their are a few young fans here at the ORG, at lest 4 inculding me, painislove,rubym and Spookymuffin
but there could be more!! but will us young people ever see prince be as big as he was in the 80's?

No one can bet Prince at originality, all of hes song have a different feel to them!! but will us young fans ever see him on top of the charts? will he ever make the biggest comeback in history and become one of the biggest black artists again?

i have always dreamed of prince being one of the biggest black artists again, and every one listening to his music, and dressing like him again lol, and every one stop taking the p**s out of he size and wot he wears and cause he change hes name to , and maybe people could see tht he is an amazing performer and one and if not the best live artsit this world has ever seen!!

well we see PRINCE on top again?

Am I considered old at 17 then Andy?

And to answer your question...no I doubt we will see Prince on top again.
I feel sorry that i've missed him at his peak in the 80's.
Just wish I was a bit older sometimes.

It was a party.

He was definitley a sight and sound not to be missed at his peak!! Glad to be old enough to know his music from the get go. I'm always surprised and happy to hear of teeny-boppers nowadays who like Prince.

To answer your question, maybe...but not in the same genre that he was back in the day.

i know i was to young in the 80's, but this is wot i love about prince, so many singles always have 1 time at their peak, but prince has has been at his peak so many times, and i cant think of another artist who has aswell, apart from elvis!!

now come on... how about michael jackson? madonna - she is still peaking the top charts!

But the 80-ies... it was one big party from 1982/3 - 1987/8

madonna has never been has good as she was in the 80's, she doesn't have IT now!!
MJ is still pulling of good performances tho!!

Yep, unfortunately I was too young to remember, too, but I love Prince and Michael and Madonna and all and I think they're awesome.

I wish I was older too...




Maybe I can go back in time and convice my parents to have me in 75 instead of 85. I'd miss the earlier records, but he'd still be pretty big by the time I hit record-buying age!

I got in2 him a bit around Diamonds & Pearls so I remember the tail end of his big thing. But I think Prince, as much as I really dig him, is gonna B 1 of those peeople that every1 says, "Yeah but U shoulda seen him back when..." like they did with james Brown and U2. He's still a great per4mer and he still puts out quality stuff but his time on top has come and gone.

aw u 4got me


i am (an will reveal...)

officially 13,



but i sincerely doubt we'll have a party like '84
(i dunno my dad told me this :p )

there, there.

I was forgotten too.

To be honest, I could only ever see Prince topping the charts by releasing a single with a "big name" artist. Something like a remix by a famous DJ or 'Britney vs. Prince'.

Actually, another possibily is to do a soundtrack song or a song used in a popular advert...

JudasSmile said:

please god don't let this happen.

i just wish and i think sum of u will as well, tht he would just make the best single ever and prince was on top again!! why cant people just listen to his music first, before they call him names and s**t like tht, it really gets to me, when my friends called hes music s**t and they have only heard one song and not listened to the lyrics, i want prince to come back and to prove them wrong!!


im sorry hisroyalbadnessfan8485 i'll add u to thew list of prince young fans!!!

I don't think originality sells anymore. Look at the charts. The UK and US number ones this past year have been, mainly, absolute crud.

To get back on top, he'd have to appeal to the main record buyers, ie 14-yr old girls.

No, he will never be "as big" as he was in the 80's..

and u know what? Its okay.. if u like the music, thats what counts..

andykeen said:

Yeah, MJ is an excellent dancer currently

hahaha

It's unlikely Prince will top the charts again as he has stated he could give two craps about the charts. BUT, with his talents, it is definitely possible. He could pull a Santana one day and just blow everyone away with an amazing album.

He could always try snogging Britney on stage.

Or Larry.

well lets just hope one day he will be the big icon in black music again, instead of mj or 50 cent and all these shit singers and rappers coming through, i just wish prince was reading this and see's tht a boy e.g. me , and ever one else tht wants YOU back on the top of the charts, or just to see u live, which i haven't, but i just brought "lovesexy 1" (amazing prince, well done ), and i just found out tht its is the second half not the first even thought it says 1 on it lol.

let's hope my Generation will makes his music live forever!!
