Jessica Biel: Awesome. Prince: Completely overrated. And he looks like a rodent dipped in pubic hair.
My life is complete. Fuck Jessica Biel, I found out Zubaz were actually invented by two bodybuilders. I thought they were invented by the back-up dancers for Digital Underground. They should have let me write their tag line: Made by meatheads....for meatheads. The circle is closed. As for Prince, see him live and you may not consider him overrated, but it's music so to each their own.
He may well be great live, and I think he's a very talented musician, but the fact is none of his songs has stood the test of time. The first two songs you point to are 'Little Red Corvette' and 'Let's Go Crazy' and they sound dated. Really dated. 'Diamonds and Pearls' is a cool track, but how often do you bust out a Prince album and say 'YEAH, THIS IS WHAT I NEEDED!!!' Never. That's how often.
The German Chancellor has got her panties in a twist over an intrusive foreign government? Well boo-hoo.
Yeah, really. How dare she be offended when your supposed friend goes through your panty drawer. Those Germans have no manners.
He helped define a sound of an era, as cheesy as that sounds. I dare you to find hardly any music from the 80s that doesn't sound dated. The man could put out any album he wanted, but he's just a fucking nut so he prefers his ethereal or funky oddities. And fuck you, When Doves Cry is ALWAYS my shit. And how can you not respect the man for the ridiculous women he has pulled despite being 5'1 and 96 lbs.
My parents go see him play any time he's anywhere close in the midwest. He can play almost any instrument you hand him; string, brass, percussion. Plus you have to respect a man who seduced charlie murphy
You can all fuck yourselves with a broken baseball bat, When Doves Cry is gold, Jerry. GOLD! And something sounding dated is meaningless. The Beach Boys sound dated and they're iconic. The real test is if you enjoy listening to it even decades later, and the answer to that for many of Prince's songs, is YES! You want dated...how about 1999? That's got an actual fucking date in it and it is still played and enjoyed today.
Prince hasn't done a good job of putting his talent to use, but you still have to respect his musical ability. If you haven't seen it then go to the 3:25 mark of this: Spoiler
You can argue whether his songs stand the test of time, but seriously, who hasn't gotten laid to a prince song?
Hold on, what? Are you serious? He has 7 Grammys, an Academy award, TEN Platinum albums, something ridiculous like 30+ Top 40 singles, but because you don't necessarily like his music, he hasn't put his talent to use? Bitch please
Seriously.. Purple Rain anyone? I'm not the biggest fan, but seeing him live was one of the best shows I've ever been to. No fancy production, no fireworks, all showmanship. I have him up there with Michael Jackson, Freddie Mercury, McCartney and James Brown as my favorite performers (not musicians) of all time.
This is headed in a different direction but fuck it. First we had the breakup of Pimptress. Then we had the pending divorce of 'Sack. Now we have the pending divorce of Scotchcrotch. Apparently Juice is kinda sorta engaged. I want to hear this story. Juice, please indulge us by sharing the details of the pending nuptials because some folks around here could use a good love story. But really, I think we all want to know what the fuck you mean by sort of got engaged.
I didn't realize people actually paid alimony anymore, that's a bullshit part of divorce. The ex wife gets to sit on her ass and get paid......... For what exactly again?
