Any other Prince fans feel like they need a huge hug right now?

sad I just feel like I need to tell all you Prince orgers out there that I love you. and I know that you must be feeling like the world has come crumbling down. I know I do. I'm not a big poster but this has hit me like a ton of bricks. Today was my 22nd birthday, I never expected my favourite artist would have died today. I still can't think straight.

I just want to tell everyone here that they are all amazing and everyone here deserves a HUGE HUG right now. I love you ORG. Please keep it together, I know its been a strange night. sad

I'm sorry. I just want to tell you, as a Prince fan, we're all in this together. Everyone here deserves a huge hug. I still can't register this news. sad

I hope NO ONE on this forum makes any drastic decisions. I know it feels like the world has come crumbling down. But we'll always have his music. Stay strong fellow orgers.

So sad, depressing. But have hope guys, he believed in more to life, he'd want you to enjoy the art he gave the world. He lives on eternally! I just hope he went peacefully.

Thank you PRINCE!

I am completely numb right now. I came home and literally cried. I feel like something that has been an integral part of my life for a very, very long time is now gone forever. My only solace has been to listen to "Way Back Home". The suddenness with which this happened...after seeing the pic of him with the new guitar and saying that he was going to hold off on playing it to focus on the piano, wondering what it would sould like when he finally played it, to getting a call from my wife while at work to tell me the news...maybe he wasn't from this time and space and is now where he is supposed to be. There will literally never be another like him. RIP, Prince. Your unwordly talents have literally helped me know who I am today.

Hugs back at ya.

Just under 14 years ago, this was the man whose music drew me to this site. Even though I don't come to the .org as much as I used to, my love and respect for orgers past and present still remains. R.I.H. to the Purple One.

I would love to give some hugs. But today, I am deep on the list of those of us that could use a hug. A hug that doesn't try to tell me its all going to be alright. But just a hug that says, we will see, AND HEAR, each other again some day. Some day.

I feel like I lost a close relative or something. Still just so shocked. It took a few hours before I could even listen to the music.

I have been crying off and on the last few hours. I have been in shock and numb and heartbroken. I feel like I lost a loved one; his music has filled my life all these years-- through the good times and the bad. And he is/was loved-- and I hope Prince knew that before his last breath. Never thought it would happen this soon and so sudden. My family and friends have reached out to me knowing I'm the biggest Prince fan they know, which I appreciate, but it still hurts knowing Prince is gone forever. So long Prince...u may b gone but u will remain...4ever in my life. sad

Yes,it is absolutly unbelievable. Been listening to Prince since I was 13 and now 47. He is/was literally the soundtrack to my life. Tears all day - music blasting - I can't bear to look at a headline with a the years.

Trying to get fans in Seattle together. Any suggestions or recommendations? Thanks for this forum.

Love to everyone... the world is raining right now in Purple tears... someone wrote a while ago they hoped they would die first so they wouldn't have to experience Prince's death. I understood what they meant. It's all too surreal.

.

Something does not compute. April 7 sick with flu, April 14 bounce back with a visit to hospital and emergency landing. The revelation of the Third Eye, the not touching even his new guitar. "Wait a day or two before you waste your prayers" and now 21 April Prince is hot here with us in body. Breathing like we do. In his Paisley Park elevator all alone... working early on the morning on the release of the Atlanta show for us?

.

I just feel dead inside and this place will be my home for healing in the next months.... Thank you Ben and the org for everything. For being here... and everyone for your understanding. And this thread... I feel so lost. Not even music can take away this feeling of grief.

I need a hug. I never thought I could feel like this for someone I've never met. And a hug back to all of you, beautiful purple people.

Not posted on here in two years but so many people expressing exactly how I feel - numb, shocked, in grief, tearful, almost confused over feeling like this over someone I've never met, like a relative dying, Ican't listen to the music without welling up.


I really just can't believe it. Even around the world, I know its probably the emotions, but it feels bigger than Bowie - possibly because Prince was younger so it feels more unfair, and it's easier to express a tribute with the colour purple, as daft as it sounds.

I know in a few weeks I'll feel better but right now I just can't bear it.
