Honestly, for all the pomp and circumstance, represented in the receiving of these awards and what they mean towards the careers of the recipients. The awards themselves, really aren't all that. I've personally held an AMA and a Grammy in my hands. And as beautiful as they are made to look on TV for the award shows, I can flat out tell you that they are not made of crystal nor gold.

So I understand how they can just end up in an auction.

I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart.

I asked Prince what he was planning to do. He told me , I'm going to look for the ladder. I asked him what that meant. All he said was, sometimes it snows in April. - book D.M.S.R.

perhaps Tyka, a seat has been reserved for her, so there is a good chance he will win.

I hope the Grammy Awards do something to honor Prince.

I know people here hate TMZ, but TMZ says it's a done deal. Prince has won. That is why the family is showing up. Apparently, the winners are notified ahead of time.

TMZ is saying that Tyka and the family will be at the AMAs, in spite of their "bickering".

.

According to Tyka, the family is not fighting at all.

.

.

Personally, I don't know if I can even watch the AMAs tonight -- it's just too sad for me. I think it's wonderful, but these award shows are nothing but satanic rituals anymore, and I'm not supporting that crap.

.

I know Prince understands.

Nice to see people standing and showing some respect...so happy he won!!! Great to see Tyka accept on his behalf... it was definitely emotional!! By the way, 984 and counting... I would love to see that list (I have never counted up all the songs on princevault, but I am assuming they don't add up to 984)...

Her speech was great. I got teary eyed when she raised the award to heaven and told Prince the award will go to Paisley Park. I recorded video from my cell phone but don't know how to load here. It is on Facebook, Prince.org, under a photo of Tyka, in the comments.

She is right about the song count. It took 5 hours to sing most of Princes hits at the Tribute concert.

Also loved her speech. It was passionate, classy, not too religious, inclusive, heartfelt, emotional (she cried at the end) and even poetic. I was impressed.

"Prince defied the odds. A black teen from Minneapolis with a goal to electrify the world. He had the courage to be different. With his vision, and God-given talent, he is STILL one of the world's most respected and loved artists. What he told me, was that he wanted to be known as the world's most prolific songwriter. And with 984 titles to his credit and counting, he has done just that. In the words of Prince, 'With love, honor, and respect for every living thing in the universe, separation ceases. And we all become one being, singing one song.' On behalf of Prince, our wonderful friend, teacher and brother - I humbly accept this award. And me, my brother Omar, my brother Alfred, my sister Sharon, my sister Noreen, and my brother John, we'll keep this for you at Paisley Park. Until we see you again, this is for you."

Well, I told myself that I wasn't going to watch the AMAs, but I only did it to honor PRINCE!! I thought Tyka's speech was beautiful, and I was really touched by her words.

.

When she said: "In the words of Prince, โ€˜With love, honor, and respect for every living thing in the universe, separation ceases, and we all become one being, singing one song.โ€™ ---- That had me in tears!! cry cry cry cry cry OH LORD!! Pass me the tissue!! cry cry cry cry cry
