Prince because my favorite artist of all time from the first moment I heard his music back in 1980. While I believe he was a good guitarist at first who became great, I don’t think he is the greatest ever. Saying who that really is, is a tough thing to begin with. I think he deserves to be in the conversation again because of how great I think he became over the years.

@@WeTheWounded It was acutally the morning of the superbowl he had that conversation. But i agree, what a perfromance! Him slowly getting the crowd onside, for what is up there as one of the greatest sing backs of all time. Best superbowl performance of all time for sure.

This song came up on KZread in 2016 when he died. And i was in a severe heavy depression. took me 5 years . But this song went through the core of my being. And cried buckets of tears. The guitar solo man oh man. Out off this world. He has not a clue what he did for me. I played him Purple. Day in day out. I love you Prince and i always will. 8 years today. RIP.

Today is 03/16/24. Almost 40 years to the day of this performance. I remember it like it was yesterday, I was 10 years old. My sister won tickets to this show on the radio and she chose me to go with her. It was pure magic. There was so much love and emotion in that stadium it was absolutely amazing. There were no wars, no fights, no bickering or arguing amongst anyone, nothing but love... No other artist brought so many people of so many different cultures together like Prince did... You will forever be missed Prince Rogers Nelson

As a Musician I love metal and all the music forms and I especially enjoy listening and playing with metal heads. I also love drinking and smoking with yall in convo where alot of you say things like what you stated. Because I always wonder what fan of a certain subgenre will think of "this" or "that". In this case, what a metal fan thinks of Prince. As far as musicianship goes, Prince is an above average standard. Alot of us can play more than 1 instrument but to do it on the level of Prince......even RARER.

Prince was an amazing singer, composer, instrumentalist, and dancer. A true musical genius.

Una melodía xcelente k terapia

Purple. Blue, mixed with red. The colors of the soul. Anguish, pain, pure love, remembrance. Transportative love. Gone planetary. It’s other worldly. Soul food. Soul nourishing. Soul purpose. Soul soup. pure bliss, mixed with so much sadness. This is life’s entire essence and the only answer to what us humans call life. ☀️🙏☀️

@@herminasonnemans9152 It just warms my heart to read this. Yesterday, when I came back to my home, an older gentleman stood by the electric-fixture box, that are placed next to the apartment door. I asked him if he needed a glass of water, but he declined. He said, that he just wanted a break, carrying his grocery bag home. I asked if I could help him and he was a bit hesitant at first, but gave in. When we walked, he told me, that he was 93 years old. He's doing all the house chores, he has a small garden that are kept pristine. Buying groceries are hard for him because he has to carry things home, so I plan on buying him a grocery caddy. Age is just a number, not a state of mind ❤ Take care and say hi to your mom from me!
