Song of Myself By 1819-1892 1 I celebrate myself, and sing myself, And what I assume you shall assume, For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you. I loafe and invite my soul, I lean and loafe at my ease observing a spear of summer grass. My tongue, every atom of my blood, form'd from this soil, this air, Born here of parents born here from parents the same, and their parents the same, I, now thirty-seven years old in perfect health begin, Hoping to cease not till death.

Creeds and schools in abeyance, Retiring back a while sufficed at what they are, but never forgotten, I harbor for good or bad, I permit to speak at every hazard, Nature without check with original energy. 2 Houses and rooms are full of perfumes, the shelves are crowded with perfumes, I breathe the fragrance myself and know it and like it, The distillation would intoxicate me also, but I shall not let it. The atmosphere is not a perfume, it has no taste of the distillation, it is odorless, It is for my mouth forever, I am in love with it, I will go to the bank by the wood and become undisguised and naked, I am mad for it to be in contact with me.

He explained that he had changed his name to an unpronounceable symbol to emancipate himself from his contract with Warner Bros., and that he had done it out of frustration because he felt his own name now belonged to the company. Prince sometimes used pseudonyms to separate himself from the music he had written, produced, or recorded, and at one point stated that his ownership and achievement were strengthened by the act of giving away ideas. Pseudonyms he adopted, at various times, include: Jamie Starr and The Starr Company (for the songs he wrote for and many other artists from 1981 to 1984), Joey Coco (for many unreleased Prince songs in the late 1980s, as well as songs written for and ), Alexander Nevermind (for writing the song ' (1984) by Sheena Easton), and Christopher (used for his song writing credit of ' (1986) for the ).

Copyright issues [ ] On September 14, 2007, Prince announced that he was going to sue and, because they hosted his copyrighted material, and he hired the international Internet policing company. In October, claiming that they were abusing copyright law after the music publisher had YouTube take down Lenz's home movie in which the Prince song ' played faintly in the background. On November 5, several Prince fan sites formed 'Prince Fans United' to fight back against legal requests which, they claim, Prince made to prevent all use of photographs, images, lyrics, album covers, and anything linked to his likeness. Prince's lawyers claimed that this constituted; the Prince Fans United said that the legal actions were 'attempts to stifle all critical commentary about Prince'.

Prince's promoter stated that the only offending items on the three fansites were live shots from Prince's 21 nights in London at earlier in the year. On November 8, Prince Fans United received a song named 'PFUnk', providing a kind of 'unofficial answer' to their movement.

The song originally debuted on the PFU main site, was retitled ', and is available on the. On November 14, the satirical website pulled their 'image challenge of the week' devoted to Prince after legal threats from the star under the (DMCA). At the 2008 ('Coachella Festival'), Prince performed a cover of 's ', but immediately afterward he forced YouTube and other sites to remove footage that fans had taken of the performance, despite Radiohead's request to leave it on the website. Days later, YouTube reinstated the videos, as Radiohead said: 'it's our song, let people hear it.'

In 2009, Prince put the video of the Coachella performance on his official website. In 2010 he declared 'the internet is completely over', elaborating five years later that 'the internet was over for anyone who wants to get paid, tell me a musician who's got rich off digital sales'. In 2013, the granted to Prince the inaugural 'Raspberry Beret Lifetime Aggrievement Award' for what they said was abuse of the DMCA takedown process. In January 2014, Prince filed a lawsuit titled Prince v. Chodera against 22 online users for direct copyright infringement, unauthorized fixation, contributory copyright infringement, and.

Several of the users were fans who had shared links to bootlegged versions of Prince concerts through websites like. In the same month, he dismissed the entire action without prejudice.

Prince was one of only a handful of musicians to deny permission to parody his music, having done so 'about a half-dozen times', and, by Yankovic's account, has been the sole artist to do so without giving any explanation beyond a flat 'no'. Personal life [ ].

Prince's home and recording studio,, in Over the years Prince was romantically linked with many celebrities, including,,,,,,,, and of and. Prince was engaged to in 1985. When he was 37, he married his 22-year-old backup singer and dancer, on 1996. Mayte Garcia wrote in her memoir, The Most Beautiful: My Life with Prince that she was 16 when she first met Prince backstage at a concert in Germany after submitting a tape of her belly dancing. They had a son named Amiir Nelson on October 16, 1996; he was born with and died a week later. In 2001, Prince married Manuela Testolini in a private ceremony; she filed for divorce in May 2006 after being separated from Prince for two years. Divorce records indicate Prince had locked Testolini out of their Minnesota home in early 2005.

Prince was an activist who followed a diet for part of his life, but later described himself as. The for his album (1999) featured a message about the cruelty involved in production. Prince joined the in 2001, following a two-year debate with friend and fellow Jehovah's Witness musician. Prince said that he did not consider it a conversion, but a 'realization'. 'It's like and in ', he explained. Prince attended meetings at a local and occasionally knocked on people's doors to discuss his faith. Prince had needed double hip-replacement surgery since 2005.

A false rumor was spread by the tabloids that he would not undergo the operation because of his. However, the Star Tribune reported that Larry Graham, Prince's mentor and Bible teacher, 'denied claims that Prince couldn't have hip surgery because his faith prohibited blood transfusions,' putting the false rumor to rest, as hip surgery does not require blood transfusions. According to Morris Day, Prince in fact had the hip surgery in 2008. The condition was reportedly caused by repeated onstage dancing in high-heeled boots.

Prince had been using canes as part of his outfit from the early 1990s onwards; towards the end of his life he regularly walked with a cane in public engagements, which led to speculation that it resulted from his not having undergone the surgery. As a Jehovah's Witness, Prince did not speak publicly about his charitable endeavors; the extent of his,, and was publicized posthumously.

He also helped fund. In late March 2016, Prince told an audience he was writing a memoir, tentatively titled The Beautiful Ones. Awards and nominations [ ].
