Prince Dead at 57

[Renae]

Chyna, Prince back to back
I guess Weird Al will never get Prince's permission to parody his songs..

Bode aka Hairy Back is lurking...I smell dead carp.

God save the Queen!

Selfish self aggrandizing old hag, who does not give a shit about his son.

huh?

If QEII were not a self serving self aggrandizing old hag, she would have abdicated and her son would have been King Charles at least 40 years ago.

PS I meant to say HER son.

At this point, Charles isn't eligible for the throne anymore, having married a divorcee. The Queen should abdicate immediately in favor of William and Kate. They are very popular.

That's why I said 40 years ago. And since the King of England is also the Head of the Anglican Church, he would have changed that ancient law and married anyone he damn well pleased.

Nonetheless, the Queen is a selfish and miserable old hag who does not give shit about her male descendants. Or even about her dotty, doddering and demented husband, Prince Philip.

I danced with lady's of the 80's to his music. to young RIP

 

[The VOR]

I liked his music

Yeah. It's just the color of his skin you hated.

 

[Pop23]

Was lucky enough to see him live 4 times. Twice before he hit the big time. Even then it was obvious he was going to be a huge hit.

His presence on this earth will be dearly missed.

Even aristocrats die eventually. RIP.

Now, if only Queen Elizabeth would take note and let her son be what he was supposed to be.

What's he supposed to be?

The last two King Charles weren't exactly high points in the monarchy. I can't imagine Charles III will somehow be any better.

So let me guess, you're going to call him stupid, right ?

Let's see now. Not availing yourself of medial technology that could save your life because your whacky cult interprets a 3000 year old book of superstitions a certain way...

Um... yeah, that's stupid.

I really didn't care enough about his music to be that upset about it,though. I thought he was overrated.

You are a racist moron.

 

[Kat]

Darn. Shocking! RIP

 

[boedicca]

Prince was a musical genius.

So sad that he died young.​

I liked his music

Got to admit (and RIP) but I never quite "got" his music. Guess I'm far to much into "old school" Motown....

I would like to put up a link for Prince with Third Eye Girl live on Jimmy Fallon 2013. But it seems NBC has blocked images due to some sort of copyright thing. Maybe now that Prince is dead they can release their internet hold on this great performance of two songs live. I will still search for a link. Had one at one time.
R.I.P.

If I had said what SassyIrishLass said, you probably would have said the same thing to me. I did not say what she said, because I was never interested in any rock and roll after the Rolling Stones killed that genre, so I never listened, liked or not liked Prince.

But I would have told you that I loved the music of Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole, Johnny Mathis, Nancy Wilson, Dinah Washington, Sarah Vaughn, Louis Armstrong, Miles Davis, Duke Ellington, Jesse Norman, Paul Robeson, and many, many other African American artists, some of them you probably never heard of.

It takes an ignorant liberal to generalize and divide by skin color, gender, ability and any other excuse to divide by.

God, I LOVED Satchmo....Miles Davis was the bomb! Sarah Vaughn? Now you're talking!! Johnny Mathis had the smoothest voice I have ever heard. I actually cried when Motown went under. However, I also loved to listen to Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, and a host of white performers. Shoot, I even got into rock for a while - still love it. All time favorite, though? Charlie Parker!!

 

[JOSweetHeart]

Holy shit !!
Another huge one !

This is becoming a watershed year for deaths in the rock world.

RIP

Not just rock music, but for all music period. Its only been two weeks now since we lost country music legend Merle Haggard and his going forward took place on his own birthday of all days!

God bless you and his family and Prince's family always!!!

Holly

P.S. We still have eight months of this year in front of us. I can't help but wonder who else will go forward before its end.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Man, this really has been a streak of late. Bowie, Lou Reed, Glenn Frey, Lemmy, Keith Emerson, on and on....

Prince was as brilliant as any of them.
.

dont forget Chyna.....

She picked the wrong day to die, it's going to be wall to wall Prince for a couple days.

You are my kind of guy, RandallFlagg!
