Yeah, I heard that too, all over AOA. Later, in Black Muse, I hear remission. But I guess it didn't last. Yes, it's just a guess, but... broken
What exactly is the song June portraying? I read the lyrics over a few times and don't get it. Also in his lyrics "Our bodies got used to each other Now they're used to the sound of Richie Havens' voice on the vinyl, spinning round and round, round and round" Richie Havens has a song called Freedom with similar lyrics to the song Prince played on the first piano and a microphone night "Motherless Child" "Sometimes I feel like a motherless child" Is this just a coincidence? The Motherless Child song to "Richie Havens on vinyl, spinning round and round, round and round"? He played this first I believe May 22nd, 1999 and talks about him being 12 years old,and his mom putting him out on the streets... Am I stretching?

I always thought too that motherless child was based on his issues with his mother. Unfortinutely it is common for women to chose some sorry man over her children well being and boy I got horrid stories on this issue.

Prince had reminded us (those who followed him closely) listen to the lyrics because you get to know more about him.

Furthermore to all this what was Tyka thinking. I think she just meant prince believed his job was dine n that's when god takes you. I think he's wrong but I suspect that's his spiritual take. However if she had any brain she should have realised that such a broad statement without clarity would open a can of worms. This issue had been laid to rest in the main. She has done prince n his legacy no favours. This will just be a distraction from the greatness he brought. It doesn't bode well that such a stupid person has such say in prince's legacy

So it is better for his legacy for people to think he was a drug addict brick



Don't be si fucking facetious. My point was nobody in the main gave a shit anymore n she's put it right back on the table. And to be fair a lot if people had empathy for what you're calling drug addiction because it was pain relief. Coz gobshite even if something else is exposed the fact still remains he was addicted to these meds. So that's not gonna go away regardless.

So yeh if i had to choose yeh I would prefer that

--- Any given day you can Goggle Prince and find articles about him and drugs and I don't see empathy because that does get clicks. Those articles are not going away unless more information about his health becomes available. No idiot in the earth is going to see him as a hopeless and lazy dope fiend if they knew he was facing medical issues. In addition, if it is the truth what is wrong with putting it there?

Since we have not been asked whether we want to be here or not, I think we should at least get to decide about our own fate so whatever Prince decided and did, it was his decision and no-one elses, no matter what others might think.

I wonder how close he really was with Tyka. I wouldn't be surprised if not as close as she wants people to think. If I died suddenly in such circumstances, I have no doubt in my mind that my closest relatives (like a sibling) would claim they were really close to me and basically knew what I was thinking etc. Which would not be true but how could I say it's not since I would be gone. They would also love to be in the public eye, no doubt.

She seems very sure of herself and a bit secretive. I can't really figure her out. With Prince I sort of did because I'm similarly "different" in a lot of ways. I won't go into it because who cares about me but he just seemed sensitive and sincere where as she is... An enigma. There's something evil in that look but I hope it's nothing. I hope this is not a case of less talented sibling riding the coat tails of the talented one. Forgive me if I'm reading too much into this.

It makes no sense to me why Prince didn't leave a will other than that artistic types like him don't feel like doing all the exhausting paperwork it requires. "I'll do it tomorrow..." No matter how ill you'd be, you always feel like postponing the things you don't really want to do.

No offense but can some of you guys take the non-topic drama via orgnotes this is a good thread and I hate to see it get close as we are all adding and trying to make sense of what happened. And also just ignore the trolls because I know it is hard and I wish the org has an option to put trolls on ignore list.

But yeah I wouldn't be suprise if some of her siblings as well are going to start reveal more as the time comes.

i've been thinking about this all night sad what seems most 'logical' to me at the moment is
that he probably took pain meds for his hips/joints. when docs told him it was taking a toll
on his body (esp the liver) he weighed his options and had some form of surgery (hence a
scar on his leg per the autopsy). surgery probably didn't help (enough) and so he had to
either continue taking pain meds or even take more. meanwhile the liver can't process the
meds anymore and gets damaged even more.
what might have happened then is that he got sick, went to see someone and they told
him his liver was so beat up at that point that he needed to stop pain meds immediately
and maybe even have to go on a list for a transplant.
knowing what we (think) we know, prince would not have gone for such invasive surgery
and thus either tried to find alternative ways to relieve his pain, which didn't help, and in
addition to his 'regular' constant pain for which he started taking meds, he now had this
additional discomfort/pain from developing/worsening liver issues.
which also makes it a whole lot easier to od by accident because an ill functioning liver is
not able to filter and process all those chemicals anymore.
so he might have known he had little time, and accepted it, rather than go for surgery.
which is why he may have been preparing things like the book, doing that farewell tour
(and apparently planning a paisley park residency after that, where he didn't have to go
travelling around the world but could do shows once in a while at home, sitting at his
piano), reaching out to former associates and just in general making reparations and
preparations. like talking to people about making paisley park into a museum and there
must have been plans in his head for the vault and other stuff, like a will perhaps but if
he thought he had more time and things spiralled out of control very quickly after he had
the incident on the plane...
seems like he tried desperately to make sure people thought he was ok after that and we
read that he was up for like 4 days the last few days of his life. probably trying to finish
a lot of stuff in a mad dash to complete as much as what he wanted to, figuring his time
could be shorter than previously imagined.
so he's at home, ill, fatigued, working way too hard to get things done, sending everyone
away so there'd be no distractions or people telling him 'what to do', not eating enough,
probably not drinking enoug either (there were reports of dehydration a few times?) and
then after all that ruckus took another pill and it went horribly wrong.
remains the question why was this pill so strong and laced with something so heavy?
was he aware they were that heavy and was his pain so bad at that point, where he'd
take the risk, thinking it would be ok, but his liver just couldn't handle it? or did someone
get him something that they shouldn't have and nobody knew exactly what was in that
pill?
to me that seems like what might have happened but the story might be something else
completely.
just saying, you don't have to be so sick you can't function before you die from a terminal
condition. especially in those cases it might be very hard to estimate how much time you
have left. my godmother was terminal, they told her she had roughly a year left. then all
of a sudden after new tests they told her six months. i went to visit her with my dad and
she seemed 'fine', looked ok, we talked, we laughed, and then we went home. three hours
later my dad calls me and tells me she's gone. sad
ugh, i should not get myself worked up like this. it's just ranting and trying to work out
what would 'fit' as a scenario. but what's the point. we won't know until the family or a
very close friend speaks out on it. i just hope he didn't have any pain in those last few
moments and was in an ok state of mind/peaceful.



Much appreciated, IstenSzek.

Really thoughtful stuff, as usual.

Nursev is ok. She's here and present on this thread as DiamondsnPearls.
