And that was when he was older. If you wanna see more of the guitar and dancing and piano playing then check out the video titled Play In The Sunshine & Housequake. Best all round talented artist definitely
For me Prince is THE guy. THE musician, THE performer, THE artist, THE guy. He is IT. The argument for the greatest of all time is 100% subjective, and for me it's Prince. You can make arguments for other artists, and i"m not gonna knock anyone who does, but Prince will forever and always be the artist who I think no one will ever touch and will ever come close to touching. He just had it all in a way that no other artist seems to match up to. And im 24 so he's not really even "of my generation" but damn do I miss him and I revere him in a way that no one else comes close to.
There’s so many great Prince songs to discover. Check out ‘The Question of U’ , ‘Bambi’, and ‘‘The Ride” , oh and ‘Empty Room Live 2009 at the Montreaux Jazz Festival’ and his ‘Creep’ at Coachella is a must too.
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 the pouring rain while he sang Purple Rain is by far the most epic moment of my life!
As you know, it was raining during that show. Before he even got to the stadium, his manager asked him if there was anything that he could do for him or to accommodate him better in any way. His reply was, " Make It Rain harder"... priceless, Epic reaction!
Live PRINCE - Motherless Child, The Everlasting Now Leno, Endorphinemachine Live, Peach Live, Bambi Nude Tour 1990 Live, Kiss Paisley Park, Somewhere Here on Earth Leno. Enjoy.
Too many to name, but you can try these: "Santana Medley (live) - Prince & The NPG"; "Bambi (Live at the Tokyo Dome 1990)"; "Creep" - Prince at Coachella 2008"; "Prince Shhh at Coachella"; "Prince Motherless Child Live!"; "Dreamer - Live • Prince" (Jay Leno); "Prince - Stratus & All Shook Up (Montreux Jazz Festival 2009 - Show 2)"; "Prince - Anotherloverholenyohead" (with Rock Lobster instrumental; NFL SB Press Conference 2007) 🎶
Fantastic reaction video. So many great recommendations already. Play that funky music live 2011. Bambi 1990, purple rain both live in Syracuse and at the music awards in 85. Let's go crazy live in 88!!! There is just much Prince history to catch up on. His live shows were the absolute best. There will never be anyone quite like him in the history of music!!
When Prince played Coachella he covered "Come Together" and "Creep". It's bootleg footage, but it's still worth checking out. I also recommend checking out "Purple Rain" and "Let's Go Crazy" from the 1985 Syracuse concert. Good stuff.
I’m sure it’s up here somewhere it was the first time it had rain at the Super Bowl in over 50+ years. Torrential downpour. So they called Prince that morning and they asked if there was anything he wanted to do you know precautionary stuff. Prince’s response “ Can you make it rain harder” This the most epic performance of purple rain
GREATEST OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!! I don't care what anyone says....I don't care about any of the other artists that have done it before him or after. Nothing will match this...EVER!!!
Prince was on pain killers for chronic hip pain caused by years of dancing and jumping off speakers and pianos, etc. wearing 3 inch heels. Probably because he couldn’t get enough pain meds through the doctor he got some other pain pills and some were laced with Fentanyl. He died of an accidental fentanyl overdose 4/21/2016 at the age of 57.
Thank you so much for intelligently explaining Prince’s situation. Some people are stuck on the fact that he was some kind of drug addict lurking in the alley for a fix🤦🏽♀️ That definitely was not the case.
Thank you! I truly wished he had a really good and discreet Pain Management Dr. The anti opioid industry has made that impossible. Almost all street pills are fakes, with illicit fentanyl as their main ingredient. He was managing his pain not chasing a high.
And now you have to return to average halftime shows. The brilliance is on display especially with his choice setlist Coming in with a foot stomping hand clapping intro that evvvverybody knows, plays his well know hits from the. Purple Rain era, Let's Go Crazy, Baby I'm A Star, Purple Rain at the end. Brings in great songs that can be recognized by two different fan bases, check it. 'Proud Mary' - Tina Turner/CCR, 'All Along The Watchtower' - Bob Dylan/Jimi Hendrix 'Best Of You' - Foo Fighters/Dave Grohl Nirvana Tidbits - Purple Rain in the rain, outfit colors a shout out to Miami Dolphins where this Super Bowl is being played, no one was electrocuted, live singing and live instruments with no back up recordings if things went south, the marching band was FAMU marching 100 well know in Florida and another brilliant Prince idea, to this day this performance is still considered the best halftime show ever! Good choice Liv4luv 0(+->
You should watch the Rock and Rock hall of fame performance of While My Guitar Gently Weeps with him, Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne and Steve Winwood. Amazing, just amazing!!!
Prince has been considered a top 20 guitarist for a LONG time. Go google Rolling Stone and other such lists. Ask Billy Gibbons or Eric Clapton what they think of him. Both are on record. Plus, go ahead with any list of the top 50 guitarists. Can ANY of them do all the things he did (playing all the instruments, writing award winning songs for others, dancing like he does, etc.)? "No" is the correct answer. He was the GOAT, bar none.
Most musicians play all their greatest hits when they have the biggest audience in the world. What does Prince do? He plays a bunch of cover tunes. He really only cared about putting on the greatest show with the greatest music that he could.
i think this is a bit like all those artists back in the day like Van Gogh etc.. i mean sure Prince had a bit of success but i just dont know what all the fuss is about, he is of my era and we just called him a poor mans Michael Jackson, we were spoiled for choice back then, to say he is the best ever is a far stretch
NO ONE called him a poor man's Micheal Jackson. They were 2 completely different types of artists. Jackson was a entertainer, Prince was a musician. Micheal didn't play any instruments and didn't write most of his songs. Prince, wrote, produced, played all the instruments, EVERYTHING on his albums. Just because Jackson sold more records, doesn't make him better.
@@glennmccullough4434 just saying it the way it is mate, just because you didnt hear it doesnt mean it didnt happen, back then it was common for artists to play multiple instruments
MJ couldn't hold a candle to Prince...hahaha. MJ was an entertainer...that's it. Prince WAS music. I'm 53 and never ever ever heard the term a poor man's MJ. in fact. We ditch Michael when Prince came out. It was so obvious that he was a superior writer and performer.
@@swgroove he wasnt the best ever, the numbers say it all, i am not saying he wasnt talented i am just saying everyone is making a bigger fuss now than back then, you say you are 53 so you would have been 11 when prince hit the scene, i was in my mid 20's, so i had a better understanding of what was going on then, of course you can look back now and form an opinion its subjective just like mine but mine isnt based on what i read, its based on my experience
Saw him live many times between 1988 and 2014. Nobody came close. There was him and then everyone else.
And that was when he was older. If you wanna see more of the guitar and dancing and piano playing then check out the video titled Play In The Sunshine & Housequake. Best all round talented artist definitely

This fantastic greatest performance in the rain!!!
Dave didn't know he was going to do that song until he saw the performance! He also has a GREAT Prince story of playing with him!
One of the greatest talent and musician of the last decades.
I also love how he interprets covers. He adds his unique flavor; like his impressive cover of Radiohead's CREEP. This Superbowl performance was epic.
As you know, it was raining during that show. Before he even got to the stadium, his manager asked him if there was anything that he could do for him or to accommodate him better in any way. His reply was, " Make It Rain harder"... priceless, Epic reaction!
🌸 I think this is a decent representation of how beloved Prince is to everyone
🌸 he was a true genius and a true professional. there was no one like Prince. 💔 still miss him so much
And that is how I became a fan of the Foo Fighters.
Motherless Child- 3 great guitar solos and the voice- oh my lord.
Live PRINCE - Motherless Child, The Everlasting Now Leno, Endorphinemachine Live, Peach Live, Bambi Nude Tour 1990 Live, Kiss Paisley Park, Somewhere Here on Earth Leno. Enjoy.
☝🏾this person knows what they’re talking about…I’ll add love bizarre live as another if you want to see energetic band conducting lol

In 2007 a football game was played during a Prince concert 🎶

The world felt a little darker that day.😢
So Prince had issues with the Foo Fighters doing Darling Nikki around this time so he played one of their songs in this medley. Awesome
This was the best halftime show ever! This is great first one! ❤
Great to see you back and with such a banger ❤

Foo fightrrs did cover a song from prince Without ask him.
So hé did a cover of the foo fighters like some kind of revenge
Dave Grohl has a GREAT Prince story playing with him. But he was also moved when he saw the Superbowl performance.
You should watch the Rock and Rock hall of fame performance of While My Guitar Gently Weeps with him, Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne and Steve Winwood. Amazing, just amazing!!!

"No" is the correct answer. He was the GOAT, bar none.
He's in the top ten if you ask the top 10 they asked Eric Clapton what it was like to be considered the best he said ask prince
Most musicians play all their greatest hits when they have the biggest audience in the world.
What does Prince do? He plays a bunch of cover tunes. He really only cared about putting on the greatest show with the greatest music that he could.
Oh my friend you really need to go down the Prince journey my friend. Listen to bambi live...I implore you to.
the best of you is Prince's song.
the Foo fighters sang HIS song.
Check out his rock songs ENDORPHIN MACHINE or PEACH💜💜
