Prince Says Internet Is Over
2010-07-06
"According to the artist currently known as Prince, 'The internet's completely over.' At least that what he says in an interview with the British newspaper Mirror. Quoting Prince: 'The internet's like MTV. At one time MTV was hip and suddenly it became outdated. Anyway, all these computers and digital gadgets are no good. They just fill your head with numbers and that can't be good for you.'"

#13  But I will always think of him fondly for one reason...

Is there any other little red corvette, purple rain, 1999, rasberry beret, when doves cry, kiss, etc? Nothing but nothing is more fun to jam out to during karaoke than Prince, in my humble opinion. Prince, the wild young version, is sorely missed, in my book.

#9  The true pity is that his career was ruined by a combination of religion and ego. When he became a Jehovah's Witness, his talent just hit a brick wall, no longer able to express his inner perverted little gremlin muse.

And now he has two bad hips, but refuses to get hip replacements, which would mess up anyone.

But I will always think of him fondly for one reason. When Raspberry Beret came out, junior enlisted personnel with the 82nd AB drove their NCOs nuts just by humming it. Which they did with the malicious glee known only to junior enlisted men.

#5  Well, that settles it then. I mean, if Prince says it's over, it's over. Guess we're goin' back to vinyl LPs and reel-to-reel.
