Im a 36 year old 6ft 5 grown man.

But I've got to confess to shedding a tear tonight during Purple Rain.
Is that really the last time we will here it live

Anyone else shed a tear?

Please confess all. Purge the emotion!

Yep Im a 38 year old mum there wiv my son and I lost it completely when he sang nothing compares 2 u ! A fellow orger behind me even handed me a tissue bless her ! What a wonderful night

Sept 1, during Purple Rain and Sometimes It Snows In April.
Don't tell.

35. shorter. but no drier

So what do we all do now?

Earth Wind and Fire?

You will hear Purple Rain again. Have a look on the inside cover of the 'Rave un2 the year 2000' DVD it says at the bottom 'P.S. Prince plays 1999 4 the last time ever'. Perhaps it is just me but I swear he played that tonight!

13th sept..sometimes it snows in april...its a song that reminds me of a close friend who died in dec 1999 of cancer,,he was only 37,,r.i.p timmy

when will we be paid? on the 20th, condition of the heart, on the 20th..
the ENTIRE PIANO SET TONIGHT...

and tomorrow sometime when it hits me that there are no more shows..

oh, and walking out in to the arena, seeing that someone had taken the glowstick idea and ran with it.. really, for those of us there, i think we'll never forget.

i felt completely overwhelmed still do, cried allnight

Just recently every time a talk about Prince and the set's he has done, my wife says i always look like i am gonna cry..... and to be honest i feel like it.

I shead a liitle tear on the 9th Sept when he sang Adore. That was my wedding song,and unfortunatly my wife was at home.....I did ring her though, so we could both here him sing to US(and was just for us at that moment)...

have a lump in my throat the size of a water melon, and i still have not gone to bed, i am afraid of when i wake up, whether it was one or 21 concerts, we have all shared something amazing together, and that that is now gone, well u all know what i mean

a few times last night felt teary(and now realising thats it...) and on the 6th with that amazing full length 'Beautiful Ones'

actually, i think i need to cry, they say that tears hold chemicals similiar to opium, to soothe the pain and loss.

It is not about not seeing Prince play again, it is about the strange bonding amongst Prince fans, from all different walks of life, no class, no creeds, no colours, just wonderful stories and a sharing of something that is a gift to us all, i think it will be the inspiration to finish what I have started

i made a pact with myself NOT to cry (being the sensible mum of 3 that i am)..... but hell ,when the first few notes of purple rain rang out, that was it, i was gone.....and again when he sang nothing compares 2 u..... and again when he walked past me and londoner.....yep we were a security guard away from him and all me and londoner could do was stand there with our mouths wide open!!!!!

I'm testifyin' right here.
During Shhh at the aftershow, I was weeping uncontrollably and when it kicked into All the Critics, I experienced some kind of death and rebirth in fire.

yep 43 years old , erect steel for a living , went to two gigs and cried BOTH times when was played . To hear THAT song after all those years , just couldnt help it !!

Opening night, Purple Rain to start. I was actually sobbing - not even a few discreet tears, 35 years old. Cried the next time I went too.

cant believe its all over never felt so much emotion what a great summer seeing prince again

excessex said:

I nearly cried when he did All The Critics but only because I've never been able to stand that track and it brought back all the memories of it being a closer at one of the One Nite Alone shows I went to. I remember just standing there for ages after that show not quite believing that he was seriously ending on that tune, then looking around and seeing everyone else going mental. I just don't get it .

and again, the morning after the concert watching the sky news footage!!!!!

I went to two of the 02 gigs...

Cried when he sang PURPLE RAIN and SOMETIMES IT SNOWS IN APRIL...

Beautiful moments.

Not too bad ( lighting not great).....

better stuff on 3121.com.....check it out now!!!

I spent the first 20 mins of the show trying not to cry (one of those wierd fixed smile/about to cry faces that you get). Then I was fine.. until he came on and did When You Were Mine, which is one of my favourite songs and I got far toooo chuffed about it.
