. Same here. I check the Star Tribune for news/updates on Prince, because they are from Minneapolis and the only source of news I trust. If you go to the Star Tribune, and search "Prince", they have all the updates.

. Although most of us never knew Prince on a personal level, we were deeply touched by his music and his influence around the world in pop culture. Also he cared deeply about the world and was a great humanitarian. . We all have our faults, as we are only human. I don't think Prince ever intended for this to happen. He was in pain and maybe thought he could heal himself? God only knows.

I'm listening to loads of his music and feel a greater sense of loss thus far. It's bizarre. I think it's because I haven't sat down in such a concentrated way since his passing. Listening to his voice is really upsetting me. | |

I still occasionally nod my head in disbelief. It's the worse I've felt about the death of someone I did not know personally. Although not old, it feels as though he died younger than he did - partly because he was still in his prime as a live performer, I suppose. | |

The biggest mind-fuck of all is that he was alive and performing as recently as 1 week before he died. And, from many reports, was at the very top of his game. |

He's got a point. Seems rather silly 2 me 2 expect all these different people 2 have one homogeneous opinion. Getting along isn't synonymous with having only one opinion amongst the group. People can respect differing opinions. What's not acceptable to a lot of fans are members who constantly degrade Prince's family, the managers of his estate, and associates by taking a negative stance towards anything these groups of people try to do. Then they justify their complaining by reminding everyone they are the only true fans because they are watching out for Prince even now that he's gone. As if they know his true thoughts and feelings about any of the matters they take hombrage to. And they berate and belittle other members here who do support efforts to keep his memory alive, especially if they are new members. They bemoan Prince's legacy being reduced to "drug addict" yet these members are the only individuals I've ever noted applying that label to Prince. Things that make you go hmmmm It's a hurtful place, the world, in and of itself. We don't need to add to it. We all need one another. ~ PRN | |

One of the most beautiful songs ever written, and most beautiful voice; "I Love You", by Sarah McLachlan. I miss you, Prince & I dedicate this song to you....... . . I have a smile

I'm at the disbelief/denial stage. Disbelief at the sheer lunacy posted on the Prince's Death: Informatio...; Theories thread. The world's problems like climate change can only be solved through strategic long-term thinking, not expediency. In other words all the govts. need sacking!
If you can add value to someone's life then why not. Especially if it colors their days... | |

Things that make you go hmmmm People DON'T respect different opinions tho do they. Like 3EB said, they tend 2 like 2 tell peep what's right/wrong, rather than accepting the fact humans have different opinions. U know what makes me go hmmmmm? The shit that's going on in the world right now. I really ain't got time 2 get over emotional over someone's opinion on mayte, mani or who the fuck eles right now.

You know this is so sad when people are online keeping up bullshit insinuating shit about other people.

3rdeyeboy said: for some reason (and I can't fathom why), there was an influx of new fams post April 16, who feel its more important to tell fans what is right/wrong, rather than accept its an opinion contrary to their own. Couple that with their idolisation threads (masked guilt for being a fairweather fan), and very quickly, a long running community becomes damaged.
