I do, however, expect great things from him yet. Oooh...why do you even bother coming here then? What a fucking weirdo you are to waste your time coming to a Prince web site? God, get a job you fucking commie...  Because I enjoy people like you. :LOL: Fear is the mind-killer. | |

So, get lost!  Go back to the Cato Institute!!!

My wife used to love Queensryche, then lost interest, then moved onto Mariah Carey, then lost interest. Tastes change as you go on in life. My love for Prince hasn't changed for the past 20 years: does that mean I haven't matured in 20 years?!? So whose music do you love now, KingSausage? Jesus Christ! from the (once) mighty QueensrYche 2 Mariah-freekin-Carey? She ok now?  | |

KingSausage said: BlurredEye said: I think King Sausage also had a point with "maybe it's just the anal audiophile in me..." line, cos I am kind of the same when it comes to listening to the old 80's mastered CDs. Is very hard to listen to them if you are a person who invests a lot of money into top end hi-fi equipment. Have to dig that vinyl out everytime!
Seriously...I'm listening to all sorts of SACD shit lately...it's hard to turn around and take the abuse of early CDs!!! Thanks for backing the point up...
< I really, really hope it isn't too "pathetic" for me to theorize about this. Maybe I should just quit my whining, right? Fuckers. It's been "how long?" since U even mentioned prince on the org, KS? What a shock, that all of a sudden U come out with these numerous threads/posts of ur thoughts on prince. ( which were NEVER really complimentary BTW ) U sound rather angry. I guess U REALLY NEEDED 2 vent about prince--and thats ok. Plus U got MOST of the people who feel the SAME way U do 2 vent as well. They just needed U 2 bring them out of the closet and stir them up, so to speak, & congregate together. Now we all know who the "real" prince admirers R & arent. However, I still feel that once ANYONE ( & U included ) is "into" prince, it's almost impossible 2 stop keepng up with him, as we know he is VERY addicting. Sure, we all get "bored" from time 2 time, or disagree with things he does or doesnt do, but most come back 4 more. He's just too "INTERESTING" a person, & musician 2 totally turn ones back on "4 good". Its like "I have 2 see what he's doing now, where he's at, did he change?, what is his new music like?, am I missing ANYTHING?" He just never leaves ones mind completely. I agree with others who have said U may need a break. During my recent divorce, I didnt play his music for months, BUT I still kept constant contact with my prince friends, concerts, prince.org, NPGMC, and attended some parties as well. I still kept up with "him" in THAT way & of course, I am BACK 2 enjoying his MUSIC as well...I also like 2 listen 2 other artists, and sometimes a bit more, but I never have, nor do I feel I ever will get sick & tired of him. He's too versatile, and U will also return, even if its only 2 check out whats hes doing. If U truly love music, IMHO, U got 2 love prince! May the BELLS ring 4 U even when ur not in love.   | |

Some interesting points...it IS addicting! Even though I don't listen to him much anymore, I still wonder what's going on every now and then. And I still get into musical chats with friends, etc. when I'm stunned they haven't heard ___ album and tell them they need to go buy it tomorrow! You're probably right; this is most likely just a phase. "Drop that stereo before I blow your Goddamn nuts off, asshole!"

My fandom peaked 20+ years ago. I'm older, got different priorities. His earlier music still makes me groove, though. I'm out of touch with the new material.

KingSausage said: I don't defend him any longer when people criticize him.
I don't either. In fact, I find myself preemptively saying that he's become truly eccentric, impossible to understand or predict. It makes me feel better to create a little distance there, lest my friends think I've lost it too. Was it the religious tilt?
For me, that has been the worst part. In my opinion, he lost his soul while simultaneously trying to save it. Ironic, if you ask me. And will I come back? What could make that happen? Remasters? A vault box set? Prince saying he was just kidding about "all that shit these last 8 years or so," and getting nasty again?
That would be a sensational start! "When they tell me 2 walk a straight line, I put on crooked shoes" | |

DavidEye said: This is a stretch,but I think one reason why many longtime fans are losing interest in Prince is simply because his old albums aren't being re-mastered.If his catalog was digitally remastered with bonus tracks,it would create alot of excitement about him again.It would remind many fans why they became fans in the first place.It would be like re-discovering these albums all over again.
No, it isn't a stretch at all. I've said the same thing for months now. There are many artists who get the remastering treatment that people end up rediscovering and re-buying their music. Generally it ends up helping said artist's back catalog to move units afterwards. An artist like Prince, who's 80s music still thrives on Old School and '80s radio stations would most definitely benefit. Unfortunately, we all know he shoots himself in the foot sometimes with business decisions, or in this case, a lack of a business decision. Seems he might not want WB to get their cut of the remastering pie since that infamous fallout. But it also seems that he doesn't realize it hurts him more than it does WB. But clearly this lack of action is the decision he's chosen to make, so far. I just hope he has a change of heart long before he's gone from this world so he can once again experience the fruits his catalog would bear from modern recording technology. His classic work deserves a rebirth, and he deserves to see it happen. £ [This message was edited Thu Aug 21 18:47:48 PDT 2003 by Supernova] This post not for the wimp contingent.

But when I was making the post I was thinking more in general terms, not necessarily just the folks here. Some orgers may not realize it, but Prince.org isn't where you find ALL the Prince fans at. There are many Prince fans who don't make it a habit of posting on Prince websites. This post not for the wimp contingent. All whiny wusses avert your eyes. | |

Nothing wrong with not liking Prince anymore. What I don't get is the people that don't like him anymore and are here complaining 24/7 and putting down the people who still do like him.
My passion for his music ebbs and flows, but whenever he performs here, I'm there. I've always said the best way to experience Prince, even at the height of his popularity, is live. I love all types of music and many different artists and groups. But looking back on what I had to go through to get to last year's Celebration, I can honestly say Prince is the only one I'd go to that much trouble for. It was worth it, but man, the hoops I had to jump through.
Anyway, you're certainly not alone in your feelings about Prince. But please don't be one of those people who's constantly on this site insulting the people who still do like him. | |

The reason why some people want to voice their opinions on Prince and his new direction even when they say they don't like him anymore is really they still like him but are very disappointed in his 'new direction' What is his new direction, 2 instrumentals that couldn't have taken much effort to produce on Prince's part. How many years has he been playing instruments?
Is News or Expectation a better production than any of his previous work? I'd rather listen to Chaos and Disorder over and over than listen to NEWS once. Then Prince gives an aftershow in LA, (I know he didn't have to, bless his heart), and doesn't say one word? Not even hello, Goodnite, kiss my ass, suckers?, nothing.Everyone's entittled to their opinion and his new direction of not speaking a word is crap and I don't like it and my guess some other people don't like it but won't say it. | |

I have less of an interest in Prince these days, but you know, it always came and went, in cycles. Prince has not done anything accessible since the lackluster Rave. His jazz oriented stuff is at times impresssive but one thing has been missing : FUN!
My take is : Prince tried to be "fun" in the nineties, increasingly aiming for hits, with little success. Having come to a dead end with Rave, he plunged into a rediscovery of music as art and now he's reaching the other extreme. Maybe it is necessary, like some kind of musical therapy... Will he ever rediscover sheer pop fun? Maybe... hopefully... In the meantime, I have the largest catalogue to explore if I want to. Being a Prince fan is often punitive, but one thing we do have is plenty of material to fall back on, and that will keep Prince in a special place for years to come. I just hope he will lighten up a bit in the next little while. | |

Your claiming to not like DeNiro's latest stuff is NO DIFFERENT than my thread! How dense...I wouldn't see anything wrong with you hopping on a DeNiro fan site and asking around if anyone else there has the same thoughts about his recent output, ESPECIALLY if you were chatting with a lot of people you've known for quite some time. If you're so big on deciding who should be here and who shouldn't I have a couple of suggestions -- 1) Become a moderator. 2) Get your own fucking site, or shut up. If you're apparently BLIND to all of the excellent comments posted so far on this thread, at least do us all the respect of not coming on here and ruining it with your trolling and flame-baiting.

You will keep coming back because you are addicted and simply too dumb to admit that. Why wouldn't you do so? You'd be free to create such a post. It's a Prince discussion site. Discussing such shit is what this site is for. Or do you claim otherwise? Perhaps YOU secretly developed this site, and are only know telling us all the requirements of posting. Riiight...Do us all some favors...don't flame me again (your "dumb" comment is a flame)...and quit ruining this thread. There's been some good discussion so far, and you're shitting all over it. "Drop that stereo before I blow your Goddamn nuts off, asshole!"

Here's a related post of mine from a different thread:
KingSausage said: StinkyWeaselTeats said: The moral of the story is..."If you don't like it, leave."
That's a flawed way of viewing things. What about all the fans that didn't like Graffiti Bridge and Diamonds & Perals, but later liked  ? Should they have just left to satisfy the likes of you, thus never hearing or anything that came after it?
What about the shitloads of people here who didn't care much for New Power Soul or Rave (either version), but LOVE TRC (people like me)? If they followed the flawed philosophy of "love it or leave it" as if this was some black & white issue, they would never have heard TRC. Or ONA. Or any future Prince albums that they might love. Basically, people need to stop claiming that they alone know want constitutes a "real" Prince fan or trying to tell other people to "love ___ album or get out of here." On top of everything else, the decision to have a person "exiled" is one reserved for the moderators. "Drop that stereo before I blow your Goddamn nuts off, asshole!"

Times and tastes change, KS. It's great that Prince has played an integral part in your life up to this point, but if you're ready to move on, you're ready to move on. Certainly, that can be a melancholy feeling, but at least you've appreciated the ride. | |
