All of these are somewhere on this forum, but I don't remember if anyone caught this comment by Prince on creativity--

“You reach a plane of creativity and inspiration. A plane where every song that has ever existed and every song that will exist in the future is right there in front of you. And you just go with it for as long as it takes. Like tonight. You can tell me I was onstage for four hours, but it doesn’t feel like that to me. We were all out of body out there. Sometimes it isn’t until we’re in the car after a jam where I feel my leg tighten up. And then I’m not out of body anymore.”

2014, he mentions his leg.

It is an insightful interview where he talks about time, about swearing and the evolution of his music. He talks about his need to keep things fresh and how hard it was to do the Purple Rain tour because it was the same thing, show after show. He talks about supporting youth and expansion.

And forgive me (or lock this) if a repeat. It is so good it needs another look-see.

Great to read this excellent article again, thank you for posting it.
