We Took a Tour of Prince's Home Before Coronavirus Shut it Down

- When Prince was still alive, an invitation to Paisley Park was the stuff of dreams for a Prince fan.
But now, anyone with $50 can visit. You just have to drop off any camera equipment, including your phone, in the lobby - and be satisfied with committing the experience to memory.
Today marks four years since Prince’s untimely passing. And while a steady stream of unearthed material and re-releases keep his memory alive, there are plenty of superfans who would love to mark the occasion in person. But COVID-19 is preventing them from making a trip to Chanhassen to pay their respects to their idol.
Before the coronavirus pandemic shut everything down, VICE took a very exclusive look inside Prince’s enigmatic fortress with Dan Piepenbring, Prince’s unlikely co-author on the experimental biography, “The Beautiful Ones”.

When I was there, There was a zero cellphone policy, I've seen lately they let people have their phones where the soundstage is.
O wow that's messed up when they opening again we here in DCeverything is closed
It wasn't a 'fortress', it was Prince's 'home'...
Hey, wasn't Prince supposed to have a shitload of music in his vault? Why is none of it being released? It's been 4 years.
Brings back great memories...I was there the day after the superbowl 4 the deluxe tour. Most of it has changed since then I see. When this video ended I so wanted more..
The purple lights used to be on whenever he was home....
Yup. 💜
Exactly when those lights were on he was home
True Prince fan
Yep... the bat signal😂 he loved Batman long before the Soundtrack
@@kitap6447 that was the first tune he learned to play on the piano.
This man had a mall for a house.
His original intention was it to be only for business because he had houses and mansions everywhere. He ended up living there by himself and died by himself. Everybody said he was always lonely
a museum for a house, almost like he knew he was gunna die some day
"Everybody said he was always lonely"
What a load of bullshit! Who is everybody? He had several homes, not sure where you get this "houses and mansions everywhere" nonsense but his "original intention" for Paisley Park was for multi-purpose, one-stop-shop, work, rest and play, but you've somehow concluded that he was living there 'unintentionally' after 29 years?
@@goat8249 We're all gonna die someday.
lol that's exactly what I thought! He lived in a mall lol, very prince-like of course
I was Whitney Houston's personal chef for many years. I had the privilege to meet many stars in the industry. Most were horrible people.
Prince was at a dinner party Whitney was giving.
He spent the evening with me in the kitchen, talking about all the people he hated at the party.
He was incredibly friendly and down to earth. I felt like I'd known him forever.
boodoggy that is so cool!
I bet you have some interesting stories!
@@86Jeanette oh yeah. Plenty. My gag order is over so I can say almost anything. Ask me about someone, anyone. Mariah, pebbles, Whitney, la Reid, many others. Whoopi Goldberg walked up to me at a party I was cooking at and asked if I knew where she could buy some good pot. Lol
@@86Jeanette ask me about someone and I'll tell you if I know them. I met some truly horrible people, but some great ones too
What was the most surprising celebrity meeting for you ?
Prince said it best, I am something you will never comprehend. ☔☂️🌂
Yeah lmao, i bet my kids won’t even understand prince lmao
God does so that’s all that matters..0
He wasn’t weird he was different he stood outside of the box while others stood in the box with the rest of the group . He was creative and had his own way of doing things.
Ayanna Smith precisely, well stated! He was a genius with his uniqueness, and that’s why he was able to stay relevant for so many years.
Yes,,,,, & They got him fuck'd up.... Walk'n thru his house like dat
Thats fake news
LaShonda Spriggs it said he built it to become a museum one day. That’s what he planned for it to become.
@Mowaad Jones "talent"
How could you call prince weird? He was an absolute genius.
Ikr, I don't know where they find these horrible people sometimes on Vice. Why can't they get an actual musician to show him around who actually loves and gets Prince?
Ignorance...Prince probably laughed him off🙃💜
Fact is society sucks. If prince wasn’t famous & you ran into him. You would probably think he was weird as well.
@@marsoblivi0n945 No, I would think he's as cool as shit, and hot. But you are right, many don't get artsy people and musicians in general.
Every genius people are weird and we should embrace it ✨
I never thought of Prince as being weird, I always thought he was an eccentric genius...
ever heard of the saying weird and wonderful
He was just a brother from Minneapolis named Roger Nelson... who took himself a little too seriously.
Nothing weird about him...surely nothing weird about his musical efforts. He was just on another level. He Left good stuff here for us in his absence. In the end...there is the music and it;s just awesome!
This generation is gonna think he was weird because he didn't sample but that's what places him above everybody
Joseph Williams umm I just looked at a long list of sample sources. I don't think people realize sampling was common even before the popularity of HipHop. Here's a link if you want to see for yourself sites.google.com/site/princecoveredsongs/Home/songs-sampled-by-prince
No it's because he wore 12inch stilettos better than me 💅 but we love him r.i.p
How do U know he didn't?
@@gingerelvira6587 show me proof he only did a remake of "betcha by golly wow " I have never heard a prince song that sounded like somebody else's 😂
He did sample/use samplers. :-)
He wasn't weird: he was C-O-O-L 💜
Fantastically COOL
Thank you 💜💟
Exactly😊👍💜 an awesome, & talented man.💜
98% of all the People who have flavor love the Man and his Talent
Yeah! The word "weird" didn't settle with me either. I was thinking it was my age🤷🏾♀️
My husband was invited to Paisley Park in the 90’s, a friend of his was recording in his studio and he ran into Prince in the hallway. We would go to his night club Glam Slam he owned in Minneapolis in the early 90’s. A friend paid a membership fee so we would could use the pass, you could hang out with Prince on a private floor overlooking the dance floor. He would be in the corner by himself observing, he gave the vibe he wanted to be alone. He would crash the dance floor in the downtown Mpls bars, he would walk through the middle of the dance floor with his body guards. Fun memories, he loved Mpls!
thank you for sharing your story!
That’s great 😀
My wife and I were invited two or three different times. The invites were always last minute as our friend who worked with Prince didn't even know until last minute. It was always like 11pm on a Wednesday night. (It didn't necessarily mean prince was going to perform. It could be a band he wanted to watch) I passed as I had to work early the few times we were invited. I never imagined we wouldn't get another chance with him passing. My wife doesn't let me live that down the few times we were invited!
Wowww! I would've fainted from joy.
I was both places in the early 90’s
He wasn't weird, he was unique and could steal any mans girl!
while wearing her clothes!
Except this one! 🙋🏽♀️ the bikini bottoms at the beginning is a no no for me.
all creative people get called weird,it happened in 70s with genesis ,p floyd,yes ,return to for ever and all the other Miles davis off shots
He or steal a man 👞 man 🤷‼️😂 just saying
@Megan O 😅🤷
After Prince passed away was when I discovered why people were so infatuated with him. Prior to his death I had no clue what the big deal was. I had no idea all those cool songs I used to hear as a kid were either Prince songs or Prince samples. I also did not know he was a comedian and I had no idea he was actually a (brilliant) musician. And his personal life is just as intriguing as his public persona. He was truly a one of a kind.
Welcome to the fam.
Man prince wasn't weird, he had everything yo woman like
Prince was a butt pirate🏴☠️😂🤣😭
👏👏👏
EXACTLY!
Facts!!!! And nobody can do it like him
EXACTLY 💜💜💜💜💜
Well, first of all....Prince was never "weird"! Its just the fact that everyone else was always behind him. He was so far ahead of the curve, that he was out of sight. He was HUGE part of my life, and we'll never see another person like him again!!
I agree with you. Prince was a head of his time. He said a lot through his music. I miss you and there never be other Prince.
What i loved about Prince was that he stayed true to himself and his music. He never allowed people's expectations of him to influence him. He could have lived anywhere in the world but he chose to stay in his hometown, unlike others who cannot wait to leave theirs to live in some glamorous city. Some people cannot comprehend true genius so they categorize him as weird.
@@sweeptheleg.
Exactly!! I've caught a lot of his shows, but I wished I could have met him!! I would love to have picked his brain..🤔
@@helenfountain9276
Oh yes, he said alot through his music. Most people never get it. He was telling us about current conditions all the way back with "America"!!
@@sweeptheleg. Yes him did warrant us. I was walking the other day and I looked up in the sky and seen chemtrails. And many more things that Prince said will be.
Weird isn’t the word, more so unique or authentic. ⚡️💜
Adventurous genious a dyanamo
Using the weird shows they really didn't understand him
Weird is bland, unique is how you could describe him
Exactly! You never want to be "normal" but you want to stand out in a good way, and Prince did exactly that!
“Weird” is a word some of these kids would use because they don’t have the vocabulary or the understanding to say anything else. Give them some time to mature, they will find another word to use.
Exactly, these kids today lack a lot. Weird is trendy, so they'll use the word for anything that they don't understand. Modern pop music essentially sounds the same. Prince was a virtuoso genius of music. He literally had his own genre. Nothing compares to Prince.
I’m 42 with an expansive vocabulary and Prince was weird.
@@Gapeaches77able Marilyn Manson is weird, Dennis Rodman is weird, 'Weird' Al is weird (but I like him lol)..., Prince I think had some weird tendencies, but in his younger years he was very SHY.., plus he was a Gemini!!
I always thought it was so crazy to live so close to paisley park. I remember seeing prince out biking when I was driving through town. Really cool guy who loved his community here in Chanhassen.
Please, tell us some Prince stories...
I’m so jealous of you i don’t even know what to say
Yes. He was always biking. Saw him many times.
I don’t think weirdness is the proper word to describe Prince ... 🤦♀️
"I would rather be weird then normal".
~Prince
I think he was just trying to be subjective... like what kids now days may think of Prince (granted if they did a lil research they would know that MANY artists the kids like now days are influenced by & wouldn't be who they are if it weren't for prince, but I digress.) Either way, yes disrespectful... he could've worded it differently.
😤😤😁😁😆😆😭😂😂👁️🤣🤣🤧🤧🥴🥴😷🤒😜🤔😭🕺🕺
@@tina8796 he is he wears girl thongs 🤔🤪 that normal??😤😁🖐️🥴no it's not fucing goof ball🤔😜🤒😤😁🖐️🖐️🤣🤣👁️👍🖕
@pighater52
Girl thongs? Where did U get that?
Prince wore custom made underwear, when he did wear underwear according 2 Carmen Electra in a Howard Stern interview 20 years ago.
Unique, way ahead of his time, trend setter, insanely talented musician, and not afraid to be himself is a better way to describe Prince.
The world is a much sadder place without Prince 👑😔😢
Deborah Watson Hell will be even sadder if you don’t repent and turn to Jesus.
I was lucky enough to attend the 1st Official "Celebration" Prince hosted in 2000. To be in Paisley Park for 7 days of events and concerts, PLUS personally SPEAK one on one with him was an Honor I never will forget!
Prince, My Love, Rest In Peace my purple friend. I will never forget your love and your generosity to all people,no matter what color or creed they were. You were made of Music and it flooded from your body like water and love to everyone .no matter what color. I know you are in heaven with your beautiful son Amir waiting to be reunited with your beautiful wife Mayte. You will have that beautiful lovely family you wrote so many beautiful songs about and made plans for.Our God is a loving God and he wants you to be blessed with happiness and a life filled with love and music as that was what you dreamed and prayed for since the day you saw Mayte. We on earth were blessed with your music you left for us and will look forward when we will all be in heaven with our Heavenly Father where there is never any pain and and sickness. We will be our heavenly home where there is no hate and hardships with our Lord forever. Amen. 💜🙏☮️. 84’

Wow 7DAYS Can you elaborate a bit! ♡
That's fantastic!! DO TELL!!
@@andrearubidge6635 Prince did not believe that he would go to Heaven. He was one of Jehovah's Witnesses. He believed that he and his son would be resurrected in the flesh, to earth in the near future after Gods War of Armaggedon. He looked forward to living forever in the earthly Paradise that God intended this world to be from the beginning. He looked forward to raising his son in a world without tears and pain, where man and beasts will all be at peace with everyone. He would have wanted you to visit jw.org to learn about his wonderful hope at jw.org. .
The interviewer is Gerald straight out of hey Arnold
Totally! I wonder if that is the look/vibe he was going for... lol
80s baby, 90s kid here!
Mario Juarez lol facts
yes thats his permanent crown!!! cthu
lol
It's interesting being within walking distance of his house. Every time I got to school I see it, everytime I go to work I see it too, it's neat knowing that someone with as important of a legacy as prince is a local.
Nythil I used to always drive by the Unibombers property to get to work. Yours is a better story lol
@@VIi726 Isn't it a cabin in Montana?
The Snake ya, Lincoln Montana. They took the cabin and put it in a museum though
I didn’t even know who this dude was, honestly.
Whisper my name next time please 💜
Vice, you could have sent someone who knew how important, genius and exceptionally cool Prince was.
Not this muppet.
Prince was amazing. He wasn’t weird at all. He had his own way of thinking and didn’t follow anyone. He was unique. He stood up for what he believed in. I love purple also. I’d have everything in purple if I could. Purple reminds me of Prince. R.I. P I miss you Prince. 😞
The world is empty, flat and colourless without his genius here. I miss him incredibly 😔😥💜🕊🌈🌌
Ana Lytical me too 😓😓 I watched his lovesexy tour on laserdisc last night and it was tough to sit through 😫
Gary Cambridge daym laserdisc i can find the discs at sales but never a player
@@garycambridge5513 You can sell them to me x
forever SHAMPOO I would imagine this will be released in dvd when they eventually get round to remastering the lovesexy album 🤗
Ana Lytical I’ll keep it for now thanks 😉
Miss Prince man, such a unique soul & the greatest to ever do it
It wasn't his " weirdness " He was and still is "PRINCE"
Prince was unique and there will NEVER be another like him.
I bought The Best of Prince album on vinyl for twenty quid.
.
Tonight I'm gonna party like it's 19.99.
Party like its.....19~~~99🎼🎶🎶🎶
Ok boomer
Whats ur fav song?
wtf is a quid?
👍
With all due respect, I wish Prince had chosen someone else to write his book... someone older who had actually lived in real time through all of Prince's musicology.
And someone who wasn't an anti Christian bigot as well.
npgcrew well to be fair prince was about as two faced about religion as you can get.
Prince had his reasons. That our his alone.
He was likely you know connecting with him deeply!
meesalikeu Jehovah’s Witness
He knew ahead of time he wanted another Graceland. He loved his parents and wanted to leave the world his legacy. He did.
I didn’t like these guys. All they did was make fun of how 80s and how weird Prince was. I get it y’all don’t understand the art but the man is dead and show a little more respect.
:(. He didnt deserve to be in his house. He's completely disrespectful
These pinheads weren't even born yet (in the era)!
Its Vice, what did you expect
dAVAb Summed up millennialist well
And why are You too idiots in there playing ping pong that's disrespectful And Prince was not weird 😕 How dare you
I saw him at the Coliseum in LA. I can say he was James brown, Mozart, jimi Hendrix and many a demigod....rolled into one being. He is and will always be a genius thousands of years ahead of his time.🔮❤
I always thought that too as far as seeing his influences of James Brown and Jimi Hendrix with his style and mannerisms. But a very underrated guitar player though. Check out his solo in while my guitar gently weeps that he did with the late great Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne. Its unbelievable how great it is.
FIFTY DOLLARS?!?!? ... I’m down. I’m going as soon as possible.
freewheelingit me to
Yasss! But I think that is general admission according to the website. I do not care. I willowy $5,000. I planned on going the year I turned 49 which sadly was the year he died. I cried to watched all of his jail break videos in you tube for two weeks straight. I love this man. RIP
littif never made it to PP in his lifetime either. Thought he would live forever, well, at least until in his 80s. Saw him in concert at least 10 times though, but damn the way he died was quite unexpected. I doubt I’ll get over it.
bobbyc912 - You will. We survived MJ.
No one is here to stay!
ong
This was super difficult to watch, I FEEL like I'm invading his personal, private space and I was not invited. Just breaks my heart, wide open knowing his body has left this earth, I'm gonna go watch Purple Rain now and then flood my car with his music. Wherever you are Rogers Nelson - PRINCE, you Still blow my mind and my soul awakens a little more, EVERY time I listen to your unparalleled, sacred music 💜🤍💜
Me and my son were there on October 10, 2021 and EVER since then he is IN TO PRINCE!!! He is 13 years old. Of course he has heard Prince all of his life but when he went to Paisley Park and seen for himself what I had been trying to tell/show him all of his life was awesome!!!! He has downloaded so much Prince music and now wants to play the guitar!!!!! Thank you Prince for making my baby see and hear what REAL music is!!!!!!! I will bleed PURPLE for as long as I live!!!!! R.I.PurpleHeaven
How can you explain to kids what the 80's were like ? Those that lived it, danced to it, partied to it, drank to it, know what's up. So blessed i was born in 69 & again blessed to have seen Prince live 3 times. Thank you Prince & the 80's.............Gone but never forgotten. Peace !
Beeboy69 I was born in 69 also! Growing up in the 80’s was the best time of my life!
Oh My! How time flies! 1980 was 4 decades ago! I had a blast in that decade. I love the good quality, in-depth documentaries about everything that happened in that bombastic decade. Over the past 3 decades, many details get blurred or forgotten. I remember the music, MTV ruled the pop culture, lots of great movies--but, the other areas of the 80s I can barely recall, if at all.
Prince, Michael Jackson, and Madonna ruled the dance floors/music scene. Today, the 80s seem as if they occurred a century ago, not the 40 yrs!
So strange how ordinary the exterior of the place is, and then when you walk in, it’s an explosion of his personality that’s been carefully sprawled out, carefully preserved. Pretty cool.
He smelled Princ’s Perfume because his Spirit was there right beside him.
Cologne is what I thought he meant, but Hollyweird make people strange!
A lingering fart
Yes. Same happened when my brother passed.
Yes most definitely his spirit resides there to some degree and still does more times than not♥
@You heard? he did not wear thongs
Still hard to believe that Prince and Michael Jackson are gone...
Legends of the 80s
Dennis Sologaistoa THAS RACIS !!! we lost fruity whiteys from the 80s too like george micheal.
Well prince never hurt anybody, unlike MJ
@Corby Dorian but you can say somebody's guilty, even after trials being proved he/she is innocent cause you don't like them.
Double standards? I doubt you think of it that way

@@Cosmogirl014 You trying to hint at something?
Pls don’t tell me y’all wackos aren’t talking about another illuminati conspiracy. People die. Even musicians die. Get over it ffs.
Prines was doing selfies before selfies lol
In booty shorts! !? Lol
Still kinda disturbed that that guy called Prince “weird”. I have never thought him as “weird”. Guess growing up in the 80s makes a huge difference when it comes to perception.
That little millennial don’t know what “weird” is. Everything has been beige his whole life. How sad.
fax this dude has been on youtube for 8 years and has 18 subscribers who is this dude I saw him comment
I always thought of prince as weird. His music was over rated much!
Born in 77 here. Knew a lot about Prince as a kid and growing up and I’ve always said he was weird.
I never thought prince was weird. He had his own unique style. Whether it was his music or his fashion, it suited him. Prince wouldn’t have been prince without it. I liked him from day one.
I love that he was just riding his bike around town in his last days ☮️ sweet
He was also hanging out in the parking lot outside of the local Wahlgreens while someone fetched his pain pill prescriptions. Sad.
@@hejiranyc He should have stuck to proper prescriptions, without any Fentanyl in them. It was the Fentanyl that killed him.

@@dexdigi i see ppl are infatuated with ur box....its ur crown don't ever cut it!!!
Until I saw this and learned that he wanted Paisley Park to be a museum, I had the attitude of "Stay the Hell out of that man's house !!".. I have been Purple since I heard his second album.. I was around 11, or so.. I am now 50 and I can say that Nothing else, musically, had ever impacted me the way Prince's music has.. I am Purple thru & thru.. I hope that when I take my last breath, I am listening to his music.. My wife, of 30 years, knows that and, if possible, she will fulfill my wish.. I still don't think that I could ever go in his house, but maybe someday that will change.. Much Love 2 All the Purple People around the world and all thru the universe.. Peace 2 U
He wasn't weird. He was the most genuine self he could be. I hope more continue to study his work and life- it will- if anything- help them become more comfortable in their skin. To add to that... his life and work will probably inspire someone to learn an instrument.

I know they said he wanted it to be a museum after he passed, but I feel the same way you do... Something about it just doesn't seem right. People touching his things, etc.... I don't know.
I understand how you feel. On the other hand, if anything things like this keep Prince’s memory going. As a fan I love being able to access a piece of him beyond the music I love to play. This is one of my first destinations when the quarantine ends.
Leroysification uh, Elvis...stop hatin🏀
Well he shoulda had his shit together and had a damn will in place.
Oreo Emesis this is the truth it was irresponsible of prince not to have a will its made for a lot of unnessery trouble. its was probably all the pain and drugs he was taking plus nobody would dare to set him straight because they all riding his gravy train.
No one can ever say that about prince he's the G.O.A.T FOR REAL I've been singing prince songs since I was a kid n I ain't that old lol 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I was invited Paisley Park with two of my friends in the early 90”s on many occasions, mostly at 4 or 5am, it was surreal to see him perform on stage with only around 15 people watching; on some nights!! he even let us wander around including the upstairs. I might do a story about it. He was always kind. We were always at Glam Slam upstairs as well. lots of celebrities were there.
Zeekly614 M do you have pictures too????
@@EmmaDee no, I would never have taken any as to honor his privacy.
“Dan has a Strange Relationship with Prince...” I see what you did there.
This guy should not be allowed to give tours of prince house
Prince trusted him to do his autobiography. Why do you think he shouldn't be a tour guide and be telling interesting facts about Prince while he gives you a tour of the place?
Yeah I didnt like his energy and seemingly lack of knowledge about Prince. Would love to see an actual enthusiast doing it and not this...person.
Umm hello - he is just promoting his book. Calm down.
Why?
Be cool man it's ok✌
Prince is still an icon and always will be!
Prince is the GOAT. You can't be the greatest without being different, not weird. Thanks for being you Prince! Stay safe everyone, I'm gonna go listen to Lady Cab Driver!
Prince was my into to music as a kid my mom was and still is his biggest fan. He was the only celebrity that I actually was hurt about when he passed.
When I visited Paisley Park. I can smell his cologne and he is still there.
He is indeed.
♥
Crazy
What was the smell like?
I STILL miss him. There will NEVER be another.
How cool is this? Prince seemed like he pulled for the true under dog, raw talent, genuine and real people.
I will always love Prince Rogers Nelson 💜💔
It wasn’t “a home first and foremost “. It’s a recording studio with an apartment . Between the two of these guys they know Prince enjoyed purple. Great story.
Miss you Prince, you will always be missed. Prince intelligence, swagger, wisdom, spirituality is unique . I wish we had it today! RIP Prince
He was Very Beautifully& Gifted! A Singer,Musician,Dancer, Actor, Fashionista,Song writer,Trend setting!On&On& On.We L💜VE U PRINCE R.I.P.
I feel so lucky that I got to visit in 2004 as part of the NPG Music Club weekend. Private tour (not as much access as now) but special concerts by Prince on the big stage, with Maceo, Larry Graham and Candy Dulfer. And Prince allowed a bunch of us to get on stage and dance. Priceless.
paisley park, for those of us faithful supporters, is home. we were sad everything there has been cancelled temporarily. visiting there and going on the ultimate tour which is considerably more than $50 is unforgettable. prince was a genius and now historical figure who will never be forgotten. there was no better musician and no one more prolific in his output.
Prince wasn't weird he was just unique and ahead of his time. Just like Michael Jackson. Regardless of what happened in their personal life you can never take away the gift and talented they both possess. I would pay $50.00 to tour pasley park. I would pay $100.00 that's history. This man was a Genius.
Prince and MJ aren't alike at all. What an insult to Prince if he read this.
Klēfer Stop with that insult bullshit. Prince and MJ did respect one another and you’re a damn fool for falling for some stupid media stories.
This is what I believe you meant young dude.

Agreed. Think it was nervous laughter
To me, it seemed like they were just jolly/happy and enjoying each others company and the experience. So I would put it down to that.

Who’s this little disrespectful, funny-lookin, pip-squeak calling Prince “weird?” I beg HIS pardon, and get off his ping-pong table Jr. Look. Don’t touch. 💜 👑 ☔️🎶
What was Prince's relationship to him any damn way?
He isn’t old enough for most of his assumptions to be true. I’m 40 and caught the 90’s edition of him. This guy is a baby
Being called weird isnt bad. It means ur different
Y’all boomers need to chill, Prince didn’t have his panties in a knot about shit like this.
@@TC-ym1vk That guy apparently wrote his autobiography. As they were walking through the conference room the book was on the table and they were discussing it. I paid attention to every word said about Prince.
I was their 3yrs ago cryed and danced where he played music This is everything I saw and more .My sister and me went back to hotel and watched every Prince video on RUclips. We jammed for hours had so much fun dancing to Prince in our room .I will go back
Wow prince was really unique!💜♥️🥰
Legend. He will be remembered
Shaun Pattinson being remembered is inherent to legends. Learn English ftw!

felt weird watching this...
Yeah, the poppy music in some cuts feel inappropriate as hell
Same. Idk why, but there was an intrusive and cavalier vibe coming from it that felt slightly disrespectful.
same..
'No will was found...' I'm calling BS
Weird, nostalgia... Usually I feel sad for few hours when favourite celebrities passed away but concerning Prince: I feel I lost a family member I don't know why...
He was also a man who helped people in need. That empathy side and selflessness was never highlighted. His spiritual side also was very powerful. if you listen to and hear his music it's truly
SOUL MUSIC. Just writing this to honor him and perhaps some younger generation can feel his depth and know of his greatness of heart. He was very discreet about his humanitarian side. True greatness.
Thank You Thank you Vice for this♥ My Mom raised me on Prince & died just months before he did & dealing during this pandemic has brought up many memories & emotions w/ so much time to think I've loved watching & listening to him-Thee greatest artist of all time!♥★♥
We really lost Prince man, smfh! It still feels unreal.
wish we actually got a tour of his home.
My sister and I have been to Paisley Park, it was absolutely phenomenal. There are no words. This is a bucket list must do before you die.

Awesome...
Added to my bucket list
Thank you for showing this!
I'm from Scotland, UK and could never get my head around that folk lived not far from him and would see him out and about lol. If I had lived not far from him I would have been hiding in bushes and stalking him hahaha. A bloody genius and beautiful man. I still can't believe he's gone. I'll be heartbroken all my days 💔💔💔 Forever grateful I got to see this man live on stage xx
I live in Minnesota & I am from the Twin Cities. It was an honor to have Prince as one of our own. His death impacted MANY, but us here in Minnesota... it hit hard. I visited his home with friends that were fellow fans (I would go as far to say "Super fan" lol) & left Balloons as well as a note. It wasn't much, but to be there was a great honor & now every time I watch Purple Rain... it's more of a tiny ritual in celebration of his life. Prince was awesome, there will never be another like him.
💜RIP Beautiful one💜
Did they eat pancakes afterwards

He was and will always be a legend and one of a kind! A musical genius who thought outside of the box and wasn't afraid to push the envelope. I hope he enjoyed his last days. He truly deserved happiness for making so many people feel something wonderful listening to his music. 💜
I'll be very honest here, I never liked Prince or his music as a teenager of the 80"s, I was a metal head and still am. It wasn't until his untimely death when I started to watch all the videos people were posting here on RUclips that I realized what a great and talented musician he was, and that's when I said t to myself, wow I really missed out on one of the great ones.
Really cool to see a longer tour of Prince’s iconic home. All sorts of cool vibes and inspiration here! RIP 👑
May we never forget him or his musical greatness
Please do a longer episode on Prince. Your interviewer is so down to earth, it's so interesting to watch him interview people. Vice is my vice.
im a new fan since nov 2021 and prince, is now someone who means alot to me. he's dearly loved and missed
Just imagine if prince was still here during these times of the Coronavirus I believe he would catch up on alot of music he didn't finish because he said on the arsenio hall show there were a lot of songs he was working on that he didn't finish ..he would of recorded so much material that it would be unbelievable
I been wondering what Gerald from hey Arnold was up to
Zeke V apparently not playing ping pong 🏓
@RUclips Is-A-Witch 💀💀
Zeke V 😂😂😂
Shots fired 😂😂☠️
RIP brother..... I listened to Prince when I was growing up in the 80’s and still listen to him today! Great artist!
There will never be another Prince, he was such a special talent, things are always better when you work hard, and dedicate yourself, sacrifice and become part of the vision, in his case the vision is living on , and the rebirth of his craft will continue to shock, amaze and the talent will continue to take on a life of it's on. Rest in Peace, Prince. We miss you, thank you for sharing your music, and giving us something wonderful to continue to listen to. God Bless.
I dreamt of Prince last night. He had made some paintings and wanted to explain them to the future buyers. His paintings were so beautiful but rather dark in colours, but always with a purple part standing out. Loved them. I cant believe his anniversary is today. Sooo weird. So weird.
I had a dream of him also. We was at his home and he was showing me a remix / animated version of beautiful ones. Then he looks me in the eyes and said" the beautiful ones we always seem to lose huh?" I started crying because I recently lost someone close to me then I woke up. This is the 2 time I had a dream of him in this week. It's crazy how it's on his death anniversary also 👀👀👀
Gogo Smalls 😥😥
That's cool dude 👌👍😎
It's always weird dreaming up a celebrity. Long live Prince!
I dreamt that I read this message
RestlessNights you’re going to paint those paintings
Prince is a legend!
Thanks for this.
Prince will never be weird not to me!!💜
Purple Rain was released when I was 21. He was a huge part of the music scene then and became one of the biggest icons of popular music. He oozed sexiness and that swagger and grin will never be replicated. 👑 live on purple reign 💕
I just miss this man .. i cannot imagine what life without his music.. we are fortunate to have witnessed him.
Prince's home looks like an office building from the exterior....
Paisley Park was built in 1987 as a music/film studio complex and office for Paisley Park records. Prince only lived there from the early 2000s until his death.
It's next to office buildings and public storage.I drive by it all the time and it looks really innocuous from the outside
We didnt actually see his "home". We saw his work space.
Yes. (no pun intended)
Prince was not only a phenomenal song writer and persona, he was a very accomplished guitar player. Watch his solo on while my guitar gently weeps he did with Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne. Its mind blowing.
