Guess who covered Prince:P

Went to a John Legend concert this evening in munich, germany and to my surprise it was better than I expected. What really caught me was when at a point in his song he started singing (with the melody and all)
"Until the end of time
Ill be there 4 u
U own my heart and mind
I truly adore u
If God one day stroke me blind
Your beauty Id still see
Love is 2 weak 2 define
Just what u mean 2 me"(That really caught me and it took me a few seconds to actually realize it was P)and shortly after this began doing purple rain, specifically the part where prince at 5:17 starts doing that" Wooohooo whowhowho" where he hums the melody:P you know what i mean. Then he went back into the regular song and did a great outro of Adore. He is no prince and his falsettos don't get close to princes but he really did a great great job with those two:P

Felt like a cool thing to share.
Cheers!

Cool indeed thanks for sharing

Didn't know Legend covered Prince
The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.

Remember there is only one destination and that place is U
All of it. Everything. Is U.

Very cool right there. cool
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

Yep and the weird thing today was all a prince day, First i notice lolita playing on Germany's next top model while skipping through channels. Then in the car on the way to Legend i hear Kiss is the theme song for the radio station and then before the concert starts there is some club mix of 1999 as a pre concert song where the people just talk and the lights are still on
