Please strike me down now so I don't have to witness this.

Love the photos in the background

Is this American Idol, or the BET Awards? I can't tell.

I'm enjoying those Prince photos but I am not enjoying this rendition of "Purple Rain". Talk about oversinging.

purple rain is trite but damn if she isnt killing it and taking it to church tho.

I am watching at the BET awards, and i knew I would be emotional... The tributes are good, but I am still so sad. Sad because I am still hurting so bad that Prince is gone, but also it seems that our music has also passed away. A more fitting tribute would be to have all performances given by real musicians, and song-writers, and not just people singing over the same tracks.

Erykah and Bilal were good, and I appreciate Dave Chappelle's intro, however, I am missing Prince more that ever now, and there does not seem to be anyone that will take his place.

Going to try to finish watching this but I don't know if I can make it.

I hear what you're saying. All of a sudden, I have started to feel very depressed and sad, because this makes me realize more than ever, that we have really lost Prince. That is tearing me up right now, and I would give anything to have him back.

Just a thought, try to appreciate the fact that we shared a room, a space, and a planet, with that man. We were alive when he was in his prime and we got the chance to experience his creative juices when he was most fruitful-- we witness the full story. We got to see him in concert in his prime and we loved his music ansd genius in reatime. We were a part of the digital age with him from the very beginning. He died young and beautiful and still doing what he loved until the end, and he had an audience of loving fans all the way. Make a Joyful Noise and miss him but don't be sad. We witnessed a truly gifted imperfect artist. And I thank God/ your chosen Higher Power for that! Hope this helps in your healing...

Stop screaming Jennifer. This is a soulful song don't butcher it.

Apparently nobody saw the youtube clip of her butchering the song.

Good thing I had my window open.
