Thanks. That is one of the most comforting things I've read in the past 24 hours.

"Still it's nice to know that uh, when bodies wear out, We can get another"

- From 'Reflection' & 1 Corinthians 15

Fox was horrible. They interviewed Trump instead.

Greta just played up the drug story. Sick.

his music was the soundtrack to my life since 1980. now it will forever be a silent movie r.i.p. prince. stickman

Rachel Maddow was a fan. Who knew.

How I wish the cable news channels would stop playing the same grainy videos for "Let's Go Crazy, "Purple Rain" and "1999". Prince demanding users take down YouTube videos really sucks now.

people are recoiling and whatnot about the drug angle. who knows; the autopsy will be released soon. (and i can't even bear to think of that process.)

.

but honestly, i don't care. i hope he was comfortable. i hope he felt amazing.

I hope you all find these words some comfort...

Keep a fire burning in your eye

Pay attention to the open sky

You never know what will be coming down

I don't remember losing track of you

You were always dancing in and out of view

I must have thought you'd always be around

Always keeping things real by playing the clown

Now you're nowhere to be found

I don't know what happens when people die

Can't seem to grasp it as hard as I try

It's like a song I can hear playing right in my ear

That I can't sing I can't help listening

And I can't help feeling stupid standing 'round

Crying as they ease you down'

Cause I know that you'd rather we were dancing

Dancing our sorrow away(Right on dancing)

No matter what fate chooses to play

(There's nothing you can do about it anyway)

Just do the steps that you've been shown

By everyone you've ever known

Until the dance becomes your very own

No matter how close to yours

Another's steps have grown

In the end there is one dance you'll do alone

A song that brings me great comfort at terrible times like this - Jackson Browne 'For a dancer'
RIP Prince - you meant the world to me xxx

still cannot believe it. Opened huff post this morning and was beyond shocked and saddened. RIP Prince, thanks for the memories.

The Morning Joe tribute was funny and sad. Loved it. Got misty when they showed the "When My Guitar" solo. The guitars are silent.

Tyka was greeting people at Paisley. Great Sister.

Listening 'Reflection' from Musicology right know. rips my heart into pieces..

Yesterday I tried so hard not to cry. I couldn't listen to any of your music because I knew it would just flow. I've been watching these videos all day but when Gold came on I lost it. I always said, "When Prince dies I'm not going to right". I didn't expect it to come so soon. I thought you would be an 80 year old man, that way I would be somewhat at peace. I appreciate everything your music has done for me. I'm just upset that I had two opportunities to see you and both times something happened. However, I will always remember my mother calling me from the Essence Festival so I could hear you sing. No other music artist or musician will ever give me what you gave me, and that's music that connects with my soul. You've inspired me to be,embrace and love every part of who I am and I will not stop. I hate seeing RIP and Remembering Prince. You will forever live through us. I still can't believe this is true and do not want to accept it. I will Love you forever Prince!!! "Until We Meet Again"

I did see where his caption was removed yesterday

I've been a member of the org for years but this will only be my 4th post. I've always loved reading everything but am more of a lurker myself.

>

My heart is absolutely broken. I know life will go on but I feel, know actually, that a part of me has gone with him and I will never be the same.

>

How can you love someone you've never met, never talked to? But through his music, he spoke to me for years, since I was a pre-teen. I feel like I can only say this here because here is where it would be understood. I love Prince. I'm in my 40's now and have loved him for what feels like forever. I will love him for the rest of my life. He is without a doubt the soundtrack to my life. For any emotion I want to feel, Prince is there.

>

I love him for saving me. There were dark teen years where I didn't want to be here anymore. Prince was the only reason I didn't so something stupid and irreversible. I couldn't leave this world and not be here to listen to the new music I knew would be coming. I thought it would be coming for so many more years. Like others, I pictured him making music well into his old old age.

>

I was blessed to see him in concert once. I was so hoping I would get at least one more chance but I know how lucky I am. I have friends who never got to see him perform in person.

>

Yes, we'll have his music to listen to for the rest of our lives. One of the things that's hardest for me is no more new music that HE releases. If there is new music it won't really be new will it?

>

I was at work yesterday when the news broke and at lunch when it was confirmed. I went through the rest of the day in a haze and took today off. I need time to spend with him filling my ears and eyes and heart.

>

I love you Prince, thank you for things I can't even put into words right now.

Yeah, I'm just not dealing with this. WTF! I imagined him living into his 70s, 80s, making tons more music. I don't know what to say, tears go here...

Same here.

I also imagined and the shows I will attend :/

Like many have already said, his music is part of the soundtrack of my life. He'll be missed

RIP Prince

CNN is about to air a press conference soon.

I don't know why I'm doing this but not everybody is feeling the love...

Let me strike a pose and take a crap on top of TMZ.

Mmff.. Aaaaahhhhh.

Feel Better. Feel Good. Forever In My Life.
