What Prince song really made U think about Ur imortaltity

It was hours after my Grandfather passed away in mid '96 when I listened 2 Still Would Stand All Time,(after numerous listenings in the past) that I realized why we're here... any thoughts? -- take a listen... with an open mind...and "all things will B fine ."

I'd have to say that it was, "For You." because Prince sounded heavenly.

1999

when I was growing up they were about sexuality not imortality( for you - Parade) but that is my 2 cents

Easy one this and a reminder to go and listen to it again.

Last December.

The prelude to LET'S GO CRAZY.

I was maybe 12 and I was fascinated by his messages. The song comes on with such urgency and gravity -- the gravity of a funeral-- and then it escalated with even more urgency.

The line about Dr. Everything'll Feel Alright made me question how people skate through life in a fog instead of facing it head on... in the wind.. even if it makes you crazy.

AT 12, the line "Ask him how much of your mind, baby..." penetrated me deeply.

And then it continued: "Cause in this life things are much harder than in the afterworld.In this life, you're on your own."

That was chilling.

I remember thinking I really wanted to kick ass in this life so I could enjoy the afterworld thinking "Man, I really kicked ass."

It was more than a party song to me.
And still it.

I LURVE it.

Last December.

Especially that last verse:
"In ur life didnt u just give a little? Or did u give all that u had?"

and also Anna Stesia makes me ponder the whole idea of God's power and how it somewhat turned Prince's life around (didn't realize he'd been facing the wrong direction).
I've often thought of the line "have u ever felt so lonely that u felt like u were the only one in this world?"
as something I can understand. It makes sense for me because there have been times I've been that lonely.

The instant I heard Gold’s first note, it became Prince’s mark on my soul: a tattoo I wear with pride.
Prince is Dreamy, gives my Life that Pop and 2 the industry, he’s Royalty.

Gold still makes my hairs on my arms stand on their ends. It was a song that I listended to whilst pregnant and the song was surely overplayed whilst Princelet was a baby as she used to settle when it was playing. That will be one of the closest songs for me.

That and 'The love we make'. That sends shivers down my spine.

Funny how you can hear so many messages within one single song, Its how we perceive it I guess. One moment it can be a positive song and then wow, its totally the opposite.

"When Doves Cry" because the lyrics are drenched in pathos and regret.

God.

Purple Rain and let me explain. When I was in high school another student died and at that age thinking someone could die is a traumatic thing. anyway, purple rain was the hot song at that time and i'd hear it all the time while i'd be thinking of it all, it's the reason the song has never really been a favorite of mine. sad.

REFLECTIONS -live on Tavis Smiley

When he references his mom, and the look on his face, I feel all sad and think how little time we really do have.

~ THE "PRINCE SONGS AS ANAGRAMS" THREAD IS THE BEST! PRINCEY: point me in the right direction 2 make my connection 2 your purple perfection & get my musical infection!"

Paisley Park...definitely.

Sometimes it snows in April... First time I heard it I shed a tear or 2 and wanted this played at my funneral, pictured everyone sitting round crying and listening and transforming everyone into a Prince fan from that moment on LOL so dramatic
