HECK YEAH! this is just a few of those moments.
During the 7 day Celebration he did Sometimes It Snows in April.... and out of no where (I was so embarrassed ) tears was falling,I was bawling make up ruined and all. oh and JUST MY IMAGINATION .....played on WBAI chokes me up every time. There's a build up to the song coupled with the last note he hits.My mercy lets hope THE Dance will happen in my lifetime so I can throw myself on the floor in a puddle of my own snot and tears looking real distraught. | |

utopia7 said: PDogz said: The first time I heard "Purple Rain". I had bought it on cassette tape the day it was released, and was listening to it on my Ghetto Blaster on the rooftop of my building (while enjoying a cold beer, a doobie, and some sunshine). I don't know why because I didn't really get the lyrics on the first listen, and I had no concept of what the movie was going to be about yet, but something about that music just grabbed my heart - the rest is history.
I just wanna hug you right now ! I really felt the 80's picture you just painted Aww, thanks! It was a powerful moment that I remember clear as a bell to this day. I remember many moments of The 80's that often bring back a teardrop or two. Thanks for feeling me. I accept your hug, warmly. | |

I was sitting up in bed on last New Year's Eve, watching the Prince "tribute" band Purple Reign "perform" on Letterman's show.
I cried a little then because I missed him and it was apparent to me how much I missed him as I was watching this terrible mockery of his music LIVE ON NATIONAL TV. And I spoke a little prayer to God to please let Prince come back out and play. Then about a month later I hit up Prince.org and found out about the new tracks. And THEN I got to hear them thanks to the power of the internets. Sitting there, listening to Colonized Mind and knowing that there was more new stuff coming I cried HARD. The work. Let me show you it. | |

Adore...probably the BEST ballad ever written by A-N-Y-B-O-D-Y. I know I'm skipping over "nothing compares 2 u" and "the dance", etc., but adore makes me cry like a whipped pup. It is REMARKABLE | |

One day a few years ago, a tear streamed down my cheek when listening to condition of the heart, it must of been the fragility in his voice in that song. It was weird as fuck cos i was typing up an essay at the time. That being said it may have been the essay that made me cry | |
