Groovychook Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Just heard the news I'd heard that he'd had to cancel a few shows recently but so shocked to hear that he has died This is just getting weird now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 I agree it is weird. If you are a certain age like me 50ish it's getting seriously worrying. All the people you know and grew up listening/ watching etc are dying like flies. Sad to say I think poor Brucie will be next. RIP Prince loved Purple Rain.

Grandmashazzie Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Ditto above. I just loved nothing compares to u written for Sinead O Conor. Sieze the moment and enjoy each day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatieB Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 So so sad. Me and hubby went to see him in a relatively small venue and were near the front. He was such a show man. Brilliant evening and he bought surprise guests - the one I remember was chaka chan. (Sp) he sang nothing compares to u just with him playing piano.

Cinnamon Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I am heartbroken - I am a huge Prince fan I think he was amazing. A huge talent, an innovative performer, a complete showman who wrote music that will last forever. He also wrote 'Manic Monday' by The Bangles & 'I feel for You' by Chakka Khan, as well as the haunting 'Nothing Compares To You'. Just totally gutted that this musical genius has gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
