That’s amazing. I hate that song.

That guitar solo above - ending “While my Guitar Gently Weeps” is SO Classic Prince. He could rock a guitar like no other.

game recognized game. <3

Ew ew ew! Fucking people, man. Does one just not see that one has left a turd on the toilet seat? Does one see but just doesn’t care and has the audacity to leave it for the next person to clean up? So many questions.

Pictured: my sexual awaking. I didn’t understand what puberty was until I saw Prince.

I insulted him to his face at a concert. Really small venue event for charity. You were never more than three people away from the stage. The show started two hours late and after standing outside in stilettos waiting to get in the venue, I was not in the mood. I was standing dead center in front of the stage, being…

brilliant man who wasn’t afraid to speak the truth

I was privileged to have seen him live, at Coachella in 2008. He brought out The Time and Sheila E and I thought I had entered nirvana. Then he launched into Radiohead’s “Creep” and I just stood there, mouth wide open, doing that laugh/cry thing you get to do only a few times in your life. If the world had ended at…

I can’t function today. I was like 9...I was in love with him.

NYE 1999 belonged to him.

Prince appeared on the 90's Muppet Show reboot. It was incredible. 11 year old Fighting Polish had no idea how to process this insanity, but I knew I loved it.

I remember seeing the video for “Cream” on VH1 as a kid and being *scandaliiiiiiiiiiized* but it is still my absolute favorite Prince song. And I can’t hear “Kiss” w/o picturing Julia Roberts in the tub with a Walkman.

Can I get proprietary on this and say Prince was a Minnesotan! A MINNESOTAN! He was from here and he chose to stay here, in a place with way more Garrison Keillors than Morris Days.

As a small girl growing up in the South in a very, very religious southern baptist home, Prince really did change my life. I didn’t know how to categorize him and I loved it. I didn’t understand the intensity of the things he sang about, but I needed to learn and experience them immediately. He gave me hope that I…

I am in such distress over this that I am seriously considering leaving work early to go home and watch Purple Rain with a bottle of wine.

I used to think I didn’t really like Prince. Then one day I realized that loved Prince and I was just being a phony.

God DAMN. Can I just say that I have had a shitty week, and Prince’s death is the icing on the shit cake? This article, and especially the comments below, are just what I needed....

Thank you, I do appreciate it. It does help knowing what happens. I’m not against dog deaths in movies, they’re just very very hard for me to watch.

Mine plays fetch, but I didn’t teach her...she taught me ;)

Wait a second. There were kittens out there, trained to dodge exploding squibs, and up for adoption....and no one told me?
