If Prince retired from the music business...

If Prince decided today that he wanted to leave the music business and just live a normal life.....how would you feel?

good for him. i have a buttload of music in my collection by the man and i've seen him enough times. have a good life.

but nobody in music who says they're gonna retire ever really does. there's always the big "comeback tour" that seems to last the rest of their lives.

so i really hope he "retires". wink

hmmmm.


Indifferent.

He's given me some of my favorite music. I would place 4 of his albums in my top 10 all time favorite albums (even though I rarely listen to them now).


So, I'd probably just feel closure.
I kind of had closure with Prince about 3 years ago--In my mind, he's basically retired. The stuff that's out now is great, but it lacks the same "umph" that his older stuff has. So, if he retired, I'd be happy for him.

Now, I DO wish vault material would continue to be released. shrug

co-sign. I just got into him. And I've NEVER been to one of his concerts. If he said he was retiring I would be very very very very very upset. sad

He can't retire until I've seen him in concert for the first time.
Don't hurt me, I'm a newb. I'm supposed to be stupid.
