Hi,
a thought came to my attention while watching your video on the love symbol. You said towards the end that during his piano and mic shows the love symbol was not used.
The thought that came was He used this prince as a symbol of love god and equality, but also as protection against the opposition and when he was nolonger using the symbol (during the p&m shows) he came to his "untimely" end.
would you consider the symbol something magical as well? I ask this because during the time of the symbol he was untouchable, nothing against him would prosper and when he presented himself without it, the "spell" for lack of a better word was broken and he became vulnerable.
just a thought.
p.s. I appreciate your work on his legacy.

I could see that theory. Part of the symbol that I didn't talk about was how it equated to the alchemical symbols, which usually involve immortality and health. So without it...

And I appreciate that you like what I do. I'm trying to use YouTube as a platform to spread Prince's legacy as far as I can, and so far it's working, so that's good. Thank you so much for following along on this journey.

Cheers!
