Top 10 reasons to be a proud Prince fan...

Many Prince fans seem to struggle with whether its cool or not to be a Prince fan. I say that only cool people have THE CAPACITY to be his fans today. Here's a few reasons:

1) It often takes a level of sophistication to recognize greatness. This man's music and talent are often overlooked by the dumb masses who can't think or recognize genius for themselves.

2) U gotta be capable of unconditional love to embrace the man with all his quirks.

3) U gotta be able to focus on his good music and ignore the not so good. If u do so, u can pick out lots of great songs from just about any year in the past 25.

4) U gotta not give a shit about the majority's perception and say, "yes, I have what it takes to recognize greatness!".

5) U gotta be patient to often listen several times to his songs before u remove your resistance to the drastic new sound and start digging it.

6) U gotta be non-judgmental to accept his sexual and spiritual stances.

7) U gotta be compassionate and understanding to embrace his often paranoid and defensive attitudes.

8) U gotta be able to read between the lines to find in him a man of extreme honor and uncompromising integrity, a man of incredible passion and dedication who cares deeply about growing, creating, and becoming a better human being.

9) U gotta have the sensitivity to perceive his growth as a person thru all the twists and turns and apparent u-turns. The man lives a rich and intense life full of spiritual growth, experimentation and discovery. He's a real truth-seeker.

10) ...and last but not least, u gotta be funky to love something so funky!


Anyone in history who was ever truly great was often either ignored, persecuted, ridiculed or put to death. Rejoice and be proud, Prince fans. You're the shit.

Basically to truly appreciate and understand you just have to look with better eyes to see and listen with better ears to hear.

I have been and always will be proud to be a "fan" and grateful to be the age I am to have taken him on most of my journey through life.
In the distance a light shines and I know it is mine. Someday I will touch it because it calls me. It says cross the line, cross the line. I know everything is not always what it seems, so I pinch myself daily just in case it's a dream

Sick bag please ... this is one step from Messiah-like worship

I could write the same trite garbage about Hitler and his followers, for example? Anyone for the Nazi Propaganda Generation?

1) It often takes a level of sophistication to recognize greatness. Hitler's concepts are often overlooked by the dumb masses who can't think or recognize genius for themselves. [Subtext: if you believe in this, then you are entitled to proclaim yourself superior to others who don't.]

2) U gotta be capable of unconditional love to embrace the man with all his quirks. [Ignore the bits you don't agree with and consider yourself a forgiving soul rather than a blind dumbass - advance 2 places up the surperiority ladder]

3) U gotta be able to focus on Adolf's good ideas and ignore the not so good. If u do so, u can pick out lots of great ideas from just about any year in his politically active life.[That's point 2 again, I think]

4) U gotta not give a shit about the majority's perception and say, "yes, Heil Hitler, I have what it takes to recognize greatness!".[Don't forget, you're allowed to think that - you're not one of the dumb masses - you're part of a superior race]

5) U gotta be patient to often listen several times to his speeches before u remove your resistance to the drastic new sound and start digging it.[If at first you don't believe, keep telling yourself it's you that's wrong and not your idol]

6) U gotta be non-judgmental to accept his beliefs [despite the fact you were supposed to be capable of thinking for yourself under point (1) above, and you were supposed to ignore the 'not so good' under point (3) above!!].

7) U gotta be compassionate and understanding to embrace his often paranoid and defensive attitudes. Bless him, Hitler meant the best, I'm sure, in the long run. He was just never given time to see the work through.

8) U gotta be able to read between the lines to find in him a man of extreme honor and uncompromising integrity, a man of incredible passion and dedication who cares deeply about growing, creating, and becoming a better human being.[That's right - read between the lines - it's not that obvious at first glance. I found 'Mein Kampf' hard-going but you could tell he meant what he said].

9) U gotta have the sensitivity to perceive his growth as a person thru all the twists and turns and apparent u-turns. The man lives a rich and intense life full of spiritual growth, experimentation and discovery. He's a real truth-seeker.[Call yourself 'sensitive' and 'perceptive' too, if you believe in him - advance another two rungs]

10) ...and last but not least, u gotta be a fascist to love something so fascist!

[And remember, that means - according to this definition - that if people ignore or ridicule you for being a Nazi, you might be truly great too.]

Langbleu-I unreservedly co-sign everything U just said.
I mean what bullshit!
Prince is, was and always will be a very insecure guy who wishes he was a taller and didn't have such a big head in proportion 2 his body. Genius aside if you put his naked body next 2 mine in a line up 4 horny girls and they didn't know who he was they would trample over him 2 get 2 this 6ft1 hunk o' a man. woot!
I follow and believe in God not some has-been, make-up wearing idiot who hasn't released a good song in over 2-3 years and frankly is just there to keep me amused like my court jester-don't take Prince 2 seriously...damn evil.

Good post. I understand what u are saying. It seems some of of prince's so called fans have some great desire to compete with him. As large as Prince's ego is there are some are the org who seem to have bigger egos than him. These are the ones who seem to feel prince is there own personal human jukebox who must conform to whatever notion is going on in their heads at any particular moment. Why doesn't he play that song or release that album.

We have some here who feel he's a great genuis and feel priviledged to be able to share in that genuis. And then we have the nitwits that can't move past their own particular prince moment. And berate him for being an actual evolving human being. U can respect a person (prince) without worshipping them or believing they are flawless.

Some here can't even respect prince as a person or an artist. So we get some really nasty posts. I wonder if all great talents of the past had such a hostile fan base? I mean did Picasso have fans who castigated him for moving past his 'blue period'? Or wrapped themselves so much in his life that they were outraged by his actions? I find Prince's life and actions fasinating, but it in no way involves my own. I'm just an interested spectator no more, no less.

tricky99 - you summed that up perfectly. I wish everyone had the same perspective.

I'm no @ss-kisser but I'm certainly no naysayer. I can turn a blind eye to the oddball antics, name changes, etc., but - at the end of the day, as you said - I just feel priviledged to share in the genius. When I'm up, down, bored, whatever - there's always a Prince song for me. Add to that the sheer breadth of his musicianship. creativity and showmanship - what else DO you need?

Why is this statement ringing so true? thumbs up!
5) U gotta be patient to often listen several times to his songs before u remove your resistance to the drastic new sound and start digging it.
Hmmm... hmmm
6) U gotta be non-judgmental to accept his sexual and spiritual stances.
Most definetely :Nod:
7) U gotta be compassionate and understanding to embrace his often paranoid and defensive attitudes.
He's not paranoid!! hmph! Merely cautious... giggle
8) U gotta be able to read between the lines to find in him a man of extreme honor and uncompromising integrity, a man of incredible passion and dedication who cares deeply about growing, creating, and becoming a better human being.
love heart love heart love
9) U gotta have the sensitivity to perceive his growth as a person thru all the twists and turns and apparent u-turns. The man lives a rich and intense life full of spiritual growth, experimentation and discovery. He's a real truth-seeker.
Agreed nod

Hell yeah!! evil
The reason I bought Chaos n Disorder, NPSouls & NEWS even though I knew they would proably be shite is 2 look after my musical investments.
U C I reckon if I keep funding Prince as all those who buy his shit do then he may reward my purchases with a great album made not 4 himself but 4 everyone 2 enjoy-"Ur music makes sense 2 no one confuse -but Urself"
But this is not gonna happen-the boys on some personal trip that we all stupidly fund but are not invited 2 go on. evil

I can understand being on a trip like that as I am also a musician. I make all sorts of wierd shit that no one likes. but he is a COMMERCIAL artist.

Commerce revolves around pleasing your CUSTOMERS, not yourself.

That's why I am not a commercial artist. If I ever become one, I will have to bend a little and make that commercial CD, while making my own, self-pleasing, music for myself.

What he doesn't realize is that when you lose business, you lose money. he can claim to not care all he likes, because EVERYONE cares about money.

AAAHHH!!! You ASSHOLE! I have never cussed out anybody on the org before but I think you deserve it.

1. Showing his bare butt on stage was a 'not so good idea'. Trying to commit genocide is just a little bit more than a 'not so good idea'.

2. Sharing your ideals and hoping people can get with it is a lot different than trying to impose your ideals on people by force.

3. Messiah-like worship? Thinking somebody is really cool and you think you are really cool for thinking they are really cool is miles away from messiah-like worship. Could you exxagerate any more?

4. Ripping someone a new one just becuase they think Prince is fabulous, (not the Messiah, just talented and admirable) via comparisons to a devil is simply uncalled for and ridiculous. Are Oprah fans in a cult? Are Elvis fans? (well scratch that).

I think Marilyn Manson fans are crazy but I'm sure they would tell me I "just don't understand", which I don't and I don't want to. Some people would say I'm crazy for being a Prince fan and I say "you just don't understand" but what they don't understand is me and why his music speaks to me and they don't have to. That's why I come here because Prince fans DO understand.

But you do not.

Computer geeks think they are cool in their world but why would you go to their treehouse, knock on the door and tell them they are not and are idiots for thinking so. Why would you come to Prince fan site and tell someone that is proud to be a fan that all of his reasons are borderline psychotic. I mean really, why would you do that? Why?

It's just mean and nasty. What an asshole.
When it comes to funk, i am junkie

Why would you come to Prince fan site and tell someone that is proud to be a fan that all of his reasons are borderline psychotic. I mean really, why would you do that? Why?

It's just mean and nasty. What an asshole.


It's called freedom of speech...

Sucks, huh?

I think Marilyn Manson fans are crazy but I'm sure they would tell me I "just don't understand", which I don't and I don't want to. Some people would say I'm crazy for being a Prince fan and I say "you just don't understand" but what they don't understand is me and why his music speaks to me and they don't have to. That's why I come here because Prince fans DO understand.

Don't worry about them AdoreBang. Yeah freedom of speech can suck sometimes. This instance is a good example of that. It's called, 'I like getting a rise out of people, so I join a fan site and spew negative comments about the artist, just because I like to argue.'

Now really, examine this; whom doesn't have a life here...? confuse Nuff said.

Some here can't even respect prince as a person or an artist. So we get some really nasty posts.


Maybe he doesn't deserve respect. You think because he is Prince that he automatically deserves respect and admiration?

Hell yeah!! evil
The reason I bought Chaos n Disorder, NPSouls & NEWS even though I knew they would proably be shite is 2 look after my musical investments.
U C I reckon if I keep funding Prince as all those who buy his shit do then he may reward my purchases with a great album made not 4 himself but 4 everyone 2 enjoy-"Ur music makes sense 2 no one confuse -but Urself"
But this is not gonna happen-the boys on some personal trip that we all stupidly fund but are not invited 2 go on. evil


So why in the hell are you here? You talk about how crazy Prince is, yet here you are post after post, thread after thread, taking up the most 'PRINCE.org' space than any other orger the past few weeks. It's simple, if your so displeased and unsatisfied, why waste your valuable time at a website dedicated to the man?

You and your sort. You are merely a follower. Free thinkers like Juice and I are a threat to you, so you resort to silly comments on who has a life, etc..

Because we CAN be here. Like I said, freedom sucks, huh?


Man think about how obnoxious that sounds. To do mean things just cause you CAN. You CAN go bop your boss in the head with a keyboard but why would you? You CAN bully and intimidate kids smaller than you at school but why would you? You CAN do anything you want but why be evil and obnoxious if you don't have to.

If you care to explain I will listen cause I really want to know. My daddy used to fuck with people just to be doing something and I never understood why. My mother said obnoxious people are insecure. Need to bring others down to feel better about themselves. It that true in your case?

I was wondering when you were gonna try that pop psychology bullshit. Everything people do that you don't like is because they are insecure/angry/bitter/etc.

You read too many books.

Go out on a date or something.
