This is one of my favorite clips. Prince was so special. His passing is still so hard to fathom. He radiates such a beautiful spirit. Thanks for sharing this gift. | |

It still doesn't seem real to me, but then something will happen to remind me, and I cry all over again. This week, I was attending a meeting and a couple of the people that were at the meeting were in the training class I was giving when I received the news. They came up to me and gave me hugs and told me they'd never forget that moment or how I looked in that moment, nor the fact that I started the training class that very day by playing them "Black Sweat" from the Atlanta concert and two other Prince songs, which I'd never done in any training class before (or since). We'd been up dancing and singing along with Prince at the start of that training, only to have my class interrupted an hour or so later with the news. These two women hugged me and I broke down and started crying because seeing and talking with them just reminded me of that moment all over again. | |

Im not sure how comforting it is, but I really believe that Prince performed, wrote, played, and created with the idea the he wouldn't be here forever. By that I mean thatm when you see him put his hand on his heart and smile sheepishly, he knew what he was doing. He knew that the art of his life would live forever and someday he wouldnt be able to do that again. I believe Prince knew his role in pop culture, his role in music, and more inmportantly, he knew how deeply he would connect. I don't know when he realized that his music would outlive him, but I think that sometime after AtWiAD he currated moments for us to anchor on. Moments he knew would be recognized. | |

I completely agree. He said that he didn't know if he would make it to 60, and he talked about others someday releasing the vault music. He also said recently that he already had his legacy and for him it was now about younger artists. Prince was very wise and knew he wouldn't be here forever (none of us will be) and he was very courageous and I believe unafraid to die. He also loved a lot of people at once and I think needed a lot of love back. I think that's where the great back and forth came from between him and us and everyone in his personal life too. He was love. I think he also knew that he would have to put up with criticism and being misunderstood for a bigger purpose after his passing. The messages that his life would spell out. It was very unselfish of him. And he succeeded (big smile goes here). | |

I didn't think about it at the time he said it, but the other day I thought about the 2010 BET awards when he was accepting the lifetime achievement award and the part when he said "the future is in good hands" I didn't think at the time that he would leave us a little under 6 years later. One thing I am glad about is that people gave him his flowers while he was living and that's a beautiful thing. Tina Knowles was right when she was accepting one of Beyonce's awards at this year's BET awards, but I think Prince was an exception. People showed him alot of love while he was still here. | |

Purple Rain was on MTV tonight. Reminded me how much I will miss his joy and magic. So glad I was able to witness it while he was here. | |

Really miss his humor. And you always knew when he was tweeting from Paisley as it would say from Chanhassen.

great footage from Malahide, Dublin. i live just 5 minutes from the park. It was my 30th+ concert and my wife and i joke that Prince came to our patch for a gig. Ireland & Prince had a great relationship. He was loved across the nation. And here is some trivia...every single from 84 to 94 went top 10, probably more than any other country in the world... but i stand corrected on that. Missing you PRINCE. ONLY LOVE CAN HURT LIKE THIS

Every now and then I get into Prince-watching binges, and when I've gone through all the videos I can, it hits me that he's gone. I miss him so much. More than I ever thought I could possibly miss a celebrity.
