Prince's song ''Free'' didn't realize...

Didn't realize who his muse was for this one..like the song Free so much, from the album 1999. Also, he changed the words for my other all time favorite song The Beautiful Ones for a tribute to Vanity..... This is from memoirs of an urban gentleman website.

Thanks, I most definately want to hear these shows. My cousin went and raved about how Prince was so candid and tender towards her.

Keep Calm & Listen To Prince

From everything i have read..it was emotional and really difficult for him, to the point he had to sort of appologize for the tough time he was having keeping his focus after he was told about her passing sad

Did Vanity really do vocals on the 1999 album? Never heard that before.

She apparently was his ''muse'' not to mention pretty involved in the recording of many of those songs on 1999..she was also again, his muse and involved in the writing/recording/making of the movie Purple Rain until she left Prince half way through production for her solo deal with Motown Records and Berry Gordy.

I read on here somewhere she was also supposed to play Mary Magadlene in the Last Temptation of Christ but the movie got pushed back 3 years. But that was an even bigger reason why she left... Not sure how true that is.

Her passing broke his heart. It's really too bad they never got back together. I saw some pics of her as a grown woman and they would have made a real classy pair.
Surprise, surprise.
Another treat. Another trick.
