Again I didn't say all but a large part of his catalogue is, that is for sure.

2016 minus 1983 - 33 years - Read the lyrics to Here on Lotusflow3r Prince had eternity in mind.

Prince was continually trying to get her back.

There are some pretty big reason why it never happened.

Yet he was stuck on her. Crazy - yes, maybe or romantic? But that doesn't mean it wasn't real.

I saw a documentary on Lee Marvin. He had a relationship with a woman for a short time when he was 22 and the woman was 15. He went on to marry another woman and have 4 children. Had a very famous relationship with another woman which led to a famous palimony suit. He went back to the woman he had a relationship with when she was 15. They stayed together for the rest of his life. Who would think Lee Marvin would be a romantic and want the woman from his early days. Yet he did. Love is love. I don't know that it is easily understood. Prince was a romantic hardhead that is for sure. Nothing Compares 2 U. I think he meant it when he wrote and his entire life. That is why he didn't like it being associated with Sinead O'Conner.

If the love of your life needed medical treatment you’d be financing it forever. I’m very sure she meant a lot to him but knowing she was so sick he wouldn’t be writing about her and not helping. Even if she refused you’d be helping. I think when she passed he was devastated of course but it’s not completely sensical. He had many loves - two wives! Vanity may have been the most special perhaps but oils you be writing love songs while love of your life who you want to be with is dying and not helping out? No. It wasn’t his place to not blaming him he was a great man but this is why I don’t quite follow.

You would think. We don't that he didn't support her financially. However, there is more to the story. And Prince was very sensitive about money issues. I think Vanity wanted to do it on her own as much as she could. But there were other people with lots of money involved also. I haven't even got into that, yet.

I'm not saying there there is any logical sense to the story. Love is not logical. Especially, when you hear the entire story. My opinion Prince should have just let her go. Maybe it was true love. Maybe it was pride. Maybe it was both. Prince definitely was banging his head against a wall. You love who you love. I think he tried with other women, the wives but "nothing comapred to Vanity" or what Prince thought in his mind who she was. Denise/Vanity I think was very damaged by her upbringing. Yet she was definitely charismatic in a goofy sort of way. I found myself falling in love with her a bit and she was already dead. It's really hard to explain without getting into the whole story. And this thread is not the place. All I can say is Judith Hill said it in her statement to police. "Prince gets locked-in". Right or Wrong. Logical or Illogical. Sense or Nonsense. I think he was locked-in to Vanity/Denise.
