At least as long as James Brown... Sly Stone and Keith Richards are still here for fucks sake?!! "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

I knew it was going to happen one day, as it will to all of us. I just didn't know it would happen so soon. I just knew when it did happen, wherever I was, I was going to drop everything and just drive and blast his music. So that's what I did. | |

I kept everything I purchased Prince related, unless I had bought them as gifts obviously. But it was never with the thought that he would not be here, but rather because they were my momentos, things I could look at and remember those special times (not that he wouldn't be here, but that those moments were a sincere and magical part of my life). | |

No. Since we are close in age I thought we would still have another 20 years together. | |

Been a fam since going to the uk premier of purple rain my boyfriend worked for WB at that time I was 18. I always felt everytime someone big died in music, phew at least Prince will be ok because he doesnt do drugs or alcohol. I am still unconvinced on his drug issue. That said life without Prince truly sucks! Forever in my life 💜 | |

That's funny but I never thought about him dying. He seemed so healthy and in charge of his life. I figured he would slow down and retire one day, do a few farewell tours. I had hoped to see him one more time in concert. | |

No.
Not at all.
Still trying to process it over 2 months later. (Insert something clever here) |

No, not really.
I must say every now and then when a celebrity died i wondered if it would be any news at all when Prince would die. But that was assuming it would be somewhat further away in time....

I thought he would be around at least as long as I was...(he's 10 years older). However, the last show close to me was Baltimore in 2015. Though not a heavy fan of 3rd Eye I decided to go bc 'you don't know how long people will be around for'. So, we went...And I am glad I did.. | |

The thought did occur to me from time to time, but I NEVER remotely expected it to happen, and as untimely as it did. It STILL crushes me. I still find myself shaking my head, telling myself that it can't be true [Edited 7/6/16 8:59am] "I like to watch." | |

Yes, but not because of death. I figured he would retire way earlier than I wanted him to. | |

No, I guess I took it for granted that he would always be here with us, jamming. I'm in the news again
For paying dues my friend And not the type of ganda U prop up in my way Don't Play me | |

No. I'm 35 and honestly felt he'd probably outlive me. And I'm HEALTHY. It never crossed my mind. And it's a loss unlike any I've ever experienced... crazy as that sounds. I Love U, But I Don't Trust U Anymore... |

I used to be afraid of dying long before him and missing out on all the Princely goodness that I'd never get a chance to hear. | |

I actually thought I would be able to take my mother to see him in concert 😕 | |

No, always believed I would've taken my life way before he would ever go. Need me some fuzzy love....and yes, I wear clear heels | |

Honestly, this is a bit of a dehumanizing thing to do, but I immortalized Prince while he was alive. So, no, I never thought about Prince dying. I've never been so tragically wrong. | |

I never expected him to be gone so soon. I was looking forward, as well, to take my kids! My oldest daughter just turned 9, so I was thinking of taking her to a concert soon. Now after his death, I've been listening non-stop to all of his stuff and my yougest (just turning 3) is a mega fan of his music. LOL Ask her who her favorite singer is and she will say "Prince". Really wish I could have taken them live to see him in person
And maybe this sounds nieve, but I was kinda hoping that his theory of "not counting birthdays" was going to make him live longer. LOL It sure helped on his looks! "Put on your boots Alfred...let's go!" | |
