Thanks for posting! Even tho it's blurry, As a Minnesotan that was so cool to watch.

Eventually every cloud runs out of rain.

So sweet. It's interesting to compare this to other some other acceptance speeches of his I've seen. He's so happy and comfortable here, you can feel how much he loves Minnesota. heart

We all want the stuff that's found in our wildest dreams. . .

fun to watch. It still gives me a pang when he says, "this is the kind of thing you get when you're 65 and retiring." just knowing he wouldn't make it to 65...

He was so happy at that time. I wonder, if UTCM had been a hit and Crystal Ball had been released as a triple album, how that would have affected things. The Revolution eventually would have been dismissed, but I think the late 80s would have played out differently. Maybe not necessarily for the better, but differently for sure.

I particularly noticed that 1986 plaque when I visited Paisley Park in June 2002. It was hung in a prominent place at the entrance hallway on the right where his awards and timeline murals (left)were displayed. Watching the video now shows how much it meant to him.
