lol and that. Which a simple google search will tell you. Clapton just remained uncredited for it.

I saw it as both a love for Harrison’s music AND I think he was there for Harrison’s son. Both of which, on that night, were very important.If you go back and watch again, there are several times while playing Prince is focused on the kid and trying to draw him out and encourage him. Harrison would have been proud.

seriously, so you go back posthumously and THEN decide if he’s worth the worldwide outpouring of grief. They need to go home and get a few lessons on good vs tolerable vs transcendent, even when he’s being vulgar. (Gett Off as and example, Darling Nikki another)

There’s always that /one/ guy. Why you gotta be /that/ guy?

it was also one of those albums that literally grabs at you from the start and doesn’t let go. Wasn’t Purple Rain written for his mother to express how he felt about his father/stepfather’s abuse of her?

Oh thanks, making me cry again. Also that’s awesome, the photo, guitar and the story with it.

somewhat amusing that they’d get like 2-3 words out and just think, ok Fuck it, let him play

they said in the article. It ascended. I guess he went to go get it back.

matching the melody line and the lyrics alone was magic. And you could ‘Hear’ his guitar singing the song right along with them.

I grew up listening to tom petty and the heartbreakers, I didn’t hate them or The Cars but I can maybe name 3 songs by each that I actually like. Driving the speed limit to Running Down a Dream is almost impossible.

I’ve always thought that, it wasn’t to make himself stand out, he was even, by Prince standards dressed to blend more than stand out. Harrison himself did some of the same things with a guitar, just not well as flashy. I also think that Prince was there FOR George’s son. No matter how many years have passed, that kid…

shh, seriously, chill. We still have no way to know if the whole thing wasn’t planned. Don’t fight over something that may have just been part of the act.

I always thought that petty was gearing up to just put on a wig and secretly sneak in once Dillon died, so we’d not notice.

Bowie was one of my mom’s favorites, thus I grew up on him and on Fleetwood Mac, Carole King and Janis Joplin. (born in the early 70's can you tell.) Prince was my first real musical rebellion from the bubblegum pop of the 80's which were my teenage years. (there’s only so much Bangles, Gogos, Debbie Gibson and…

I have 3 meds I have to take that ALL cause night sweats, my cats keep knocking my fan off center. I live in hell :(
