Great music will always reign. Love Prince. I don't believe he has had plastic surgery. He never abused his body. He never drinks and never smokes and lives a very healthy lifestyle. That makes a huge difference.
this is Prince at his best. there is none other or will there be another, he can dance more then a couple of moves,play every instriment known to man, write his own music, sing his own music,act and put's own one of the best entertaining shows you can ever go see. also a producer of some of the best talent that graced the 80's how many more can say that.
Prince; the ultimate innovator; the consummate genius. This song was groundbreaking on so many levels... I still wonder why he didn't sue Ready For The World when they turned this song into 'Oh Sheila' ... eh, ... he's been ripped off so many times, he's probably used to it....
One of the all time funkiest and most lyrically clever tracks ever. Prince still rocks but 1999 is still my favorite era - he hadn't fully gone mainstream yet and he was more electronic, dark, raw. Listen to that bass, that synth, the drums, that guitar!!! It's all him.
I have been a fan of his since Junior High! He is so talented and I think he is the best musician of all time. His music is still popular at the dance clubs, it won't ever go out of style!
@colossus112785 Chit, you got THAT right! I've been going through his 70s music and that stuff was SOOOOOO good! I've been just wallowing in these good songs! Feels SOOOOO good like a kid in a candy store!
@colossus112785 Prince never did interviews. He does more interviews now than he did in the 80s. I think he only did a total of 1 interview in the 80s.
@TheFreeMentality yea u i tried for 80s interviews of him i cant find none and another thing Prince says that he's all black but he has straight hair and also he's way too light one website said he's half Italian another said he's Puerto Rican but Puerto Ricans are tall and Prince is short so idk
@colossus112785 Prince is black and he does not have straight hair. He straighten it. Just like MJ, Snoop Dogg, James Brown etc. does. I think his Father has some italian blood, a quarter. But def not puerto rican. btw all puerto ricans are tall? hahah.
@BayAreaSFGG i remember do seeing him with a afro in the 70s idk why this celebs when the get famous they wanna be white its sad to say and why on Purple Rain he made his mother Italian all these years i thought was mixed but on various websites it said his ethinicty has been under much debate for years but if he was in another country say like Nigeria he whould be white
@TheFreeMentality I think that's what I fell in love with the most about him, he was so mysterious in the earlier days...I loved that all I knew about him was his music!
Awesome pictures. I saw his album cover when he was buck naked on freaking unicorn and his hair was feathered like Farrah Fawcett's. It was something to see! He was ahead of his time for sure. He's so funky and wild. lol.
If you ever questioned who played the bass part on 777-9311, here's the answer! lol! It also answers who programmed the hi-hat pattern on 777-9311 :-) This is for Yosemite Sam, and the tourist at Disneyland! What a line! lol!
I remmy this so far back I didn't even know what any the words meant , just loved how it made me dance hehehe!! since then I've grown up,, now I say ooooooooooooo sweet explatives yaaaahhhh to this ;)
One of his best, and it's so difficult sometimes to even pick 'his best'. For me, it depends greatly on the mood I'm in. A better way to put this (but some people would make fun of) is that I see Prince's catalogue as being like the bible. In life, there is fun, sex, hurt, love, loss and everything in between. Prince is there with something that helps.
Need a Love/Adore button for this...like is to puny of word to describe how I feel about this song and Prince in general! Thanks, love the pics too!!!
HE is such a RockStar...I love how his music is just loved by ALL. It's not for black people or white..it is loved by everybody and that is really hard to accomplish. His music has never been in 1 category to me...it just makes you feel good, makes you want to dance, you love listening to what he has to say because you never know WHAT he is going to say...I love him and will love him forever. And even at 53 he's still hopping off pianos and rockin it.
20 yrs old n prince is the musical love of my life! grew up listening to him. sounds kinda weird since his old stuff was kinda "racy" but my kids will definitely grow up listening to him as well. he is music!
@cassielizaola You're kidding, right? Your kids will be better off in any respect listening to Prince than any of the teenage crap today...talking about bad influence.That Miley Cyrus,High School Musical, Justin Bieber or Jonas brothers is definitely the worst influence ever on kids, no-brainer music and lyrics...I could never understand why artists like Prince have been labelled as controversial, all the guy ever did was talk about love and sex...which is something a teen experiences anyway...
@dixxjamm i see no problem with children listening to prince trust me but whether any of us like it or not he was labeled controversial n if i told some one who wasnt a fan that my children listen to prince i wld get dirty looks, justin beiber miley cyrus n all those ppl in my eyes have no talent. im not sayin that cuz i wanna sound cool or what the fuck ever but its the turth. i wld prefer that my kids listen to prince cuz then they will get a taste of talent and songs that mean somethin.
@cassielizaola ur children will also learn how 2 b their own person, the 1 who DOES not fit the mold... i won't name names, but let's just call them the children with no talent...
prince uses synthesizers, yes, 2 ADD 2 his voice, song, music, not 2 MAKE him sound radio-bound, or acceptable....
@princefan1995 ....I DNT UNDERSTAND WHAT U PPL R TRYNA TELL ME. PRINCE IS MY FAV ARTIST. SO WHY R U GUYS WRITTING ME LIKE U NEED TO DEFEND HIM. I LOVE HIM I HAVE A FCKN PRINCE TATTOO.
@cassielizaola i'm not defending prince, i beleive he stands on his own 2 feet. alone n apart from any1 else.... at 1 point in time there were a couple artists who were quite talented, madonna being 1 n m. jackson as well. but, in 2day's world, there rn't very many who "stand out".
n, really? u have a tattoo? i just got 1 4 him in january....
@cassielizaola cool!!! come check out my pick, i have his symbol on my ankle... it says God Is Love at the top, n Love Is God on the bottom. were u at the celebration in 2001?
@princefan1995 celebration 2001? i dnt knw what that is! :( Im only 20. my first concert of his was opening night at the forum in la for his welcome to america tour, my mom thou has been a fan his whole career shes been to like 7 of his shows.
@cassielizaola the celebration in 01 was at paisley park, in his paisley park place (chanhassen, minn.) i m SO glad that there r young ppl like u, who r listening 2 him! i'm old, (like ur mom's age, prolly, lol!) tell her that i said "hey valentina" - she'll get it.

Ray Lewis is not Jamie Starr. My cousin is a musican, and he went by the stage name Jamie Starr. He use to perform in Minneapolis,MN. Though I am not going to put his name on this website, he is from Tennessee, which Prince use to perform several times before he became famous with Purple rain in the 1980's . My brother once saw him in concert. He said that he had jumped off a speaker, which to say he was a nut back then, but he had an influence on my cousin musically wise. Later.....
PRINCE WAS GIVING YOU THE BUISNESS ON THIS. STRAIGHT MUSIC FROM A TRUE ARTIST. THAT PAYED IT FORWARD IN SO MANY WAYS. CHECK HIM OUT AND HE DID IT HIS ,WAY ONLY A FEW HAVE DONE THIS .
I was 11 when I got this on vinyl. A little white girl possessed by his funk & soul and never the same again. I used to JAM to this song. One of his funkiest, best ever.
@EgoTrippersUnite OMG, I was about to tell the exact same story! I was also 11 when I got 1999 on vinyl and this was my favourite track and still is my favourite song by Prince. And yes, simplistic funk = dynamically COOL!
I also didn't realise he was 'having sex' during the monologue of this song, which also shows you how kids aren't influenced by racy lyrics.
i used to have this song back to back to back on both sides of a 90 minute cassette tape that i had to stop from making out to get up & go flip the tape over that was in my stereo on the other side of the room... (powerful groove!)
@JesseG1027 my favorite track from 1999-and i commend you for your taste...if you can delve past the flavor of the day there are countless gems to be indulged....happy hunting...
@JesseG1027 nothing wrong with having good taste...if you can delve past the flavor of the day-there are countless gems to be indulged...I commend you for looking...Happy Hunting...
@JesseG1027 Nothing wrong with having good taste...if you can delve past the flavor of the day there are countless gems to be found...I commend you for looking...keep your ears open- there's lots to be indulged....Happy Hunting....
This song had a good mixture of funky RnB, jazz, and a touch of rock all rolled into one. Only a genius can produce & create music like this back in the early 80s (1982).
Ahh this song is one among several "Classic" prince tunes that is a favorite of mine,and people this guy recorded this song by his self in the studios by track recording all of the instruments!! There has never been a musician that i know of that mastered this feat..
Prince still has over 10k UNPUBLISHED songs , he could literally put out another 1000 Cds if he felt like it, without even having to write another song. He opened for the Rolling stones several times as a kid. and hes only 50 now.
he also used the pseudonym "christopher" for the writing credits of the bangles hit song "manic monday'......he also used the name"christophertracy" in the movie "Under the cherry Moon".

My brother once saw him in concert. He said that he had jumped off a speaker, which to say he was a nut back then, but he had an influence on my cousin musically wise. Later.....

I was 11 when I got this on vinyl. A little white girl possessed by his funk & soul and never the same again. I used to JAM to this song. One of his funkiest, best ever.

@EgoTrippersUnite OMG, I was about to tell the exact same story! I was also 11 when I got 1999 on vinyl and this was my favourite track and still is my favourite song by Prince. And yes, simplistic funk = dynamically COOL!
I also didn't realise he was 'having sex' during the monologue of this song, which also shows you how kids aren't influenced by racy lyrics.

i used to have this song back to back to back on both sides of a 90 minute cassette tape that i had to stop from making out to get up & go flip the tape over that was in my stereo on the other side of the room... (powerful groove!)

This song had a good mixture of funky RnB, jazz, and a touch of rock all rolled into one. Only a genius can produce & create music like this back in the early 80s (1982).

Ahh this song is one among several "Classic" prince tunes that is a favorite of mine,and people this guy recorded this song by his self in the studios by track recording all of the instruments!! There has never been a musician that i know of that mastered this feat..

Prince still has over 10k UNPUBLISHED songs , he could literally put out another 1000 Cds if he felt like it, without even having to write another song. He opened for the Rolling stones several times as a kid. and hes only 50 now.
