No Tribute Performance Will Ever Do Prince Justice It doesn't matter if it's an associated artist or some current chart-topper.
No matter the performance it won't be Prince.
Period. |

Correct. I agree 100%. All these tributes irritate me. | |

Someone in one of the other threads said it well. A tribute is just that...a tribute. It's not about bringing him back onstage. All we can do is try to do is enjoy it. | |

Thinking you are probably right about that. Welcome to "the org", Mumio…they can have you, but I'll have your love in the end  | |

Agree! When a tribute is being done, for me I feel the hurt and emptiness all over again. | |

I feel like Sheila and the other folks he helped to make famous could come close. Such a shame that they haven't had a chance yet to do that. | |

Tributes are always a letdown and pointless IMO. A tribute would be airing the artist doing his/her own music. A video montage would do the trick. Cover tributes are often a cynical attempt to gain publicity in association with another's fanbase. When a tribute is done for an actor you don't have other actors imitating the one who is receiving tribute, do they? | |

Yep, some co-workers asked me if I saw the tribute. "Of course not" I answered. Who has time for such nonsense.
Anyone who tributes Prince will be a lesser performer. | |

I've had enough tributes, thank you. Even the tribute Prince attended was a meh moment with Prince reacting with Now, back to watching Prince tribute himself. "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato
