    I like how Weird Al assembled his own entourage to interview Prince with his.

    It's funny because Prince has no sense of humor according to Weird Al. He wouldn't let him parody any of his songs.

    • @_Stormfather
      @_Stormfather 3 года назад +10

      Not surprising, given what I saw in this video. I know it's all edited and out of context, but still, he seemed like a buzzkill

    • @mirellalastar
      @mirellalastar 2 года назад +4

      just because he refused something to Al does not mean he has zero sense of humor. Everybody is free to say yes or no. That's called freedom. Besides, Prince can be very funny, many RUclips clips can prove you that. He just takes his craft very seriously and he won't let a White man take credit or get money from the work of a black man as they usually do. Okay, real talk.

      @@mirellalastar You’re right, but I doubt skin color has something to do with his refusal. I bet that if Weird Al were black, he would’ve still refused.

    • @joshuakorynta3385
      @joshuakorynta3385 3 месяца назад

      ​@mirellalastar Prince didn't get along with anyone, regardless of skin color. Good examples include VH producer Ted Templeman asking why he didn't get help from Quincy Jones (who produced for MJ) for Purple Rain, just to be sharply declined; Hirohiro Araki when he asked if he could use his music for Diamond is Unbreakable, also shot down; and being said to be very trigger-happy by firing his crew.

      I realize I'm a little late to this party, but Prince is referring to Paisley Park, which was his home/recording studio/creative sanctuary in Minnesota. The people sitting around Prince are his cast mates from the film "Under the Cherry Moon."

    Am I the only one who respects Prince for his musical qualities but at the same time is not bothered at all by his death because the dude was a complete asshole?? Just wondering.

    • @Jacktrack7
      @Jacktrack7 8 лет назад

      Angel Deville Oh yeah, David Bowie was a great great loss, no doubt.

    • @LaLabutterfly
      @LaLabutterfly 8 лет назад +4

      Oh come off it. Considering none of us knew what he was like on a day to day basis, I'd say he was just playing a persona. Everyone knew that back then. Nor do we know if David Bowie in real life was a prick or not. Also, Prince was one hell of a philanthropist and has been for decades, he has helped propel many musicians' careers, he fought for musicians' right to own their own music. He was always willing to collaborate/work with talented people. I'd say he was a pretty flippin decent guy. His death is a massive loss to not only music lovers but to the people he has influenced with not only his musical prowess(instrumentally + lyrically) but his love for humanity. There will be none like him.

    • @filminginportland1654
      @filminginportland1654 8 лет назад +1

      Well most people would say Bowie was a very good person. I never noticed much of an air of asshole around him.
      Regardless, philanthropy does not a good person make. A lot of horrible people are philanthropists. Great tax write-offs. But I did like most of Prince's music.
      And BTW not being bothered by people dying because *you* think they're an asshole is a pretty asshole but thing to say. It's one thing if they're a perfect stranger, which he was, but it's another to say it's not sad because you perceive a defect in his personality.
