It's a hurtful place, the world, in and of itself. We don't need to add to it. We all need one another. ~ PRN

I counted 17 song titles not including when a song was repeated and not including when you started a title but didn't finish it.
Very nice way to express yourself. I appreciate your hard work. Peace and love, purple brother.
I wish u heaven

I thought it was good. It took time to put all that together, give him credit.
Everybody here has done something in some kind of way to pay tribute since Prince passed. Im sure he was looking for kinder words, at least here where we all share appreciation for the same Prince.

The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.

Remember there is only one destination and that place is U
All of it. Everything. Is U.

It reminded me of a poem I wrote my wife when we were young( and still married).
I put a poem of our lives together using all Prince songs/lyrics/album titles.
I signed it with my version of prince's love symbol. I offset the upper circle to the right and made the arrow shaft longer and flared at the top. It made a P shaped symbol. My wife loved it and kept it until it was lost in a flood.
I'm sure my in laws thought I was crazy when I wrote it. Prince's music was the soundtrack to my life back then.

It took a great deal of time but if it made one person smile it was truly worth the effort. It was my way of saying good bye but never ever forgetting him.

Your are most welcomed!!! I will try to post the lyrics soon. It was also my way of bringing attention to his music and songs that most had not heard.

And here I thought this thread was a delicious reference to Jim Jones.

Nicely put.
I just started learning to play guitar 2 months before he passed, after that I just want to learn his music even more. He did say he wished more people learned to play instruments and I believe he loved people being able to express themselves

Some people can be way too harsh. It honestly makes me despair.

You did a great job, tharrowp. I think it makes a nice tribute.
