Do you want to go back? I've found myself searching for discussions pre 21 April on the Org just to try to remember the feeling of him still being around in a 'normal' way. The thing I'm finding difficult to deal with is reading the posts which relate to the fact that he's really gone. I don't think my mind has quite grasped the fact that we're now referring to Prince in the past tense and that he won't appear at another awards show or announce a new project - it seems like my life has now become split into before and after Prince and it's sad that I keep counting the days since the 21st April. I know he lives on in his music and it's great that there has been a renewed awareness of his gifts and contribution to world culture but life keeps going on and my life seems to have stopped on the 21st. Sorry if this post is depressing but I needed to get this off my chest. | |

It's weird because like today I was listening to HR2 in the car and thinking wow this is really a great album. I think I like all of the tracks. Maybe he's getting his groove back... Oh wait... There's no more groove. It's weird because it's not like I (we) saw him everyday so it's not like he was ever really here (if that makes sense) so it's not like I'll miss Sunday brunch with him. And we can always just listen to his music when we miss him, but it definitely feels different when that little voice says he's "gone"... It's very surreal. There hasn't been an artist who has passed in my lifetime that I've been so connected to and this is so strange to me. I'm so very sad and kinda angry about it. Not really angry at anyone in particular, just pi$$3d he went out so soon. I honestly haven't lost anyone I've ever felt so close to and I didn't even know him personally so it's just really surreal. I love listening to him right now but it's definitely different and I do want to go back to another time when he was so vibrant and doing his thang. This just sucks so bad. To be referring to him in past tense is beyond heartbreaking. Surprise, surprise.
Another treat. Another trick. | |

Oh and wait I didn't mean getting his groove back as if he lost it... I just really like the sound of HR2. Surprise, surprise.

I know exactly what you mean. There are no words, just gut feelings, a knot in the stomach, an ache in the heart... | |
