In college I asked my friends roommate what type of music she listened to and she replied, "all I really listen to is Prince."I can remember is thinking, "how weird, all she listens to is one artist." That was until about 3 years later when I got into Prince on my own and for like the next 2 years he was all I l listened to lol!
Back in the day Prince was great, but what happened??? In 2 decades+ he has released no great albums, and isn't doing anything very creative or original - he is just releasing same old tired lame funk rubbish. The general public quite rightly couldn't give a damm these days what he releases, only some die hard fans care. As a revording artist these days he is utterly insignificant, as a live act he is still good.
@caligirlmiami disgusting!!!! he is my greatest influence as an artist please go to my channel to listen to dove that will cry where i sampled this artist

I remember seeing this when it first came out.... and OH MY Prince has a lovely backside was all I could think lol I still think he has great "assets" but I love the song even more now then I did when I was 15.
Yes they still call him rude and most women wish he was nude. He is straight not gay. and he believes in God and himself. Yet after 30 years there is still CONTOVERSY. We love you Prince!!!
During my "High School" days, I've always wanted that "Studded Trenchcoat" he's sporting. As of now, I still want one............"The Legacy of Prince".....May never die.
Silly of me to even notice this, but why is Prince's mike stand so short in this video. I mean I know he's short but the stand seems to be damn near to the floor by the end of the vid. And can someone post Sexuality before the start pulling this stuff off youtube!!!
