beg & plead & (2 many sexy words! ) bring us musical joy becuz he just got it like that w/ us... :cooL:

very much so...
the genius thing about prince back in the day was that he had one foot in the corpulant, and one foot in the spiritual, and blanced the two tremendously well. now it is nothing but spiritual, bordering on religious propaganda...

all the time...

my god, larry graham's here in the cockpit--no, he doesn't have a gun or any weapon...but he's taking his shoes off...

s o s

We all could use some of that nasty good stuff from him. I mean after all, he wouldn't have gotten to where he was if he hadn't been that way.

Thank you, thank you. I'm just telling it like it is.

some would say it hasn't yet.

I watch/and listen to my old videos/CD's of Prince thinking damn dude was nasty and it seems he cursed more and more when TDK joined his group...before he just had a nasty way with lyrics and every so often would use straight curse words...but it figures he would clean up his act and go in a religious direction which he has every right to do...it happens with a lot of folks as they get older...after losing a baby,and having a failed marriage I can see why one would want to consider changing their ways and beliefs...

I mourn the rational, more mature fans who aren't stuck in a time warp and don't expect a man almost 45 years old to parody himself by continuing to hump his bed on stage, and talk about fucking the taste out of Marsha's mouth.

'tisn't that, but the freedom that came along with all that, see...phuc all the petty props that came with, man.

i'm not mature....i'm only 22, i got years before i get my aarp discounts.....

When people use words like "dirty" and "nasty" to describe what they want from Prince, I have to beg to differ Dansa. And I'm not just referring to this thread.
