Pictures of Prince (AKA Squiggle)

One of the most creative artists of this century has got to be The Artist Formerly Known as Prince (AKA .) Although people may deem him as a freak of nature and think that he is not that talented, many of these people simply do not know the facts about this man. He plays 27 instruments (all of which he learned by ear), by the time he was 12 he had learned 7 instruments, he was receiving offers from record companies since the time he was 14, had his deal at 18.

He is a prolific songwriter. He has written songs for many other bands as well. Some of his more famous works include "I Feel For You" for Chaka Kahn, "Manic Monday" for the Bangles, "Nothing Compares 2 U" for Shenaid O'Connor", and "I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man" (covered by Jordan Knight). His reasoning for this is that you have to give away a lot in order to receive. He feels that this is the reason he has been so successful, and I feel that is true.

The main reason I enjoy him (aside from his immense talent) is because he is so wise. He has taught me to express my individuality with this quote: "True freedom takes place in the spirit. Many will try 2 shackle that spirit, 4 many have none of their own. Step 2 the right and uppercut them all. Never stop believing that if nothing else- things change. Evolve in2 the light and all disorder will cease. Live4loveandlovewilllive4you. I wish you in heaven." I have become a more spiritual and tranquil person because of him, and for that I am grateful.

Anyway, I hope that I have enlightened you on the finer aspects of Prince. If you care to learn more, please visit loveforoneanother.com.
