I agree, I have watched them as they are not long. I still have not listened to the audio of the Atlanta shows though, but intend to soon as I think I may be almost able to cope with that now. But yes, it is so so sad to see Purple Rain from Atlanta and the other little clips Thank you Prince for every note you left behind 💜 | |

If your prone to being emotional i would leave those Atlanta concerts for a while. Well for me it's still hard to watch them.I finally decided to watch one of them about a week ago, kinda wish I hadn't. He looked so frail but you could tell he was still trying. [Edited 7/17/16 14:50pm] | |

I caught a video from it on Instagram before it was removed where he does 'Nothing Compares 2 U'. The lyric change he did literally killed my heart. "I went to the doctor and guess what he told me? He said, 'Prince you need to have fun no matter what you dooooo'".  | |

Yeah that made me cry too..so he told us, but we didnt catch it. When I was listening to him sing Waiting in Vain one of the ladies in the crowd said he was about to make her cry. So Im sure the audience felt it too | |

Two things stand out for me. First, he played and sounded so good to be someone who was hours away from a near death experience and days away from death. He had so much more left to give. Lastly, when he looked to the sky after the final note of Purple Rain it was chilling. He always acknowledges the man above, but this one was different. | |

His voice was beautiful til the end...definitely didnt sound like he was sick | |

All that magic just gone. 3 months...next to 30 odd years...big loss, don't know I'll ever get used 2 his absence, but like my other big loses I'll probably assimilate the gap/space/hole or whatever u wanna call that feeling "We just let people talk & say whatever they want 2 say. 9 times out of 10, trust me, what's out there now, I wouldn't give nary one of these folks the time of day.

It's not the same. I haven't been able 2 verbalise it...& people would prob get the wrong idea if I tried 2.

People can be incredibly insensitive when you're grieving family, so I didn't have much hope 4 sensitivity with P. A little slips out known again, but I cut myself short coz it's profound, & it somehow cheapened it or something.

I just dont talk about it anymore to regular everyday folks...most of them thought that Prince stopped recording after PR anyway so their opinion means squat to me | |

I've never been interested in chattin bout P with em either. Friends & fam always knew of my love 4 P, but really i kinda kept him 2 myself.
