From an article in the Baltimore Sun about Steve Parke's run as Prince's art director. Many of these I hadn't seen. And I am floored by the photos whee it shows his bare feet!! No idea why that's so delightful. And finally - the chair in one of the barefoot pics - isn't that the same one that is in the Black Sweat video?

so i gather he IS/WAS the most photogenic rock star ever???

Yes I can see what you mean, not sure what it could have been from though...

Glad we're on the same page!

Not sure why I'm so emotional today. I watched one video and all the tears came back. I guess some days it hits harder than others. Really missing him right now

I am with you, leslievette. I think with every passing day, his presence becomes all the more real and his absence all the more painful. That the man was so amazing that he could reach out to us all and fill us with divinity is all the proof that what he said was true: the only love there is, is the love we make. Even in tears, he is with us. Every night, I say a prayer for him, for gracing us with his presence on this planet, and thank him for being there with us in our worst and best times. In life, so many people come and go, but that he has stayed and always will, that is the best relationship we ever will have with another human being. I hope you hurt less and if the tears come, they are ones of infinite joy at witnessing the miracle called Prince.

Thank you so much for your words, they came at the right time. That is all so true. I was just listening to him and I was thinking of how ironic it is that somehow I feel closer to him now more than ever, even though it hurts so much. With a spirit like his there's no way he could really leave us. The physical aspect of it is what's still devastating.

"That the man was so amazing that he could reach out to us all and fill us with divinity"

This is exactly what I've been trying to express in my thoughts. You've said it so succinctly, so profoundly. Yes, this is what our hearts experience with him, bless you and thank you.

Thank you everyone for all the pics and your efforts to post them daily. Truly appreciated. Namaste

We all need blessings at this time, the entire Prince fam, to overcome our grief and celebrate Prince. I wish this thread to never cease to grow. It brings smiles to our faces when we see a new upload here. All of you, wherever you are, whoever you are, whatever be the station and circumstances in your lives, I am extremely grateful that I have him through you, your pictures and your words. Prince may or may not know we love him, but because he is made of the same stardust that we all are, whatever form he exists in now, that form sure shares some atoms with us. And that one fact will never separate us from him, even when he is gone, when we will be gone.
