The Occasional Thought Thread /Scattered thoughts

@Dalia its lovely to read you & i can give you some rep lol I've been missing your posts haha
Thanks for asking!
💗 Always !
I see that you have been busy as usual
posting lots and lots of Prince pics,
Yes of course. I've been meaning to post more of his guitar pictures too. I shall do it in due time :heart:
listening to his music and posting more info on the other
threads!!!
It is so easy to get immersed in his artistry because he has so much to his name.
How are you? @Christina_Denied_Tx1885 Leos are one of my favorite signs!
I'm pretty good actually thank you! I've just been watching a film which i'll chat about in a moment. Leo the lion huh ? do we have any um zodiac threads or anything ...thats not my area, but i'd love to read more about that special stuff.
 

I watched Musica and i'm not sure if i enjoyed it ! yet it made me think...
Has anyone else seen this?

A young man with synesthesia faces an uncertain future while navigating the pressures of love, family and his Brazilian culture in Newark, N.J.
Initial release: 13 March 2024

Basically the main character 'Rudy' is living with a symphony in his head all day , every day ... so in areas, It felt how the theme could deeply relate to P? I had to take a break because the constant intertwining & shifting of sounds/imagery ....& Rudy's puppet thing drove me nuts. It has a slight dry/dark humour embedded within the written script so be aware of thatif it is not your thing.,

But , for instance. The opening restaurant scene ..& partway through the film, the park bench. just that , those parts guys.
I felt for Rudy! Not sure exactly when' Synesthesia' was recognised. & even if P spoke about that himself ever? .. yet Musica ..the theme of it -reminded me of the interview P once did for MoJO magazine in the earlier 80s where sounds would truly take over. So , if one's mind is built like this ...I think your creativity is so absolutely 3D it won't stop untill you take it into the 5D ..& to me, thats is exactly what he did.

To quote from the interview :
"The thing is that when you're called, you're called. I hear things in my sleep; I walk around and go to the bathroom and try to brush my teeth and all of the sudden the toothbrush starts vibrating! That's a groove, "

Whole interview i'll just place here.

PRINCE CALLS MOJO ON HIS BIRTHDAY JUNE 7, 1986. HAPPY BIRTHDAY PRINCE.​

@mdiver Even young adults in their mid 20's are still not mature mentally,
around age 25 is when their brains are fully mature and they start making
rational decisions. Thus, an 18 year old is a teen/kid not a mature adult(even
though they think they are!).
 
Been thinking ..again guys.. & don't answer if its you know , it brings up things it shouldn't.. I'm just curious of this slave thing. Did he go on telly & ask you all like 'oh , this is whats going on, i want you guys to .. so & so" or did he just appear with the slave written on his face one day ? because seems he didn't ask /expect his kids to fight the record company ???? do you see what i mean ? Even being an outsider , I don't recall any drama ..like ,headlines - prince fights for his freedom ??.I'm trying hard to think if there was anything but I seriously can't remember. What was your initial reaction to when that was all happening ? I believe some of you were pretty young yourselfs! , & none of society were very 'clued up' back then, if you see what i mean. The media was a mind controlling tool etc. Soo.. How did you find out ? & i'm sorry that some fams got made fun of, kids can be really very cruel ..but how did you learn what he was initially doing? . Did he tell you beforehand in the LoveSymbol album /days so you were all ready to fight or..was this not the case at all? & he took care of it alone/with the NPG...spoke through, just used visuals... the slave make up/ the Symbol/ the tora tora /Victor character .Does that make sense ?
Signed. ~ curious fam lol

I'm so glad this thread has brought some fams together. That we are 'all' talking. I think its nice.

As I recall it, he just did it... and all the media took the piss big time. There was very little about the 'whys' and much more mockery about how people might pronounce the symbol. He was largely called AFKAP in the UK Press. I didn't fully understand it all at the time to be honest. To me who just wanted the music, it all seemed a bit far fetched. Of course in hindsight, he was well ahead of everyone else (as he often was).
 
another one fam..ooh i'm full of it tonight lol ...i thought that wasn't his 'symbol' I thought ..whats that then, a 7 ? ...no. what could it mean lol


"TIL Prince used this white shirt with the word "nude" in Japanese katakana inscribed in its neck and wrists for the legendary Nude Tour show in Tokyo Dome, 1990."

The effing media back then. They were brutal to him ? :( oh that's nasty then i will stay clear of any new papers articles for sure. thanks maple , ah yeah yucky
There was very little about the 'whys' and much more mockery about how people might pronounce the symbol.
Mm... that's a mind maze.. it would be unpronounceable...hmm

No I can appreciate how maybe frustrating that could have all been for you. Well that's show business but ....
Of course in hindsight, he was well ahead of everyone else (as he often was).
Yeah that's very true maple he was very original. He seemed to have all the ideas first !o_O🫥 Yep i have to hands down agree with that. truly original indeed.
 
Hi Everyone.
Hope all is well. Yesterday i was looking at google ...

' i know this !' and it becomes familiar. And it becomes nice. Does that make sense?
