i was explaining to the 23 year old sitting next to me at work: it didn’t matter what you were “in to” - Mohawks or metal, Creepers or Reeboks, hip hop or industrial - unless you were dick - you knew that Prince (just like David Bowie) was the Real Deal.

  This!
  
  And if you were a dick you called Prince a “wannabe Michael Jackson.” There were always a couple of those idiots.
  
  But for the vast majority of us growing up in the 80's, Prince was a guitar god with both pop and rock sensibilities whose talent with a guitar transcended musical genre.

  Bowie was a real rapist of a 14-year-old, too. Scum.

Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
To get through this thing called life

Electric word life
It means forever and that’s a mighty long time
But I’m here to tell you
There’s something else
The after world

A world of never ending happiness
You can always see the sun, day or night

So when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills
You know the one, Dr. Everything’ll Be Alright
Instead of asking him how much of your time is left
Ask him how much of your mind, baby

‘Cause in this life
Things are much harder than in the after world
In this life
You’re on your own

And if the elevator tries to bring you down
Go crazy

I thought it was weird that they made an emergency landing for the flu. I wonder if he had cancer or something and he went into hospice.. but CNN is reporting the police are investigating. I was with a friend who is a musician when we saw it on the phone. We were in public and he completely freaked. People turned around. He said “All my musical idols are dying and they’re supposed to live forever.” It’s crazy.

  And he played a concert the day after the plane crash. It’s going to be interesting to find out what was happening. :(

I really feel bad for people that didn’t get to grow up during Prince’s prime, there truly was nothing like him. Here was a guy that was a combination of Little Richard, Hendrix and Stevie Wonder...but better! How many 17 year-old kids walk into Warner Bros. and demand they be allowed to write, produce, arrange and record an entire album themselves??! In junior high when 1999 came out, a double album was unheard of by someone with no real radio play up until then yet he broke down racial barriers becoming one of the first black video artists on MTV.

Fast forward to Purple Rain and I shit you not, you couldn’t escape his music. Every station from R&B to pop to rock had it in heavy rotation. Roller rinks would play random tracks and kids would go wild. I remember being in high school and hearing kids from every clique: jocks, nerds, head bangers, goths, preppies....all talking about this album like it was the Holy Grail! Here was a guy all of 5"2" wearing eye liner, frilly shirts, sequin trench coats and thigh high boots....and he was considered universally cool and sexy! Most people would be happy to have ONE great album, this guy had like 4. He has so many hits he needed OVER a double disc CD, heck two of his B-sides (Erotic City and 17 Days) would be superior to most one-hit wonders! The fact this guy only won 7 Grammys kills me, I mean Beyonce of all people has THREE TIMES as many! Here is a guy that writes, produces, arranges, records and plays over 27 (!) instruments...and has a third of the awards of someone who does NONE of the above!!

May U Live 2 See The Dawn

  The universality of Prince’s appeal was remarkable. I was in high school when Prince became known to the world, too, and regardless of our usual tastes, we all immediately recognized on hearing him that this was genuine greatness. Even the few who didn’t care for the work still understood that he was incredibly talented, and thought he was cool personally.

  Back then it literally did not matter what kind of music you liked. You HAD to admit he was a genius.

I’m just going to keep telling myself that he’s not dead, but that David Bowie came back for him in his spaceship, and that they’re off to blow minds across the universe.
