Fresh Prince of bel-air thread- Because we knew all the words to the theme song!!
 

So i realized there isn't a thread about Fresh prince....i m not the only one who watched it right??? ;) i thought that it was a great show! haha
and it comes on like all the time as reruns on like tbs and wgn.

the lyrics:

Well this is a story all about how
my life got flipped turned upside down
and i'd like to take a minute just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel-air.

In West Philidelphia born and raised
on the playground is where i spent most of my days
Chillin out maxin relaxin all cool
and all shootin some bball outside of the school.

When a couple of guys said "we're up to no good"
started makin trouble in my neighborhood.
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
she said "you're moving with your aunt and uncle in bel-air"

I whistled for a cab and when it came near
the license plate said fresh and had a dice in the mirror.
If anything i could tell this cab was rare
But i thought nah forget it "yo home to Bel air"

I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
and i yelled to the cabby "yo home smell ya later"
looked at my kingdom i was finally there
to sit on my throne as the prince of bel-air.

haha anyone else a fresh prince fan?

Fresh Prince was the only comedy I ever liked, but that could've been because of my love of Will Smith... :look:

I've seen every episode of the show.

haha i love will smith too! oh man i had the biggest thing for him. now it's not so much of a big thing. but yea i saw every episode too!

Fresh Prince rocks!!!!

LOVE IT!

Cartlon and Will were so funny!

And to my notice they was not a single character who wasnt funny!:lol:

I still have a thing for Will Smith. ;) I've seen many of his movies, and Men in Black is a favorite of mine. He just has a lot of charisma, and I really do think he's a good actor.

I think the first episode I saw of Fresh Prince was the one with the earthquake. And he was on a date with this girl...I remember part of the little ryhme he did...

".....
girl gettin' on my nerves
goin out of my mind
I thought she was fine
don't know if her body is hers" :lol:


I remember she took her nails off, and I think a hair piece, too.

haha yea that is a great one i remember that one!! :lol:

and when he was looking in the mirror once and he was like Jean Claude Van damn I'm fine! lol and he is haha


I remember she took her nails off, and I think a hair piece, too.

I dont think u understand how much I LOVE the Fresh Prince. I watch every episode everyday(along with Saved By the Bell) as if they are new episodes!!!


I really want this series to come out on DVD!




**Colie**

oh my gosh!! a dvd would be sooooooooooo awesome!!

I still watch this whenever it's on:D It just never gets old. Will and Carlton were classic. You can see Will's growth as an actor throughout the course of the show, and I love that he could be funny and still pull off an emotional scene. It just killed me to see him cry though.

Will and Carlton dancing back-up to Ashley at her showcase at The Peacock still makes me laugh. Will and Carlton dancing in general is a laugh riot. :)

I know. I remember the episode when his dad came back, and then left him again. The end killed me, when he started crying in front of Phil.

Another funny one that comes to mind is when he, Carlton and Jazz were stuck in the elevator. I think it was when he was engaged to Lisa, and they were fighting because of the best man thing. :lol:

Yea those were both great episodes!!! :)


I also loved the episodewere Jeffery thought he won the lotterey!!!!!! :lol::lol:

Fresh Prince was a great show. I watch the re-runs all of the time on TBS and soon, it will be coming to Nick at Nite. Starting Sept. 13th Nick at Nite is having a Fresh Prince marathon to introduce the show. I'm not sure how long it will last, the marathon that is. :)

Also there is a part left out of the lyrics. The original lyrics, I believe had a part about packing and on the airplane. I recall a few episodes with that in the intro.

Here's the original lyrics:


Now this is the story all about how my life got flipped, turned upside down. And I'd like to take a minute just sit right there I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel-Air

In West Philadelphia born and raised, on the playground where I spent most of my days
Chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool and all shooting some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys, they were up to no good, started making trouble in my neighbourhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared and said "you're moving with your aunt and uncle in Bel-Air"

I begged and pleaded with her the other day But she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way She gave me a kissin' and she gave me my ticket I put my walkman on and said I might as well kick it First class, yo this is bad, Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass Is this what the people of Bel-Air livin' like, Hmm this might be alright!

I whistled for a cab and when it came near the License plate said "Fresh" and had a dice in the mirror If anything I could say that this cab was rare But I thought now forget it, yo home to Bel-Air I pulled up to a house about seven or eight And I yelled to the cabby "Yo, home smell you later" Looked at my kingdom I was finally there To settle my throne as the prince of Bel-Air

yea i knew there were more lyrics, but that was only mentioned in one episode (i think), so i figured i'd use the most popular lyrics everyone knows from what's most often played ;) but thanks for the lyrics anyway :)

They were only on for one episode? I thought it was more than that. Anyways, your right the people know the shorter lyrics better. I used to sing those lyrics all the time with my friend Patrick on school field trips. :D

Thanks for those wonderful pictures. :love: They really had an all-star cast on the show. I wonder what all of them are doing now. I know that Will is still in the movies and Alfonso, had some shows on UPN I think.
