Eight said! I agree with U. Prince didn't like it when someone cover or paly his songs and I can't n listen to the "Tribute" also. For me, it feels like pain in my ears. I it is still hard 4 me 2 hear his songs or watch videos with him. Since he passed away, I can't still look at any of his movies or clips. I can not do it. Too sad. True, Adele paid him still best tribute!

Otherwise, no - I do not want to hear anyone else singing Prince's songs. Maybe someday that will change - but I doubt it. Check out the Brit singer Natalie Williams live tribute remake of Love 2 the 9's...it's wonderful. | |

Also, look up 'Power Fantastic' by Jazmine on youtube. She was 9 when she did this. She dedicated this to Prince. Even though it is not a tribute, it's still very sweet. I saw it a few years ago and sent her a message about how wonderful she is. She wrote me back and was such a sweetheart. Prince saw her video and invited her fam to one of his W2A shows. He was going to work with her when she turned 18. I didn't know he had even seen it until after April. He was so giving... This is mentioned in another thread but I think this is now a great tribute. Seeing little kids perform his music is very special. <3 | |

Very nice, thank you for sharing. It really illustrates what us fans already knew...what a brilliant songwriter he was. The bridge in that song is so mesmerizing. | |

Was everyone in this thread happy the VMAs gave them what they wanted (or I guess didn't want)? | |

For me, it depends on the type of tribute. It's sad to hear anyone cover his songs because it justs points out again that Prince is gone. But... When have you ever heard of any musician passing and still being honored 4 months later? I love that the world still misses him too. I *want* this, because the alternative is silence and that's a state of being I can't consider yet. I went to Spike Lee's tribute in Brooklyn in June and it was an amazing experience. The people and the spirit were everything. We knew Spike loved Prince and he put his whole heart into honoring his friend. The crowd, in turn, gave it right back. We knew who we were singing for, who we were dancing for, who we prayed for, who the tears were for. The crowd was every age and shade of the rainbow, from all over the country and world, and not one person held a thing back that day. That's what you can get from a tribute--and it helps. And the MUSIC continues...forever... | |

nursev said: Yeah this ship has pretty much passed My memorial is remembering Prince as the beautiful man he was and all the joy his music and adventures brought to my life. I probably will always shed a tear when I think of him, but at least I got a chance to exist when he did May he rest in peace I cry more than I thought I would. Emotions are still very close to the surface. :hug: Peace. Love. Prince | |
