"Strollin'" from Diamonds and Pearls; on a side note, Wendy and Lisa's "Stay" and "Song About" have really had me choked up for the past few days.

Insatiable, Head, Do Me Baby - The dirty songs are comforting to me. I just think how much, a-hem, life Prince packed into his time with us.

.

Forever in Your Life, Starfish and Coffee, U're Gonna C Me (ONA version).

.

One I won't touch again for a while is Anotherloverholenyohead. That's the first song I heard after I found out. This is the one I scream-cried to in my car. It was a favorite. I'd like to come back to it eventually.

Earworm because I haven't listened to any music since it all happened:

My Computer - All she did was wonder/if the rumours are true/i said, "no, i'm not dead yet"/ what about you?"

For some reason I can't stop listening to Arms of Orion, even though the production is pretty gruesome and the whole thing had always previously sounded phoned-in and over polished. Now it just sounds really lovely.

The arms of Orion that's where I wanna be
Since U've been gone
I've been searching 4 a lover
In the Sea of Tranquility
I'm drowning without U here, my dear

Oddly enough, "Sometimes it Snows in April". As heartbreaking as it is to hear now, I can't stop listening for whatever reason. As well as Joy in Repetition (back and forth between the ONA version) and 17 Days.

Fathers song gives me comfort

yes me too. I used to be able to play that on the piano. It's the only song I could play. I'm going to try to learn it again.

Electric Intercourse because his voice is so heartfelt and passionate. The live recording of the final Atlanta show too because the crowd is having a blast.

I've always played Prince regularly, but since 21st I've been listening non-stop.

.

For me, the Most Beautiful Girl in the World stands out - many other tracks also do, but there is something about that song that sounds so special.

.

Maybe it is because Prince was truly free as he proved to Warners he could be a successful independent artist.

.

These were happy times back then.

Heaven (7:14)

Don't Talk 2 Strangers

On a slightly different note, I've not been able to listen to GOODBYE.

.

I'm totally avoiding that one for a little while yet.... but in time.

.

chorus from "diamonds and pearls"

"If I gave you diamonds and pearls
Would you be a happy boy or a girl
If I could I would give you the world
But all I can do is just offer you my love"

"U're Gonna C Me" was the first one I played after I heard the news and it's still comforting me now (even though, as a side note, I do not believe in an afterlife).

From the 84 birthday concert

Lotus Flow3er album. There is something ethereal on that album.

This is me. Non stop and mostly stuff I've ignored a lot in recent years. I'm playing the hell out of LotusFlower, like a didn't give it a chance the first time around...

WAY BACK HOME
