A). Growing up, I moved around so much. I did not live in one spot more than a year until I was in 11th grade. Not that I felt alone or anything but I did feel like a loaner where I was always an outsider. All through which, Prince was my best friend, my boyfriend if you would. I would sit and listen to his records over and over. This for some reason comforted me. I would listen to other artists such as the Tom Tom Club and Michael Jackson; they did not do it for me like Prince did (does).
B). Prince albums are the only albums I spent my money on. I loved the pictures and posters that came with the records. I would hang the posters on the wall of my bedroom and it would drive my mother crazy (because of course he hardly had any cloths on) but I did not care. The other albums would be given to me as birthday or Christmas gifts. I received Michael Jackson’s Bad album, The Debarge family, Earth Wind and Fire and Marvin Gaye (which I totally did not understand…I thought he sang old folks music).
I just stopped myself from purchasing a CD that I want because of the cost. I am not interested in spending $17.00 for only 9 songs. It is outrageous to charge that much for half an album. I can get a double album by Prince for only $9.99 at target. That is a better value (and it having to be Prince has nothing to do with it-just a coincidence).
