HARVEY LEVEN FROM TMZ JUST STATED ON CNN... THEY HAVE A PICTURE OF HIM AT WALLGREENS LAST NIGHT, SENDING SOMEONE TO PICK UP MEDICINE, AND PRINCE WALKING BACK AND FORTH SWEATING PERFUSELY... HARVEY STATED THEY WILL RELEASE THE PICTURE SOON...

the picture is just a photo of a black SUV with Prince walking towards it. There's no proof that it was even at a Walgreens and you can't see if he's sweating, or anything. I'm waiting for more info. It's hard to believe that if they did give him a opioid antidote shot, either the hospital or anyone from his camp would tell someone. HIPPA guidelines would prevent the hospital from doing so.

Watch these things, they are crucial now:

- The vault: should not be destroyed or locked up but preserved and published where possible; save money for lawsuits against the caretaker of the vault.

- The money:not interesting for us but see how they battle...

I'm devastated.

Prince has been my main musical influence over all these years.I have no words.This is surreal.

I guess i can consider myself lucky to have witnessed not only numerous concerts but also quite a few of his famous aftershow concerts.Also i was lucky to meet some members of his band and of The Time.

I could tell a handfull of stories.

But right now i'm devastated, just devastated.

Sometimes It Snows In April

R.I.P. Brother

It's the next morning here now and I don't know if I can deal with work today. I barely slept.

Devastated doesn't even begin to describe how I'm feeling. Sure you're all the same.

fucking sucks. Most of all not knowing and comprehending what caused his death. And the fact that this is really out of fucking no where. And the fact that I live in a country where people don't give a fuck about PRince and the ones who actualy know him refer to him as "oh that weird short guy with a weird voice who wears a lot of makeup"....my life sucks right now. I'm at work, at my desk, literally surrounded by people who are completely oblivious to the fact that I'm dying inside.....it still hasn't sunk in, I'm still trhing my best to cope with the shocked feelings.....I just don't know what to say or what to do...so heartbroken and feeling miseralbe right now.......

Van Jones on CNN talking about Prince the friend, philanthropist, athlete, all-around caring soul - that really got me very emotional. Because everyone's talking about what a musical genius we've lost, but Jones was the first interviewee I saw today who really elaborated on who Prince was as a person, and it really hit me what a beautiful person (not just musician) we've lost, and it just made me incredibly sad that the general public, including myself, didn't get to know that.

Van rocked it and i think what he said is just the beginning of what the prince legacy will be, dude cared a lot bout social issues.

I can't write and I can't speak...

I am in a huge shock.....

I am listening to "Art Official Age", now I suddenly hear the genius in "Clouds" and those songs there, this album is actual fantastic........ I like and love all songs on it.



Dead? Nono........ it just can't be true..

I'm similar but don't have the option not to work. My team at work all fell apart yesterday. One woman had a mini stroke in the middle of the office and got carted off in an ambulance. Another woman lost her mother last night too and another's sister went into labour this morning and can't come in as she has to take care of the other kids. And here I am wallowing in the Prince news. I'm trying to put it into perspective but can't seem to distance myself.

long time viewer, usually love coming to the org and seeing the crazy melee of opinions.

so sad this morning about the news. im also in work trying to explain to people how we will hopefully have new music for the rest of our lives gradually released, and how he was the finest performer i ever saw live.

Prince taught us to love more than hate. (Hate is self destructive)

Early reports are dubious about cause of death. Few rich people with access to high quality health care die of the "flu." Not acknowledging TMZ nonsense until there is verification from major news outlets with more credibility.

Prince railed against alcohol and drugs and he was smarter and more happy than to look for such cheap substitutes for happiness. Although he clearly pushed his body more than most physically, so perhaps there was an issue with pain.

Absolutely the same. I just keep sighing in disbelief every time it pops in to my mind.

I'm glad the site is back up just to read and vent when needed.

I am so sad, so lost and so depressed.

Im devastated and so sad. couldn't make it into work today because I couldn't stop crying and felt sick. He meant the world to me. RIP Prince x

Feel like I've been kicked in the guts. I never saw this coming, not this soon. MJ yeah, that was almost inevitable, but not our man. This was not how it was meant to end, it just feels so WRONG. But then, no one's exit from this world is ever 'the right time' or pretty ...

Prince's music has given me more pleasure than almost any other music over the last 25 years, I find it endlessly entertaining, fascinating and funky.

I don't think I'll be able to listen to his music at much length for a few months now, it was similar with Bowie, but this is much worse for me. It's just surreal.

I hope, as the reports indicate, that he went very quickly and he did not suffer.

I agree that it is what he did in his music and career that matters most of all, regardless of any possible future revelations about the man or how he left us.

One way or another, my instinct is that he worked himself to death. The man could, would not stop, until his body made him.

'Body don't wanna quit, gotta get another hit'.

He was my main music man, he WAS music.

He LIVED for music, and he may well have died for it too.

Sometimes It Snows in April. DAMN STRAIGHT
