I wonder what happened to him - was he alone? Was someone taking care of him? It just breaks my heart - I hope someone was with him, making sure he was hydrated, taking care of him. I guess it will be a while before we know - and we may not know the real deal.

The world has suffered a loss for sure - he was amazing! The first time I heard him - I think it was I Would Die 4 U - I was in love. He just got better and better. And he just pushed it - you could count on him to make it interesting. And the sexuality - oh my goodness - does anyone do it better (well since Barry White, anyway)? One of my favorite bad boy Prince songs is 22 Positions. I cannot sit still when I hear it. What a legacy he leaves.
The call to 911 suggests that he was not alone.

I just bought movie tickets to see Purple Rain in the theater!!!!! Looks like a bunch of theaters nationwide are going to show the film for a few days starting tomorrow thru the middle of next week. I hope every single show sells out!!! Please go and see Prince at his finest!!!

Sweetheart, that song is called Gett Off and it's one of his best songs ever. Did you see him perform it at the MTV music awards when he wore that bright yellow outfit with the butt cheeks cut out? Man, the crowd went wild when he turned around and showed the world his *ss!!!!! The Fox comedy show In Living Color had a field day with that!! 'Prince has got a hairy butt!!' ;-D

Gan! He was so super effing cool! I have not seen it but I'm going to find it on youtube. I have 5 CDs in my car (Yes, I'm a dinosaur - no ipod or gadget for me) that I rotate all the time and one of them is Prince - one of his Best of and Get Off is on it (no, I didn't know the name). If I'm having a blah moment, it's always the Prince CD that perks me up, gets me moving, reminds me of being a teenager. I know this is a blow for you! Peace, friend.

He was sleeping and dreaming and did not wake up.
That's a lovely thought. I hope that's how it was for him.

You need to search out the long version of Gett Off!!! It's so, well...... Prince! ;-D There is a cd that has a bunch of different versions on it with the long one and you'll also get to hear 'Violet The Organ Grinder'!!! :O_O: ;;D=D There was a video that was released also that had almost all of the songs from this cd with videos to go along with them. Imagine Prince wearing a Speedo with suspenders attached to them. Sure, it sounds stupid but he makes it work!!
