I don't typically check in here more than once every month or two. I started checking more frequently after the Piano & a Microphone tour just to catch where the next show would be.

After the flu postings, I started checking in more frequently, almost daily. Things didn't seem right, especially with the confirmed in-flight emergency.

That morning, I checked in when the "Paramedics at Paisley Park" post was about two minutes old, with only a few replies.

I read it about five minutes after I finished a conference call. The topic: an upcoming forum on death and dying (no, I'm not joking).

I didn't have to hear the news to know what had happened.

Last August I went for my first tarot reading in Mexico and the lady told me that in Spring or early summer I would receive sad news about an older gentleman with (Prince's skin tone) that I cared for a lot. She said I would feel sadness and the shock of him leaving. I thought it was strange at the moment because I personally didn't know Prince or anyone that fits his description.

The week before Prince passed away I dreamt about him walking away like towards a park with a green garden.

My husband and I are both Prince fans. The area where we live at is not really bird friendly as there are very little birds here but couple of days ago,I saw a young dove building a nest at our neighbour tree. It was a bit weird to me but I thought that I am reading to much into it.
Later that day when my husband came back from work we were standing in the kitchen and I was again saying that it's upsetting to know that Prince is gone and as I was saying that snowflakes started to fall down from the sky and it was snowing for about 10 minutes. Signs or just coincident it made us both feel a bit better heart

I work in Times Square, but I get off the train at a different stop so I never have to walk through the Times Square "madness". Last Friday, my train went express suddenly and skipped my stop, forcing me to get off at 42nd street, and walk through the insanity. I was wearing my purple, deep in mourning, thinking about how the rest of the world doesn't have a clue how devastated I was and how no one is thinking about Prince here in this space...When all the sudden this came up in front of me. I never walk that route. I took it as a sign that he's here with me, like he always was.

How'm I gonna fill this empty room...

Nothing strange really but I had just signed up on TIDAL once again solely for Prince so I could listen to his music and get exclusives. I had signed up initially months ago because of Prince but canceled my subcription a while after because I was unhappy with TIDAL. A few weeks before Prince's death, I decided to sign back up on TIDAL. Lately, I had been listening to the "HitnRun" phase one and two more than ever and had an obsession as of lately with "1000 X's & O's" in particular.



Then after the news about P's plane making that emergency landing, I began to feel very nervous for Prince. Even after it was confirmed that he had the flu and even after he performed in ATL, I didn't feel like all was well with him. I tried to shake the feeling and wanted to believe that he was okay but I couldn't.




I've been obsessed with HitnRun as well! Fallinlove2nite is my jam!


It's quite a good album. A lot of fams seemed to dislike part one when it came out but I enjoy both phase one and two. Prince went out on a high note for sure.

I was driving to where I walk every day and as I turned the corner, I saw a white dove perched on a wire. I know, I know...just pigeon but it struck me as weird because a. we don't have a lot of pigeons

around here and b. they are usually all grey. But it was strange. Then I go to park my car and look up to see this infront of me. A van that said " PrinceTelecom" with purple writing - never even knew this company existed. I smiled and then teared up. I knew I was wanted to listen to Diamonds and Pearls CD, but couldn't find mine anywhere. So I went to a local "wreka stow" thinking they will be wiped out and they had 4 copies....AND they didn't jack up the price. Interesting morning. Peace and Love.

The rainbow over paisley 3 hours after he passed was a pretty interesting sign, I say it was his doing.

I live in Portsmouth England and this week we have had snow twice. We never get snow, even in the middle of winter, so for it snow twice in April, to me after this week of hell, it's a sign. I've taken comfort from it anyhow.

Thank u 4 a funky time

A few months ago, maybe a bit longer I actually had a dream that Prince had passed away. I cant remember the details but i had that like shocked feeling and the first thing I did when I woke up was check here and was relieved that it was just a dream, but it shook me up. I also dreamt another time where I was talking music and other things with him, wish I could remember what we talked about but it was just us and we were like shooting the breeze and he was laughing and happy. I have had music related dreams before, one which i still remember is me sitting at a piano and it was either Billy Preston or Bobby Womack came up to me and was saying things like I love your music man and everything. So maybe dreaming about P was just another music dream and hopefully not any type of premonition. I was going to mention it at the time when it was more vivid but didn't want to concern anyone.

So, for the last 6 weeks or so I've been having dreams about being on a break at work and opening up my phone and seeing reports that Prince has passed. Like randomly and out of nowhere i would have these thoughts. I brushed them off as thoughts of paranoia. I just kind of thought death was just prominently on my mind due 2 the deaths of Bowie and Vanity etc. But lo and behold when i got the news i was late for break due to a call taking longer than anticipated when a coworker decided 2 break the news 2 me

Around three weeks ago I took down a P poster I bought from his 21 nights tour in London. I'd had it on my wall for 9 years in that same spot since the concerts. I felt like taking it down for some reason - and then he died.

On Tuesday April 19th My brother and I were texting each other. We were talking about Prince's plane making emergency landing. He said Prince needs to slow it down he's almost 60. As I was texting I wrote Prince dies. I paused for a second erased it and continued with the conversation. I wondered why did type that. Did I just type what's about to happen? Thursday morning he passes away.

I was listening to music on my phone when nick fradiani's "beautiful life" comes on and it made me think of prince. Out of the 9,000 songs that could have randomly come on next, dont u know it was "Purple Rain"?
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

I still remember this dream I had earlier that morning (I woke up about 3-4am central us time) of his passing:

The setting was somewhat like "1999" except the sky was blue. The area was a beautiful beach but everything was tinted blue, with thunderclouds and lightning...no rain. Everyone was just running around crying and crying, many people.

All of the legends of music were there, even those who died.

Well I was hanging out with George Clinton and Bootsy Collins, the three of us crying and not knowing why. We were smoking some very good weed though hehe but through a hookah. We were just toking and talking about what was going on. I randomly asked George: "Where is Prince at?" and all of a sudden, like a spirit took over for a second, he said: "Prince is in safe hands now"...

Then I woke up and found out later that morning....

The other odd sign I had was being jolted awake forcefully the exact time down to the hour and minute Prince was being cremated.

Since then I keep feeling like he is here, but there is a tremendous feeling of...idk something negative deep in my gut and I'm not sick. So I keep thinking he's sending signs, possibly to all of us.

I'm not religious nor was I into spirituality before his death but I do think he was sending me signs.

Purple Music is my drug and I'm jonesin!!!!!

Sorry to hear of your loss. I worry everyday at some point about that. My biggest fear is out living my mother and my children. I wouldn't want to go on.

Hello everyone. I'm new here; and like many of you, just heartbroken. I'm so thankful that I found ya'll though because I do find comfort in checking in daily. So thank ya'll. I went to bed the other night and was just so emotional. I prayed about things on my heart, I prayed for Prince and I just needed to know he was ok. That night I had a dream. I was looking up towards the sky and he appeared. He didn't say anything but his arms and hands were out reached and he was smiling looking down at me. Words were not spoken because there was no need. In a split second after I knew he was ok he returned as quick as he came to me and it was sort of like a tunnel with clouds surrounding it. It's so hard to explain but it was beautiful. I just wanted to share this with ya'll. I also had the same dream when I was 10 after my grandmother passed away. Exact same thing, same way, she came to me. Not really sure what it all means but I am so very thankful for the dreams whether it was actually them visiting me in my dreams to reassure me they're alright, or if they were just that... dreams. I like to think they were letting me know they're ok!

Welcome! smile Wow that's pretty interesting, the fact that you had the same dream twice. I knew I couldn't be the only one here who had an interesting story to tell.

Thank you for the welcome Leslievette! I really don't know what to say about the dreams, I'm even having a hard time believing I dreamt two dreams alike of two people that have passed on. There's been other instances in my life where strange things have happened or where I knew they were going to happen. It's not something I'm super comfortable with and it doesn't happen alot which to be honest I'm glad. Although for those two dreams, I am thankful for. Very thankful.

Hello everyone,

For a couple of weeks before Prince passed away, i heard a pigeon cooing every day on my balcony. And when i looked ,the pigeon just looked at me and later on he came back.

In the beginning of the month April i found a black feather in my bag of loose tea, so i thought whatever. But i looked up what that could mean, and i saw that it could mean that somebody could die or a accident and some other things.So i was scared that moment.

On 19 april i went outside to take a walk but somehow i kept looking to a white dove that was there, because where i life you don't see white doves easily. My birthday was on 20 april and i would turn 21 years old, and the next day i heard the news about Prince and that freaked me out and the whole week i just cried.

Stay strong everybody.

I felt totally out of sorts the week proceeding Prince's death. I had nasty boughts of naseau, headaches, and immesurabley deep pangs in my stomach. I went to the Doctor early morning on April 21st. Results were inconclusive. When I returned home in the afternoon, I found out about Prince. It baffles me because the moment I found out I was relieved of the aforementioned symptoms, however that sadly paved the way for grief and exhasperation to replace them...

I don't pretend to understand the science of this, or if we really can trust or define this as an empathic experience, but if I said similar experiences hadn't happened to me before I would be lying. Like so many fans, Prince's music has been a constant in my life since I was a child.

So, yeah...as a believer in interconnectedness, I don't find it outlandish at all! There are so many mysteries in the universe, we'd be fools to judge anyone's experience. Emotion is a form of intellegence after all, and if everything breaks down to energy who is to say that onced you've been exposed to someone/something long enough, you aren't bound together on some sort of quantum wavelength...? (I think I just turned this shit into an episode of Cosmos, lol Ahem.) I might be overexagerating, because frankly I think we could all use a chuckle!

All I know for sure is that whatever we are feeling has some truth to it. I, like everyone else, will miss him & that feeling cuts to the quick. sad

I was walking to the store and I was listening to his music on shuffle and I happened to look down and there were some tiny purple flowers growing in the planter next to where I was walking. The other plants looked like they were dying but these flowers looked pretty healthy. It had to be a sign from Prince

Three interesting things for me:

1) Shortly after Prince had passed I suddenly remembered that my dad - who hasn't spoken to me and my sister for years - had a birthday in April. I went to check my birth certificate (it's a french one so show the parents' birth dates too), and lo realised that my dad was born on April 21st!

2) Last weekend, I was quietly humming Sometimes it Snows in April to myself without actually a lump in my throat for the first time since the tragedy (or at least not until the words "sometimes I feel so bad") whilst preparing breakfast. Hubby (not a fan) comes in, moaning "Oh not again please!". Me quickly resorting to turning radio on (Radio 6 Music), hoping a Prince tune will come on, to suddenly hear (straight after hubby's bad remark) : "Shut up already, damn!" blurting out. Priceless moment. lol

3) Other than those two, at about the same time of Prince's official passing, for no particular reason, suddenly had a thought about my mum's partner's death a few decades ago (he is also a celebrity) and wondered how hard and odd that must have been for her. I was thinking all this whilst looking at a painting of hers on our wall in the stairs. The painting shows my hometown lighthouse. A few minutes later, I read the news about Prince from a Friend (from the same town) on fb. The next day call my mum and whilst explaining this to her, she tells me that the ashes of her bf had actually been scattered in the sea, next to the lighthouse...

My husband and I are Christians, and my husband believes that God uses signs and things in your life to send you messages. Anyhow, my husband's dad passed last year, and we had to go out of town for his funeral. His dad was a musician, and they used to call him Toots, because he played the sax. After we flew back home, at the airport, my husband went to get the car while my son, daughter and I went to get the bags. When we got to the car, he told me to look on his shoulder, and there was a little parakeet sitting on his shoulders, and he said that it flew on his should while he was in the elevator, and he wouldn't get off, so he just got into the car with him. The little bird wouldn't budge, so we bought him a cage, and named him Toots. We just looked at it as a sign from God telling us that his dad was okay, because my husband's father had a drinking problem before he died, and wasn't a man that was close to God, so my husband worried about him, although he used to pray for him. So he took the bird as a sign that God was telling him everything with his father was alright. After Prince died, my daughter and I were in the dining room, just talking and having a snack, and a bird flew in from somewhere and flew right to the bird cage where we keep Toots and a friend we bought for it. My husband said that maybe it was God showing me that Prince was okay, because he knew that I was heartbroken over his death. I know some will think it's just a coincidence or even silly, but even it is, it made me feel better.

I'm going to sound like a ripe fruit bowl but Idc. I was driving, I thought of Prince - where he might be, next second as I turn into an unfamiliar road, there's purple flowers down both sides of the street twirled around lamp posts. Could be a coincidence, but for a split second - thought whoa.
