Prince played pretty much every instrument ever invented! You've GOT to check out his legendary Super Bowl halftime performance!!
🙌💯
The half time performance at the superbowl is a bleeding amazing performance!! He played in all that rain to! Defo one to watch!
@BlackPegasusRaps Gotta watch this performance
Yes!!
Yes, his Super Bowl show is the masterclass on how to perform
Dude played 27 instruments, played all the instruments on his first 5 albums--in addition to the crazy vocals and his dancing--he was a truly unique talent. Today's performers are not qualified to shine his boots...do youself a favor and check out the live performance from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction of George Harrison. He is on the stage with legends of rock and in the end shows him who the true boss is...
Please, stop saying that about the 27 instruments... He played 27 different instruments on his first album, 27 pieces: different electric and acoustic guitars, basses, drums, piano, several keyboards, drum machines, congas, tambourine, bongos... No tenor saxophone, violin, harp, trumpets, clarinet, oboe, harpsichord... You know what I mean?
His innate talent is out of the question. He mastered guitar, bass, piano and drums, but not only that: he breathed music, so he could do a solo just by thinking the notes in his head or compose a song while eating a vegan sandwich and after brushing his teeth he could record every instrument, all the vocals, mix it and produce it.
There are good and very good guitarists better than Prince (no doubt!), but only a few can say the same with a second instrument, composing, writing lyrics, or as showmen. He moved effortlessly through such a variety of styles. No one living or dead can match his enormous and diverse talent.
Moreover, he was always ahead of his time musically and in other related aspects: things like giving away a record with a newspaper, predicting the chaos of music on the internet or fighting for the masters and intellectual property of his works.
PS: He was responsible for the sticker with the famous words "Parental Advisory, explicit lyrics".
I have been a Prince fan for at least 4 decades and have attended 3 concerts, own about 120 CDs (many live bootlegs), 30 vinyl albums, 2 dozen VHS and almost as many DVDs and Blu-rays. I've also watched 90% of every piece on RUclips, from music to interviews, artists talking about him and his former band members telling their stories with him. I think I know a little bit about Prince.
@@oskarobitHe did not master the piano. This is an INSANE statement. The same goes for the drums. He was FAR from mastering it. On the guitar, though, he was something else.
@@IvoMaropo maybe "master" means different things in my language and I did a bad translation. I meant he was very good, very very good at both . And you can find drummers a keyboardist saying what I said.
For some reason he was respected by pianists like Elton John and Herbie Hancock. We can't not ask now to Miles Davis why he said Prince could play as good as his band members.
I've watched him dwelling Michael B, drummer Versus drummer and it was amazing. Are you a musician with bigger background than the mentioned? Let me doubt it.
BTW, please don't think I'm a consumer of mainstream shit, half the music I listen to, every day, is jazz.
@@oskarobit I’m not getting what you mean-I said he played 27 instruments, you said he played 27 different instruments-and I never said anything about sax or violin, just repeating what I read about his first 5 albums. I have zero doubt you know more about him than I-I was simply a fan who never got to see him play live, one of my greatest regrets. To see him play would have been incredible-he is on my list along with Stevie Ray Vaughan of people I wished I’d seen live.
@@tombanaski3251 i wrote "instruments". You know some words have multiple meanings right?
Let me put in other words. One piano and one violin are two instruments. A Gibson Epiphone and a Mad Cat (two guitars) are two instruments. Ok now?
This is what Prince used and play in "For You", the usual rock instruments like guitars, keyboards, drums, basses... Different models of each kind to make a total of 27:
EQUIPMENT
· Vocals - Neumann U67
· Guitars - Alvarez 5055 Jumbo (assumed) / Fender Stratocaster (assumed)
· Effects - Mutron Bi-Phase
· Basses - Orr Bass
· Synthesizers - Arp Pro Soloist / Arp String Ensemble / Moog Minimoog / Moog Polymoog 203a (credited as "Ms Poly Moog") / Oberheim 4 Voice
· Pianos and Keyboards - Fender Rhodes / Hohner Clavinet / Unknown acoustic piano
Drums - Pollard Syndrums / Slapstick, wind chimes, water drums, bongos, bell tree, wood block / Unknown acoustic drum kit
Once in an Interview, Eric Clapton got asked how it feels, to be the world best guitarist. He answered: "Ask PRINCE". Says a lot!
"What am I watching?"
One of the greatest musical performers EVER.
Apollonia half-naked. That's what he meant. Lol.
Correction: THE greatest live performer ever.
Prince has the best halftime show in history!
Truth
"can you make it rain harder?"
💯 No Lies Detected!
God blessed that song during that half time show !!!!
Can you make it rain harder?
Never went to a concert, but I saw him at a party once. He walked by me, then took two steps back and said to me, "Those shoes are FLY." I about fell over! 💜
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
How are you still breathing?!? Omg! 💜
That's awesome 😂❤
Saw Prince live Bd he was exceptionally good. He ran around the stage on those heels and jumped up on the piano from a standing position. He was renowned for playing multiple instruments, producing, arranging and performing on his music and was a true musical genius. Have a listen to some of his albums - you will be astounded.💜 please.s. the stage costumes were a nod to the French Revolution and his royal name.
I would think about that every single day of my life. I'm so glad that you had that moment.
Prince:
• Wrote all of his music and music for other artists.
• Was a self-taught, multi-instrumental virtuoso
• Was a multi-octave vocalist
• Played every instrument, mixed all the tracks, recorded the master and produced his debut album solely.
• Arranged and re-arranged other tracks for artists that were not his original music.
• The list goes on…
Self taught ~ bueno, G-d inspired ❤🕊🙏
Prince didn’t play music, He made love to the crowd with his guitar every single performance. His passion was immeasurable and honestly doubt it will ever be matched.
There will NEVER be another PRINCE! 💯 🎸 🎤 drop
I agree!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Guitar Gently Weeps is another great performance by Prince and shows how well he was respected by other amazing guitar players.
🙌💯🙌💯🙌💯🙌💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
Be sure to read the comments for the backstory on this performance at the tribute to George Harrison 💐
that vid shows a lot of skilled musicians at work. So many legends and a great cover, a must watch
If you dont do another reaction, do this one for sure!!
Yes this!! Came looking for comment ❤
I grew up hearing my mother play Prince's albums and never really respected him as much as he deserves until I saw "While my Guitar Gently Weeps".
I live right down the street from Paisley Park. I've never seen such profound sadness when he died. The streets for blocks, including the highway were closed for days and no one complained. I walked over there everyday stayed for hours talking with folks from all over the world. Ssooooo much incredible fan art and tribute pieces. The estate kept it all, well most of it, and its on display in Paisley Park. I had the privilege of seeing him perform multiple times as well as seeing him in person casually, a few times. Super nice person. And when I tell you his smile would light up the room, Lord!!
💔💜👑
Yes, us Minnesotan's took his death HARD. Blessings to you neighbor 🙏 ❤️
That was an awesome tribute so sad to lose him. When my wife and I heard we were about to enjoy a Homer Simpson Juicy Lucy at the Nook the best burger ever was enjoyed with tears. After weeping over onion rings we headed to First Ave where people cried and dropped flowers and cards😢
Break up song masterpiece.
You missed a legend. Absorb as much of him as you can. He will forever be missed. A once in a lifetime talent. Long live his legacy!!!!
Prince oozed sexuality and sensuality.. Women loved him, he had that magical magnetism, like moths to a flame .. he left enough music in his vault to put out albums for the next 100 years.. RIP 💜💜💜
Prince wasn't as good as people say he was. He was better. Gone WAY too soon. RIP
I miss him so much
His Super Bowl performance is the BEST ever! No one will ever beat it. It was POURING rain- the producers were worried about him performing in the rain, and when they told him, he said “can you make it rain harder?” Amazing show watching him play electric guitar in the pouring rain, in very high heels, and dancing on a slick stage! 🎸💜💜💜
Purple Rain in the pouring rain. They couldn't have ordered it up any better. Mind blowing performance!
Yes it was by far the best halftime performance!
Compared to THIS, his Super Bowl performance was just ok.
I am green!❤
I just happened to win tickets to the Superbowl the year he performed, so I got to witness that performance live and in person! Sitting in those stands in the pouring rain getting soaked while he performed Purple Rain is by far one of the most epic moments of my life! U should definitely check out that version!!
W O W 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I wish I could've seen THAT performance live
I'm soooo jealous!❤️
Yes! With the FAMU Marching 100!
I saw Prince in Las Cruces New Mexico 7 March 1985. My buddy had a new girlfriend who couldn't go to the concert unless her sister could go too. The sister refused to go unless she had a "date". I got roped into going to show I didn't really want to see because in 85, 19 year old me was all about hair metal and head banging.
But I went, just to be a good wingman for my friend.
Prince completely changed my relationship with music. He was incredible. His absolute skill as a guitarist, his stage presence and the way he connected with the audience--all of it, was transcendent.
Rest in peace, Prince, and thank you for expanding my young soul.
It is 16 minutes of absolute greatness🎸🎸
Purple rain was more than an album, a movie, a tour. It was a movement.
He should still be here 😢
When Prince performed at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame show honoring George Harrison, playing While My Guitar Gently Weeps, he didn’t even show up for rehearsals. He told all the others don’t worry, just play and I’ll be there. He then delivered a BLISTERING 2 minute solo that will live in infamy- and that was right after Rolling Stone came out with their list of the 100 greatest guitar players, and Prince wasn’t even on the list! He sure showed them!!! 🎸💜
i love when he tosses his guitar and just walks off the stage....
Absolutely 💯 incredible performance by Prince indeed! Black Pegasus needs to watch that for sure!
Dhani Harrison's smile was EVERYTHING when he leaned back, OMG, I love that video so much!!
@@rhondasmithis Dhani was a HUGE Prince fan. And isn’t it amazing how much he looks just like his dad? I heard (not sure how much truth there is in this) that George Harrison’s wife did NOT want Prince to perform- but only the people who had met and/or knew George- and George had never met Prince... I heard it was Dhani that intervened and insisted Prince play… 💜💜💜
This is the must see Prince performance!
What are you watching ? A Musical Genius , unbelievable song writer , a multi instrumentalist & a showman and thats just the tip of the iceberg !! .. Prince Superbowl live & While My Guitar Gently Weeps from the George Harrison Tribute are spellbinding . RIP Prince Rogers Nelson 🙏🏻
Halftime show BP MUST!
Was George's solo Hall of Fame induction
How blessed we were to have MJ and Prince at the height of their careers at the same time.
Absolutely! ❤
It was the greatest generation of music.
I was fortunate enough to see the opening night of the Purple Rain tour back in November 1984 in Detroit. Been to a lot of concerts in my day and no one holds a candle to that night with Prince! R.I.P.
Prince was a GOAT!!!
The way he handled his guitar and voice is unmatched.
sorry, unmatched? yeah, sure.
Him playing with other greats live “While my guitar gently weeps” is a MUST. Prince could play anything! R.I.P. Prince 💜🙌🏻
Amazing performance!
Greatest guitar solo of ALL TIME: Prince, “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” 2004 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, with Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne, Steve Winwood, et al.
He didn’t even show up for rehearsal. He just walked onstage, absolutely nailed it, threw his guitar to the heavens, & walked away. ✌🏼
And performances like that was why that short man with the high heels, feathered boa, skin tight leather pants and a very quiet manner when not onstage could walk into any room and walk out with any woman he wanted (even if she was already spoken for). 💜💜💜
Agreed
Epic.
you forgot Dhani, Harrison George's son, and clone, who was the one who asked him to play to honor his Dad. If you watch he gives Prince a sly smile right before Prince steals the show.
There will NEVER EVER be another artist like Prince. The man was, is, and will always be a LEGEND!!!!!!! 👑👑👑💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Ya gotta see this performed at the superbowl. Proof god exists!
YES!!! 2007 Super Bowl in Maimi is the BEST half-time show in Super Bowl history! 💜
Wendy on guitar, Lisa on keyboards..."The Revolution" was Prince's band from 1979 to 1986. All the people on stage you see at the end were the cast of the Purple Rain movie. The girl in black panties is Apollonia but I've also spotted Morris Day and Jerome from the band "The Time". I've been at a Prince concert twice, in 1986 and 1988. The greatest live experiences I've witnessed during my long music journey. Words can't explain.
I saw Prince perform live in Berlin, Germany in May 1987 on his "Sign of the Times" Tour, two weeks before I immigrated to the United States. It was an indescribable, forever memorable experience. My wife and I decided to go home after the concert, just to find out from our friends the next day that Prince went to the club we had planned to go to and had a jam session with the band that was playing that night. What a missed once-in-a-lifetime event; you just never know.
Doesn't matter when you get on the purple bus, just enjoy the journey! Prince wore the same dark colored, glitter top to accept the Academy Award for the album Purple Rain, March 1985. He had the number one single, album and movie simultaneously. 40+ studio albums. There will never be another like him! You might enjoy The Undertaker video from mid nineties.
Prince was a musical genius and a great performer.
In November of 1984 I took my 14 year old nephew and myself to the Capital center in largo Maryland outside Washington DC to see his Purple Rain concert!! We were nosebleed high. Sheila E was his opening act. She was fantastic!!!!! He came out throwing tambourines out to the audience. He played purple rain for over an hour. He knew how to put on a show!!!!
prince wasn't just a top-tier guitarist, but he could play the hell out of a piano and the drums.
We saw Purple Rain at the theater in 84. Cried. Such a great flick. Iam such a big fan. Since I have family in Minneapolis, I've been to First Ave, the huge club where Purple Rain was filmed. Love Prince so much. He was a genius in many ways. Gone too soon.
Prince was a magnetic performer and musician and his outrageous talent set the bar for others! My most memorable performance by him was the 2007 Super Bowl! The heavens released a downpour of rain during his song Purple Rain! It was amazing 🎉🎉🎉❤RIP Prince ❤
His jazz piano is also outta this world!
I found a pre concert clip of him checking levels and he went into a whole jazz piece and it was amazing.
The world lost something magical the day Prince died. He was pure genus and talent, you owe it to yourself to get familiar with an absolute LEGEND
Prince is the reason I picked up the guitar . Only took me a few years to realize I will never ever be as cool as this goat. Great reaction vid
It's been said that Eric Clapton was asked what it was like to be the best guitar player, and he replied, "I don't know, ask Prince.
NOPE, Clapton never said that. Also, that same quote has been used inserting Jimmy Page, David Gilmore, etc..
@@christopherone1 I wasn't sure of it myself. That's why I wrote that it has been said, implying uncertainty about it being an actual quote. Spell check added the quotation marks.
You absolutely need to check out him on While My Guitar Gently Weeps. He was snubbed on a top 100 guitarists list so he did his thing at a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony and made DAMN sure people knew he belonged on that list
I had the immense pleasure of seeing him 10xs in concert. It's an otherworldly experience for sure. His death left a HUGE void in music.
The difference between Prince and everyone else is Prince doesn’t just play the guitar. He plays like 25 instruments. He sings. He wrote songs for so many other artists.
Other artists play music. Prince WAS music.
Prince SUPER BOWL 1/2 time show hands down the greatest 1/2 time there ever was or ever will be.
"Yo... What am I watching?" ❤😆 The Fancy Man gave quite a few famous women their names too. Apollonia, Sheila E, Carmen Electra, Vanity... I always thought it would be so cool to have a name appointed by Prince. Looking forward to more Prince reactions.
While My Guitar Gently Weeps is a must watch!
Yes
Prince and Michael were on a whole different plane than the rest of us. Every fiber of their being was about the music.....the rest of us just stare in awe....
If you want to watch Prince play the guitar in a way that’ll blow your mind check out the 2004 performance of my guitar gently weeps at I believe the rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Fame concert when they inducted George Harrison? Somebody can correct me on that, but you have to see this performance is amazing.
Prince could play 27 different instruments. A musical genius! Sign of the Times was pretty cool.
This is THE best live version of Purple Rain. Period. Saw him on December 30, 1984 in Dallas, TX (Purple Rain Tour) and still remember how phenomenal he was....
That reaction made me so happy! I just love watching someone experience Prince for the first time. “What are you watching?” The legendary, iconic, genius, Prince. Yes, all those words and so many more are appropriate for just one man. So glad you are hopping on the bus. Enjoy the ride!
Please continue checking out his performances. They are epic. If you want to see him show his mastery of piano, check out the Piano Medley from the Lovesexy Tour. If you want to see him rock the drums, go with the live performances of “America” or “It’s Gonna Be a Beautiful Night.” If you want to check him out on bass, take a look at him performing covers of “Play that Funky Music/Hollywood Swinging/Fantastic Voyage” at the LA Forum or “Pass the Peas” with Maceo Parker. If you want to see him dance, go with “Baby I’m a Star/Push” from the Special Olympics opening ceremony. The point is that he mastered many everything.
One of my favorite performances to watch at the moment is “Thieves in the Temple/It” - he’s on an acoustic guitar for this one at the club he had in Minneapolis called Glam Slam ruclips.net/video/gbVRUY07I8k/видео.htmlsi=IjJKrVpz3zkreu84 💜💜💜
You're watching GREATNESS!!!! Everytime I hear Purple Rain, i cant not cry! RIP Prince! 💔
I work in a cemetery and I shit you not...when he died, the sky was purple and it rained for days Gone with the other great legends, but NEVER forgotten!
Not only was Prince an Epic Guitar Player but he could play every instrument in the band and play everything better than his band members. Dude was amazing. Funny Prince story. When I was 17 my sister was 15 and she wanted to go to the Prince concert. The only way my mom would let her go was if I chaperoned. I wanted nothing to do with going to see Prince. My mom bought me 2 tickets so I could take someone so I caved and went. Turned out to be one of the best concerts I've ever been to. I was a Prince fan from that night on.
You know when they say "a good musician and make their instrument SING". That's what he does. He makes it sing! He gives it a voice, and what a beautiful voice.🥰
He sings like no one sings, he plays like no one plays. I loved him through thec80's and i love hem now. RIP
Prince "Diamonds and Pearls" is yet another side of him ... both the song and the album.
Rosie Gaines kills it on that whole album. Great album , great song.
The Princeverse is a huge wormhole to enter if you ever check out his stable of bands or his influence. You can get lost listening to The Time, Appolonia 6, Madhouse, Vanity, Sheila E, Chaka Khan, Sheena Easton, and quite a few more
The fact that this amazing, most beautiful soul died alone in an elevator absolutely breaks my heart 💜
The best Prince performance was half time at the Super Bowl......just brilliant.
So much of this performance is improvised. Prince was a true Entertainer. He could move too, it wasn't just MJ.
You need to watch the celebration of guitarist that played George Harrison's "When my guitar gently weeps". Prince was an absolute beast on the guitar on this song!!!!😮😮😮😮
One of my biggest regrets is not being able to see him in concert before he passed. He was such an amazing artist, musician, singer and dancer. Please react to the live version of Baby I'm A Star! The energy is palpable!❤❤❤
The best possible way to experience a Prince performance is watch a live one.
My favorite guitarist of all time. He belongs on another planet. He and his guitar were like one being, inseparable when he played. RIP to the greatest. He also always empowered women way before it was the "in" thing to do. He was an amazing person.
I saw him preform this show at the dome in Syracuse. I was 15 at the time. One of the greatest showman besides Freddy Mercury.
I saw the same tour in Toronto and damn it was a sexy show ❤
Saw Prince in Concert 1984, had great seats, 4th row center stage. My Ex Wife was a Huge Fan, I was familiar with his music but got the seats from my employer to Please My Wife. It turned out to be the Greatest Live Show I Have Ever Seen. One of the Greatest Entertainers Ever To Go On Sttage and I AM Blessed To Have Seen Him Live ..... RIP PRINCE
Live performances, Prince employed a large accompaniment of great artists. For his albums - most songs were done primarily by him. Prince was atuned to 19 different instruments, and played each with force.
Prince also had that greatest half time superbowl show if you ask me.
I'm sure this has been mentioned but I highly recommend watching Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, while my Guitar Gently Weeps honoring George Harrison (Beetles). Clapton, Prince, Petty, Steve Winwood and George's son, Dhani Harrison.... I'm missing one....dang! Others please help?
I told him twicw'
Jeff Lynne was there. Epic performance!
@@heartwork8318 that's right! Thank you. Epic
Prince was the King. Still is the king. Long live Prince.
Wendy Melvoin on rythem guitar, one of the best! Saw Prince in 1999 at an outdoor music festival in Minneapolis
Jaw dropping performance 😮 . Prince and purple rain EPIC. RIP Prince , let it guide us through the Purple Rain . 💜
Must check Prince doing Purple Rain at Super Bowl you will be shocked! Best Super Bowl Half Time Show!
Prince in 85 was the black dude who could wear his sisters wig and shirt put on eyeliner and steal your girl! He was a boss on the stage!
I was fortunate enough to see Prince on the Purple Rain tour. It was amazing!
My Guitar Gently Weeps is a must! One of my favorite top guitar solos! I still have my Purple Rain album! Still can't believe he's gone, one of the best artists in music!
Yes I still get MOOSEBUMPS when he sings…..dang..whole body shiver RIP Prince.
This is why Prince was one of the very best! God Damn Fentanyl.
“What am I watching? ”… A master at his craft.
Prince at the Super Bowl, BEST performance EVER! There's a video of Prince playing in the rain. When asked if he could perform in the rain, his reply was, can you make it rain harder? Awesome!
"What am I watching?"
You are watching greatness gone way too early.
RIP Prince
He was the most talented person to walk the earth. 1st Album he played EVERY instrument
As many others have said, watch his superbowl appearance. It was pouring rain. He was going to play the electric guitar (not surprising). Electricity and water typically don't mix. He refused to not play. To paraphase him, "They're here for a show and we're giving them one" and DAMN... it was friggin awesome.
The Superbowl Performance when he played this song during a thunderstorm has to be reacted to, apparently when they told him it was going to rain afraid he was going to cancel, Prince asked them could they make it rain heavier! Top Superbowl performance ever.
I missed the bus with him too and what a revolutionary artist, I never knew 1 person could be so incredibly talented as he was. I wish I could’ve seen him live, there will never be another like him
Performances like this are why old school mf's like me get cranky when people sample his music. Leave it alone. It's meant to stand alone.
Saw Prince in Houston, Tx during the Purple Rain tour. #1 best concert I have ever been to, he laid his guitar down on the stage and started humping it. The crowd lost their minds! RIP Prince.
I was at this concert when I was 13! It was epic! I wish I would have been old enough to really appreciate his genius. The concert was mind blowing.
I have to say…You are watching a Legend!!! RIP. Prince ✝️💜
You got me with this one. I'm crying over the loss of such a musical genius. To have so much God given talent is beyond words. He was truly loved by millions.
“Let’s Go Crazy”. Must see.
You must go down the Prince rabbit hole. Start at 1980. We in the Twin Cities knew about Prince a few years before he went multinational.
I got a question for you. What was the Twin Cities music seen like back in the 80s? And has it changed?
The reason I ask is, my buddy and I came over there to see Metallica a few years ago. We thought well they must have a vibrant music seen. Knowing that Prince was from there, as well as Morris Day etc. So we thought after the show we would try to find a bar and watch some more live music. Metallica got done a little after 11. We walked around a 4 or 5 block area near the stadium. Only one bar was open. On a Saturday night. It took was 15 minutes to get a beer. Then the bar closed at midnight. Definitely not what we were expecting. Is that normal or were we just in the wrong part of town?
I saw him 3 times live. A legend.
Puts a chill right through you, right .❤️Prince❤️
Prince was that dude! Amazing singer, amazing guitarist, one of the biggest sex symbols of the 80s...just amazing! You have to check out "When doves cry". Such an amazing song!!!
When i saw Prince do the Superbowl i knew he was a Real one
I’m 66 years old and a music fanatic. I’ve seen just about everybody in concert, but no one compared to Prince. Live Prince is astonishing. Check out If I Was Your Girlfriend, live from Sign Of The Times. Also, Play That Funky Music live from 2011 at the Forum. Motherless Child live is a knockout and showcases his ability as a band leader.
I love watching people in that moment when they first realize just how much of a genius Prince was. There never was anyone like him and there never will be. I am so happy I was a young person who grew up alongside Prince, as a fan of his music. I was gutted when he passed away.
Prince was beyond compare. Prince was everything! Prince was...Prince!
You should watch the "Purple Rain" movie. Prince was known for his long intros to his songs.
I'm 54 years old and all 3 of my adult children (in their 20's) know every son on the Purple Rain album.
The only times I cried as an adult was when my grandmother died and when Prince died. Still can't believe he's gone.
Prince was very possibly the most talented singer/songwriter/composer/musician/performer of my entire 68 years of life. He could play practically any instrument you can name, obviously one of the greatest guitarists, unreal vocal skills, and just a showman extraordinaire. And yeah, he was a player. The ladies loved him, and he loved the ladies. By all means, check out his Superbowl Halftime Show. Definitely the greatest one ever.
This version is from the live concert released on VHS and last year on Blu-ray Disc. The audience is singing whooo ooooi have seen Prince live 15 times Prince played 20 instruments. He would rehearse his tours for 8 hours a day
AMAZINGLY PHENOMENAL & GIFTED ARTIST!!! He surpassed MJ... IMO
💜🔥🌹
