Love this song

Yes, and we are only into April. May he R.I.P.

I am getting past being shocked at the Celeb deaths this year now, and just thinking which Star will be next now :(

Just heard this on the news.....RIP Prince :(

Sometimes it snows in April
Sometimes I feel so bad, so bad
Sometimes I wish life was never ending,
And all good things, they say, never last.

:(

:(

It still hasn't sunk in for me. I'm still so shocked. :(

Edit: The last song he sung was Purple Rain.

I wouldn't be surprised if there's some more twists in the story of how he died, nothing's ever that simple with Prince.

I know it's silly to care about things like this but it's sad to see the only time acts like him are going to chart now are when they die... I know expecting all of the legends to regularly do well in the charts is naive with how varied music is today but there's something a bit macabre about the masses only really bothering to listen to them when they pass :( I guess it could just be a reminder though, so whatever gets them listening... I guess...

There's more to this story for sure.

Unfortunately, Prince's music wasn't ever going to reach those who've never heard much of him before whilst he was alive. His dislike of the internet stopped his music appearing on the likes of Youtube and Spotify.

A lot of artists of yesteryear still have their albums appear in iTunes charts.

I wish this talentless ***** would **** off. He isn't a performer. He's barely even a singer.

There possibly is. Look up on Twitter 'Blind Gossip'. I don't want to post about it as 1. I hope that truly isn't the cause of his death as it'll be even more terrible and 2. I don't want to turn this thread into that subject.

So sad, 2016 has been so awful for loss of celebs

Ruth singing Purple Rain always reminds me how talented Prince was at writing.

You should listen to his version

Legend!

(on the topic of Prince songs being warmly received as cover versions I always preferred his version of Nothing Compares 2 U)

True, but it's a case of not appreciating what you have till it's gone I suppose :(

Rosie Gaines' vocals on that track. http://i.imgur.com/3aNnn17.gif

don't it always seem to go??

Oh god... I hope Joni isn't next :worry:

Joni, Bob & Kate are pretty much all I have left (in terms of the solo greats) :( Hopefully at least 10 years can pass before they're touched...

His autopsy will take place later today.

I forgot about this



:worship:

This is pretty cool :love:

Yes looks like not Flu
but he left the hospital
to early.

Beiber is not actually talentless,just because you don't like him doesn't make it true,there is no proof he even said this, people who hate him or are jealous will post such stuff,obviously not everyone ignores it.:hehe:
