The interviewer was way out of his league. Prince has matured and he's not interested in corrupting young minds. As the years rolled by, I loved this cat more and more. He was a genius and so far ahead of his time. He has no equal.
Prince courted publicity, asking journalists to interview him and often travel with the tour. Prince was utilising(using him) the journalists innocence.
I saw a clip when Prince was just starting out. He was at First Avenue Club. He said he would have a place where all his friends could come and hang out, Our he would die trying. I will never forget it. He kept his promise. He was One In A Million. I love him so much. He had a good heart. God, Please take care of our Best Friend Prince.
I don't think he was human. Literately he was, but there's something so powerful and so above about him, no words can ever describe. Beautiful man, and now an angel. He's probably in an entirely new world, and giving them the same gift that we've been given by his existence here on earth. I love you Prince! Thank you for sharing.
I absolutely love how Prince matured as a man and as an artist. The arc of his career went as it should have. He was wild, free and pushed limits and boundaries when he was young as you should but as he matured he was wiser about his impact on the world and became more reserved but never boring or predictable.
@whocaress no ha! That square went full circle and hit all 4 corners at the same damn time. Perhaps your appreciation for good music has limitations. This man will forever stand with all the musical geniuses from Sly and Larry Graham to Michael and Maurice White. #sillyearthling
I love that he saw himself as student and teacher....always willing to learn, always willing to share. The relationship between the two is always reciprocated. He was music, he was love, he was a gift. xo time is not healing this huge loss
+joeyenzo I agree with you. It still feels like it was yesterday. I mean I know I'm not family or a personal friend, but the man's music got me through some life changing experiences from the end of high school with the first album through college and now. I have always talked about us being Geminis and being the same age. I guess we were classmates in a way because his music as he grew help me grow too. I'd like to also point out something he said about his music. We have to listen to his current music with the ear that he's no longer 19 or 20 or even 30. One of his famous words, "if you stay in the same place and never change, you aren't growing. I'm not that young person any more. I've grown through my music." My point, I love it all. Thanks JOEYENZO for pointing out the importance of student and teacher. Love you Prince
Beautifully said Annie. We… as fans… should miss Prince… after all… his music and his songs became intertwined into our lives over decades, so why wouldn’t we miss him terribly.

Prince is so inspiring, after his first time on Bandstand, he had a young boy start playing the drums on bowls pots and pans with the broomstick for a guitar
Not only was he a musical genius, his humble demeanour makes him even bigger than he was. Such an inspiration to us all. Not many musicians can live up to his standard, if any.
Prince is a true legend. No one could ever take his place. He was sensational on the guitar. I could listen to his music all day every. I'm still grieving over his death. He's truly missed! RIH Prince! I luv you!
I am absolute MJ fan but daaamn Prince!! Musician SuperGenius!! Those two were so different yet there was a lot of similarity when you dig deeper about both of them. I admire and respect both, each in a different way.💙 💜 There will never ever exist someone like these two, they were truly God's gift to the world and mankind.
MJ and Prince are 2 separate artists that are completely different. MJ is the classical performance artist of perfection. Prince IS music period. They are both Legend's in their own way and Spirituality is what guided them both. To think of what Prince still had left to create and unfortunately MJ was already torn apart by insecurity in self. Prince did not have an ounce of insecurity, he knew he was Legendary and MJ seemed to constantly battle with himself for a sense of self. Insecurity is worse than a loaded gun to the head.
I feel bad for you. Prince as more talent in his teeth alone compared to mjs entire being. PRN revolutionized the music industry as we knew it. Mj didnt do shit. Mj didn't even play an i instrument, while PRN play every instrument known to mankind. Mj is of Mas poco talent. You couldn't pay me enough to endure an mj talentless concert but I have literally sold everything in my room to go to the dirty mind concert. That happened...FACTUAL
@@KrissyI1973 Prince could play 28 instruments when he was a teenager. He often played all the instruments for his albums in his studio at Paisley Park in Minnesota. Prince was genuine nothing fake about Prince he kept it real. Too bad I didn’t see him in concert, but I enjoy watching the videos. A musical genius!
Prince also wrote several songs for other artists that became their number one song! His Super Bowl halftime performance in pouring rain was the best performance in a FL down pour….
My take on Prince is that he's just like the average person, because he lived a life of struggles and shortcomings. The one thing he seem to have is a sense of humor and I believe he really cared for people more than we could ever know. What artist you know would have private concerts at their home and invite fans with a small fee to enjoy themselves. He was extraordinary with his talent. RIH and jam on.
not to knock prince, but did you know taylor swift sent her fans tons of personal gifts and letters for christmas? she also invites them to her house and special hang outs after shows :)
tanio12 lol I knew someone was going to say something like this. I mentioned Taylor bc the OP stated there isnt another artist who really reaches out to the fans like that and really shows he/she cares. Im just saying taylor swift is one of them. Her music and status is no where near Prince, duh, but shes a really nice girl
+Suzy Six I'm jealous, I've never been to one of his concerts, but I've always loved him. I wish I could of experience his presence. I listen to music, but I haven't heard anyone that can make that guitar sang like he can.
Anna Warner : Yes. We must GIVE Love & Value while they R still here.. Alive. I was a Prince Fan the day I saw 'Purple Rain' & brought everything I could get TWICE that same day. Tho' I've never met him, never saw him in concert, never met any of the bandmates.. same with Michael Jackson.. I did buy tons of their Music & actually saw the Jackson5 at MSG in NYC ages ago. My point is the WORLD adores our #Artists AND #People like me who truly adore them need 2 SEE them more in PERSON cause they R homegrown like us. Love is a verb. 🌎❤️⚖🎉✨
The host Steven Hill must have been embarrassed when Prince had to remind him to introduce himself. The more of these videos and interviews that I see of Prince the more respect and admiration I have for him. The part of the interview when Mr Hill begged him to perform Erotic City and Dirty Mind. Prince's explanation was beautiful and showed maturity and caring about the younger generation. Excellent response from a musical genius.
Mad respect for him saying that he wouldn't play those songs anymore with 13y/o in the audience. He said he is older (and much wiser) so he looks at those songs in a different way now. Told him to play his records.
Only once unfortunately. But the first of the last of his good series of shows. I've got a ranking of good concerts and then there's that concert lonely at the Mount Everest of experiences. He was on fire.
Prince the genius of music, showmanship, performance, movie, concert, inventor and beautiful soul inside and out, you will for damn sure be missed by millions.
I've always considered myself a founder of Paisley Park because I bought and love his music. Thanks Prince for giving me a respite from the hardship of everyday life. You're the best......
+ChiknThighTatorPie that's so cool I never seen him in concert that is a major regret you was lucky to c him at lease you got to see him before God call him home I can only dream of him RIP prince luv ya
Musicology is and will always be one of my favorite Prince eras. That tour in L.A. was the first concert video that I saw of his, and it just blew me away. I saw him in 2012 in Chicago and he performed "Musicology." It blew me away! Although I never knew him in person, he and I connected on a much higher spiritual level on that evening. As he would put it, there was a "New Power" in the room on that night. He Is the greatest and I consider him to be my best friend. He imparted so much on me as a fellow musician and person. But Jesus had greater works than these in store for him, and that's why he called him home. He is a gift pure gift from God, nothing more and nothing less. It was so nice of him to loan him to us for a little while, before he called him home. To my dear friend Prince: Prince, what can I say? I thought/think about you day and night. You are my world. You shaped my personality and spirituality. I will always love and adore you until the end of all time. Thank you for all of the years of music that you shared and will continue to share with us, you are more than generous. And thanks for the single greatest nigh of my life, for I will cherish it until the end of all time! The flesh will miss you, but I know that you're with our father now, and he knows what's best. Who are we to keep you from paradise? I long for the day that I meet you face to face in heaven, I can't wait! Until that beautiful day dawns, rest in peace; "Welcome 2 the dawn," my Prince!
Music IS a gift from God, Prince was sooo right. R. I. P. Prince. You were a precious gift from God, too. Now you are immortal...living in our hearts and minds for all time.
I liked what he said about not playing his freakier songs live because of the responsibility of younger ears being about; he didn't think about it when he was younger.
+ArcaneThingOfBeauty Why is it that when people feel they are at an older age...and they might die any time...or turn to God that they have to be more cautious of the songs that were performed in their young days! It was not a bad thing...it is what made him Prince...and I think he should just celebrate it no matter what ! The thing I find he did not understand about the younger age group now...is singing songs way more mature than their age. Take for example Justin Beiber at 13 he came out with "Baby be mine". So singing Erotic City is not going to put a damper in today's society with the young generations! I think music...will always soothes the soul no matter what age.....if it's got a good beat....words sounds good....and it's a hit...well then it's all good! Plus let's keep in mind that music from back in the days did not have wearing lyrics like it does today...even with the rappin back in the days was clean...but not like now!
angelina delila Truth be told, he still talked about sex in his music AFTER 'gettin saved', he just toned it down and stopped cussing. Might as well kept on performing "P Control" and "Head", if you ask me.
angelina delila Teenagers are gonna be horny no matter who is or isn't singing about raunchy sex lol; maybe he feels that after 40 it looks ridiculous, too. I'm not sayin' he should've came out in zebra print panties like when he was 19, but maybe he thought he was too old to be gettin' wild on stage. He could still sing rawest classics, though.
+Phyllis Hall I hear ya. Doesn't it feels that he lives on? There is so much alertness and awareness in Prince's spirit that somehow he transcends his bodily's passing to remain with the world.
+Phyllis Hall The big factor is also the deprivation of Prince from the mainstream media of today, the internet, for decades. Today since he's not living, there is no longer the need for him to protect his work in order to make a living. Now it really is about sharing his art. This makes him so precious, like diamond that is hidden away in the mountains that only now we just start diggin. All this media is totally new stuffs to be aired online.
i give a damn what anybody says, i belong in PRINCE. i don`t believe in god but every day i praise him, for having him....and i am so thankfull to life at the same livetime.some day they will say, do you remember this guy who set the world on fire?? and i can say ,yes i was with him.so we know what we know..... PEACE and b WILD!!!!!!
S Theriot believe me you are not the only one to recognize his greatness after his death. Many people have been saying the same thing. It is sad that its only when someone dies we realise just what we have lost.
I'm 8 years younger then Prince and I play guitar some ya know, but not in my wildest dreams could I make music even close to the way Prince could. He was without a doubt world class.
There are some people in our lifetime that just touch another human without physically interacting with them. I think of prince often. He impacts so many souls and each one in their very own personal way. He is passion and talent, he is love and he is legendary. He is beautiful and makes this world a better place. I use the present tense as I write this because Prince will never die as long as he is in the hearts that he touches.💜
AUGH, this show is such a perfect example of how in every way, he was so generous to his audiences -- he INCLUDED them in everything he did. Someone that blazingly talented, energetic and prolific didn't have to hand over entire choruses for the audience to sing, or chat with them spontaneously in the middle of his songs, but he DID, because he believed in music as a unifying force, and of course it created just a stream of love and connection flowing back and forth from them to him. He radiated that charisma and compassion in so many ways...auuuuugh how can he be gone?!?!? I can't. Nope.
I regret not seeing him live. I will never forget the party in Texas where I commandeered the stereo.I slipped in the 1999 cassette tape. Everyone thought the music was strange and I was even stranger! I bought his early albums. I listened to them every chance I got. I saw Purple Rain. I had no idea he played every instrument and he demanded to produce his own albums. With fame he was showing more of his personality. I didn't know the reason he had that attitude. I did not realize the depth of his talent. I did not know how good he was to his fans or the struggles he went through with the industry. I stopped following his career. My loss definitely. It has been amazing to learn his life story. It is sobering to think someone as healthy as he was would need hip surgery. How much he gave of his body performing that he was in pain. I will not judge him for taking pain medicine. It is so hard to deal with Chronic pain. Chronic pain is not a addict disease it is a human condition. It is easy to become addicted when one is dealing with pain and still working. I wish he had been able to get him help. I wish those around him were not so worried about his image. There is a difference between dependance on opiates vs true addiction. The problem is it is easy to cross that line and the pain is real. Rest in peace true Prince of our dreams. You have left this veil of tears (the human experience). There is no more pain or suffering for you. You are missed.
Every time I see one of these live performances, I am blown away (but not surprised) by the amount of energy he gives to and demands from his audience. It seems like he is the host of the best party in the world, and he takes a personal interest to make sure EVERYONE is having the best time of their lives...including his band members. Because of this, and the love I have always have for his music, it makes me that much sadder that I couldn't make it to one of his parties...Miss U 4Ever, our Purple Majesty.
I've said it since Purple Rain, Prince is one of the most under rated guitar players ever & he was the best of my generation & one of the best ever to play guitar.. R.I.P You will be missed, loved & forever remembered....
The best ever better than them all Hendrix Santana Clapton Perry Lyndsey BB Van Halen Richards he was all in one & that's only on guitar next we should talk about piano & then drums
I think he was known for his guitar! Some may have secretly resented his talent, but he was so personable & giving, found it hard not to like him. Many of the "greats" pointed to Prince as the greatest, including Eric Clapton. He was asked once how it felt to be the greatest guitar player alive and he said "I wouldn't know, its Prince you should ask". (may not be exact words, but close) I saw a clip. He also had a phenomenal vocal range, piano & as you know dozens of other instraments. I think he grew up like many Americans, fractured family, not a lot of support or love, but in a way it fueled his desire & determination to develop his gift: love of music & entertaining. He had a fantastic sense of humor & love of life. The humor helps people like us that come from dysfunctional families get through life easier. He turned into a musical phenomenon, master entertainer, with his personality there were no others like him. I've seen many bands in concert over the years, many were awesome, gifted & very entertaining, but none were Prince. As he matured he only got bettered and that's saying a lot cuz I saw some awesome bands over the years! It still amazes (but not surprises) me how much he's affecting everyone, even after he's been gone for over a year. That says a lot about a person. He was definitely his own man, did things his way, but he shared himself with us. 💜💜 Peace. He will always be missed. At least he has his kids now.
...and I still can't listen to Sometimes It Snows In April without crying. Hugs and Purple Kisses to my Purple Family that can relate to these feelings 😘
I love watching him perform overall, but I find where he is one on one with the audience with nothing but his acoustic guitar the most pleasing to watch... Wonderful...and so sad... Gone way too soon...
Stevie Wonder said,"If Micheal was the King of pop then Prince should be the Emperor" I AGREE WHOLE HEARTEDLY..we will not see another of his caliber,, at least not in our lifetime but that's alright because with this vast library of Music, Performances, and Interviews the Brother's brand of Musicology will properly instruct the next group of Funk Emperors and Kings for generations to come..C,R,E,A,M. Creative.Real, Everlasting. Artistic Music Always rises to the top. therefore, Always Wins!!
This is so good! I don't think I've ever heard him just sing by himself with no big show going on behind him. I guess having the band and dancers added to the showmanship factor he was known for, but this acoustic performance is more touching and beautiful.
Prince was on a completely different level. Prince could play every single instrument that was put before him. He excelled at piano, guitar, bass guitar, and drums. No one will EVER incorporate music like The Prince.
"Ain't no sense in voting, same soul with a different name. What's wrong with the world today?" Man, that just says it all doesn't it? Simply loved this more than I can express here Joey. Bless You and thank you so much for sharing. What a musical memory.
YHWH...I agree. I love MJ too and have much respect for his talents as an artist and entainer, but he really doesn't hold a candle to Prince's multi-talents/gifts. Prince was the total package and more! Love and miss him so much.
I was all good until....13:05 then I began to cry. "Sometimes it snows in April.. sometimes it feels so bad...sometimes I wish that life were ever lasting....all good things they say never last." April 21-RIP Prince. You are missed with much sadness.
Loved This it had me crying during it snows in April😪😪-My mom died in Dec. her name was April & she Adore'd Prince & Raised me on his Music-He has influenced me then & now even more so, I know she would've been devastated if she were here on Earth once he died! Hearing his music brings me So many memories! All good things they say Never Last...😪✌💜🙏☔ #RIPPrince & mommy 🙏
Not only is Prince my favorite singer/musician ever, but we also share something else in common. We both had terrible childhood experiences. He was epileptic also and got made fun of all through school...at least he understood what I went through. Miss him so much, every time I hear him sing 'Sometimes it Snows in April' I break down in tears. 😭
I only heard in an interview he had epilepsy. At 5 he told his mother an angel came and told him he would not be sick anymore, he recalled his mother telling him. I love The Most Beautiful Girl.....dammm
Yes. We must have watched the same interview, I wish my epilepsy went away when I was young. I had to have surgery in order for it to go away...after 20 yrs....it sucked big time.😋
***** Yes it sure is same interview. Take some comfort in knowing this Genius our Prince did suffer and I am sure hoping that angel did appear to him at age of 5. I am sick to death of people on here spreading untruths b/c TMZ reported it. I hope he is with His Lord. He gave so much love to so many. Peace and Blessings to you.
Prince was such a iconic musician and artistic entertainer! I am so glad I have his music to keep his memory alive. He was so talented and I'm so sad that I will never get to see him perform again. Thank You Sweet Prince for sharing your artistry and music with the world!
He had a great sense of humour - loved how he engaged with the audience, singing acoustically. Prince was a GENIUS! He needed no gimmicks. Just brilliance! 🌻
When Michael Jackson died I was devastated, not just because he was such a wonderful performer but because of the person he was. Then I thought well we still have Prince, who was equally a wonderful entertainer and talented also in so many ways. Then I saw interviews of Prince and loved him too because like Michael he seemed so concerned about humanity. So now to lose him too seems so sad, not for me but for the world as a whole. Watching his pure talent on this video saddens me even more as we will no longer be graced by his presence. Rest in Peace Prince! xo
+rumbapassion That is exactly how I feel. All the uploading of videos, Interviews and news is making me terribly upset each time. Just to be able to see everything..... The Impact is huge!!! He was the Music.. XO
+AQuilla Fearon Absolutely, such a great loss to see we have lost the two most greatest entertainers of our time, passing away so young. Prince was so funky and a sweetheart! xoxo
rumbapassion and most of all a humanitarian. The stories how he helped people without them knowing. He just couldn't stand by and see people struggling or suffering without doing something!! What a man, what a legend, what a genius we have lost. 💜
The classiest genius this world has ever known!!! Beautiful human being....So complex...There are no descriptive words that could ever truly define him!! He cannot be explained!!
Gone But Not Forgotten..RIP Prince You Set The Bar High.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉

the world always shines alittle bit dimmer when a light like this goes out.
He could've had an entire career as just a jazz musician, or a rock musician, or an R&B artist. He did all of it!
And did it well!
I want him back with us. Still crying. :(

From 1985 until his death he never had a major hit..over 30 years..like Michael Jackson long gone..thanks for the memories..
Coolest, smoothest, sexiest man there ever was. Hands down. I will mourn the loss of this incredible genius forever. 💜
+Sophisme Nothing Compares 2 PRINCE! No one ever will come close. I will miss him forever!!

Me too
his sheepish smile when he says he wrote Cream looking in the mirror. Him turning the mic to the audience to sing. just everything about this
Sexy as hell
Prince interrupting interviewer: "you're supposed to introduce yourself"
LMAO
priceless.
He is everything.
Vintage Prince.....haha!
😢
😂
There has never been nor will there ever be again a more sexy man, nor one with as much talent. He was and is one of a kind and is supremely missed
The day he died the astrophysicists registered a massive loss of talent in the Universe.
When we lost Prince, it was like we lost a piece of American soul...
We did.
We Lost a piece of human's soul .
He died alone that's sad 😢...wish I was with him. Damn

His beauty is still unmatched today! PRINCE! Perfect name for him. Love and miss him. Continue RIP Beloved Prince.❤️
Prince. Never knew how to read music either. Played all instruments by ear.
I can watch him forever. He was amazing, and his death hit me so hard.

+LaindiaC I know how you feel. Can't stop thinking about it and prayers to his loved ones.
Hit me hard too. 😢
Me as well so very very very very hard 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

not to knock prince, but did you know taylor swift sent her fans tons of personal gifts and letters for christmas? she also invites them to her house and special hang outs after shows :)
tanio12 lol I knew someone was going to say something like this. I mentioned Taylor bc the OP stated there isnt another artist who really reaches out to the fans like that and really shows he/she cares. Im just saying taylor swift is one of them. Her music and status is no where near Prince, duh, but shes a really nice girl
+Suzy Six I'm jealous, I've never been to one of his concerts, but I've always loved him. I wish I could of experience his presence. I listen to music, but I haven't heard anyone that can make that guitar sang like he can.
100% real music there will never be another prince
Tina McDaniels preach ! He was a very rare human 💜💜
Yes! Another Prince?! Never,never,never! 😢
"I'm Music" - yes Price was an omnipotent music. We did not respect him as much as we should while he was still alive. He was one of a kind.
Anna Warner : Yes. We must GIVE Love & Value while they R still here.. Alive.
I was a Prince Fan the day I saw 'Purple Rain' & brought everything I could get TWICE that same day. Tho' I've never met him, never saw him in concert, never met any of the bandmates.. same with Michael Jackson.. I did buy tons of their Music & actually saw the Jackson5 at MSG in NYC ages ago.
My point is the WORLD adores our #Artists AND #People like me who truly adore them need 2 SEE them more in PERSON cause they R homegrown like us. Love is a verb. 🌎❤️⚖🎉✨
Anna Warner I did.....
Speak for yourself. I'm from Minneapolis and he was the heart and soul of our city.
Speak for yourself!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

The host Steven Hill must have been embarrassed when Prince had to remind him to introduce himself. The more of these videos and interviews that I see of Prince the more respect and admiration I have for him. The part of the interview when Mr Hill begged him to perform Erotic City and Dirty Mind. Prince's explanation was beautiful and showed maturity and caring about the younger generation. Excellent response from a musical genius.
Prince looked gorgeous in anything he was dressed in, but when he wears Red, he looks fierce and gorgeous. He was so talented and loved bye all.
Those few words don't even begin to describe the man, the legend that is PRINCE.
Mad respect for him saying that he wouldn't play those songs anymore with 13y/o in the audience. He said he is older (and much wiser) so he looks at those songs in a different way now. Told him to play his records.
I miss prince so much I wish he was still here
I'm so blessed to have seen him twice in concert
Only once unfortunately.
But the first of the last of his good series of shows.
I've got a ranking of good concerts and then there's that concert lonely at the Mount Everest of experiences.
He was on fire.
Prince the genius of music, showmanship, performance, movie, concert, inventor and beautiful soul inside and out, you will for damn sure be missed by millions.
soul hearted agreed 💯💔 l watch his videos every day and remember those times and where and what l was doing then. "Pure Greatness"!!❤️🎸🌹
I've always considered myself a founder of Paisley Park because I bought and love his music. Thanks Prince for giving me a respite from the hardship of everyday life. You're the best......
what a great man he was , musically, vocally and privately. Sad i never got so see him perform
I know right
saw him in paris 1999 bataclan astonishing
+Dirk Diggler atlanta 04/14/2016 1st show. incredible.
+ChiknThighTatorPie that's so cool I never seen him in concert that is a major regret you was lucky to c him at lease you got to see him before God call him home I can only dream of him RIP prince luv ya
Atlanta both shows are available on bootleg CDs if you want the souvenir :)
Timeless, magical, soulful, cool, suave, talented, extraordinarily mystical and influential.
Musicology is and will always be one of my favorite Prince eras. That tour in L.A. was the first concert video that I saw of his, and it just blew me away. I saw him in 2012 in Chicago and he performed "Musicology." It blew me away! Although I never knew him in person, he and I connected on a much higher spiritual level on that evening. As he would put it, there was a "New Power" in the room on that night. He Is the greatest and I consider him to be my best friend. He imparted so much on me as a fellow musician and person. But Jesus had greater works than these in store for him, and that's why he called him home. He is a gift pure gift from God, nothing more and nothing less. It was so nice of him to loan him to us for a little while, before he called him home. To my dear friend Prince: Prince, what can I say? I thought/think about you day and night. You are my world. You shaped my personality and spirituality. I will always love and adore you until the end of all time. Thank you for all of the years of music that you shared and will continue to share with us, you are more than generous. And thanks for the single greatest nigh of my life, for I will cherish it until the end of all time! The flesh will miss you, but I know that you're with our father now, and he knows what's best. Who are we to keep you from paradise? I long for the day that I meet you face to face in heaven, I can't wait! Until that beautiful day dawns, rest in peace; "Welcome 2 the dawn," my Prince!
Music IS a gift from God, Prince was sooo right. R. I. P. Prince. You were a precious gift from God, too. Now you are immortal...living in our hearts and minds for all time.
And since he IS music, he IS a gift from God we were truly blessed to receive!🙏🏾💜🎶

He is so smooth, it's ridiculous..
It's been 5 months and I still cannot believe he's not out there somewhere traveling & still creating beautiful music. His loss still hurts. 💔
I liked what he said about not playing his freakier songs live because of the responsibility of younger ears being about; he didn't think about it when he was younger.
+ArcaneThingOfBeauty Why is it that when people feel they are at an older age...and they might die any time...or turn to God that they have to be more cautious of the songs that were performed in their young days! It was not a bad thing...it is what made him Prince...and I think he should just celebrate it no matter what ! The thing I find he did not understand about the younger age group now...is singing songs way more mature than their age. Take for example Justin Beiber at 13 he came out with "Baby be mine". So singing Erotic City is not going to put a damper in today's society with the young generations! I think music...will always soothes the soul no matter what age.....if it's got a good beat....words sounds good....and it's a hit...well then it's all good! Plus let's keep in mind that music from back in the days did not have wearing lyrics like it does today...even with the rappin back in the days was clean...but not like now!
angelina delila Truth be told, he still talked about sex in his music AFTER 'gettin saved', he just toned it down and stopped cussing. Might as well kept on performing "P Control" and "Head", if you ask me.
ArcaneThingOfBeauty good to know...cause I sure would hate to know that my man gave all that up just because he was getting older and close to God!
angelina delila Teenagers are gonna be horny no matter who is or isn't singing about raunchy sex lol; maybe he feels that after 40 it looks ridiculous, too. I'm not sayin' he should've came out in zebra print panties like when he was 19, but maybe he thought he was too old to be gettin' wild on stage. He could still sing rawest classics, though.
Then again, he was a Jehovah's Witness during this interview. There is certain sexual laws that apply once you become a JW
It's been three weeks and there's still not a single day that I don't indulge on Prince videos. See you in the next life, Prince.
+Phyllis Hall I hear ya. Doesn't it feels that he lives on? There is so much alertness and awareness in Prince's spirit that somehow he transcends his bodily's passing to remain with the world.
+Jarutat Snidwongse
You are so right
+Phyllis Hall The big factor is also the deprivation of Prince from the mainstream media of today, the internet, for decades. Today since he's not living, there is no longer the need for him to protect his work in order to make a living. Now it really is about sharing his art. This makes him so precious, like diamond that is hidden away in the mountains that only now we just start diggin. All this media is totally new stuffs to be aired online.
me too!
Jarutat Snidwongse i must have some Prince everday. serious jones.
He can be funny,then serious. So versatile and extremely talented 😆his presence will be forever remembered
i give a damn what anybody says, i belong in PRINCE. i don`t believe in god but every day i praise him, for having him....and i am so thankfull to life at the same livetime.some day they will say, do you remember this guy who set the world on fire?? and i can say ,yes i was with him.so we know what we know..... PEACE and b WILD!!!!!!
Student then Master. He is a great example for all.
He was so talented...sexy! He was the whole package. One of the greatest performers.
Acoustic "CREAM" is the BEST I've ever heard! He was so amazing!
I love when he was asked about Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber and his response was "errr I make music..." lol
He's absolutely right. They might sing, but he actually makes music where they do not.
Haha burn! YES! Justin can go suck it! Lady Gaga is great though, but she's not on his level.
I have always been a fan but I cannot believe that it took his death for me to see his true greatness. I think I will miss you everyday, forever!!!!
+S. Theriot I think same
me too!
You took the words out of my mouth I'm still so devastated tears never seem to stop rolling down from my eyes. Everything reminds me of him 😪💜☔️♐️🕊
S Theriot believe me you are not the only one to recognize his greatness after his death. Many people have been saying the same thing. It is sad that its only when someone dies we realise just what we have lost.
S. Theriot I think most of us feel that way. truly lost GREATNESS
I'm 8 years younger then Prince and I play guitar some ya know, but not in my wildest dreams could I make music even close to the way Prince could. He was without a doubt world class.
There are some people in our lifetime that just touch another human without physically interacting with them. I think of prince often. He impacts so many souls and each one in their very own personal way. He is passion and talent, he is love and he is legendary. He is beautiful and makes this world a better place. I use the present tense as I write this because Prince will never die as long as he is in the hearts that he touches.💜
AUGH, this show is such a perfect example of how in every way, he was so generous to his audiences -- he INCLUDED them in everything he did. Someone that blazingly talented, energetic and prolific didn't have to hand over entire choruses for the audience to sing, or chat with them spontaneously in the middle of his songs, but he DID, because he believed in music as a unifying force, and of course it created just a stream of love and connection flowing back and forth from them to him. He radiated that charisma and compassion in so many ways...auuuuugh how can he be gone?!?!? I can't. Nope.
Well put!!!
I regret not seeing him live. I will never forget the party in Texas where I commandeered the stereo.I slipped in the 1999 cassette tape. Everyone thought the music was strange and I was even stranger! I bought his early albums. I listened to them every chance I got. I saw Purple Rain. I had no idea he played every instrument and he demanded to produce his own albums. With fame he was showing more of his personality. I didn't know the reason he had that attitude. I did not realize the depth of his talent. I did not know how good he was to his fans or the struggles he went through with the industry. I stopped following his career. My loss definitely. It has been amazing to learn his life story. It is sobering to think someone as healthy as he was would need hip surgery. How much he gave of his body performing that he was in pain. I will not judge him for taking pain medicine. It is so hard to deal with Chronic pain. Chronic pain is not a addict disease it is a human condition. It is easy to become addicted when one is dealing with pain and still working. I wish he had been able to get him help. I wish those around him were not so worried about his image. There is a difference between dependance on opiates vs true addiction. The problem is it is easy to cross that line and the pain is real. Rest in peace true Prince of our dreams. You have left this veil of tears (the human experience). There is no more pain or suffering for you. You are missed.
elchachasinda OMG...what u juss said was EVERYTHING!!!
D Patterson Thank you! People usually get pissed off by what I say lol. :D
elchachasinda ; )
Every time I see one of these live performances, I am blown away (but not surprised) by the amount of energy he gives to and demands from his audience. It seems like he is the host of the best party in the world, and he takes a personal interest to make sure EVERYONE is having the best time of their lives...including his band members.
Because of this, and the love I have always have for his music, it makes me that much sadder that I couldn't make it to one of his parties...Miss U 4Ever, our Purple Majesty.
"You got the record, part-nah!" I fell out! LOL! 💜💜💜💜💜
"You're supposed to introduce yourself"- ever the pro.
I've said it since Purple Rain, Prince is one of the most under rated guitar players ever & he was the best of my generation & one of the best ever to play guitar.. R.I.P You will be missed, loved & forever remembered....
spot on
The best ever better than them all Hendrix Santana Clapton Perry Lyndsey BB Van Halen Richards he was all in one & that's only on guitar next we should talk about piano & then drums
Ashfaq Aslam
It is evident that you know nothing about music
Spot on brother
I think he was known for his guitar! Some may have secretly resented his talent, but he was so personable & giving, found it hard not to like him. Many of the "greats" pointed to Prince as the greatest, including Eric Clapton. He was asked once how it felt to be the greatest guitar player alive and he said "I wouldn't know, its Prince you should ask". (may not be exact words, but close) I saw a clip.
He also had a phenomenal vocal range, piano & as you know dozens of other instraments. I think he grew up like many Americans, fractured family, not a lot of support or love, but in a way it fueled his desire & determination to develop his gift: love of music & entertaining. He had a fantastic sense of humor & love of life. The humor helps people like us that come from dysfunctional families
get through life easier. He turned into a musical phenomenon, master entertainer, with his personality there were no others like him. I've seen many bands in concert over the years, many were awesome, gifted & very entertaining, but none were Prince. As he matured he only got bettered and that's saying a lot cuz I saw some awesome bands over the years!
It still amazes (but not surprises) me how much he's affecting everyone, even after he's been gone for over a year. That says a lot about a person. He was definitely his own man, did things his way, but he shared himself with us. 💜💜 Peace. He will always be missed. At least he has his kids now.
Prince Roger Nelson the greatest of all time.
"you got the record patna" Love this man
...and I still can't listen to Sometimes It Snows In April without crying. Hugs and Purple Kisses to my Purple Family that can relate to these feelings 😘
I saw the musically tour, live had 2nd row seats....who knew it was a highlight moment of life?
Musicology
+Felicia Williams one of my absolute fave CD EVER
I could look at him all day serious especially with this look he look very handsome classy like old hollywood
I agree i love him so much
@Cleo YES. Such a beautiful man, inside and out. He does things to me that I can't even describe in words 😆😍😛
Sophisme lol!!! he did that to me too .well he used to so sad
+Sophisme I had to change my name cuz some people be crazy
Totally agree
I love watching him perform overall, but I find where he is one on one with the audience with nothing but his acoustic guitar the most pleasing to watch... Wonderful...and so sad... Gone way too soon...
Stevie Wonder said,"If Micheal was the King of pop then Prince should be the Emperor" I AGREE WHOLE HEARTEDLY..we will not see another of his caliber,, at least not in our lifetime but that's alright because with this vast library of Music, Performances, and Interviews the Brother's brand of Musicology will properly instruct the next group of Funk Emperors and Kings for generations to come..C,R,E,A,M. Creative.Real, Everlasting. Artistic Music Always rises to the top. therefore, Always Wins!!
I agree with Stevie. I still love my man MJ.
This is so good! I don't think I've ever heard him just sing by himself with no big show going on behind him. I guess having the band and dancers added to the showmanship factor he was known for, but this acoustic performance is more touching and beautiful.
Royal academy
What an absolute genius! Without Prince the world has lost its brightness.Thanks for sharing.
Cream acoustic was 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽 luv his sense of humor thou🙊🤗 he will be missed🙏🏼
+Twilightchic143 One of my favorite segments
Twilightchic143 l
Prince was on a completely different level. Prince could play every single instrument that was put before him. He excelled at piano, guitar, bass guitar, and drums. No one will EVER incorporate music like The Prince.
There will never be another. Missing this beautiful soul on earth.
I love Prince so much.
I'm Crying....tears of Cosmic Joy... to Know the Love of Music via PRINCE
You could see he’s not a performer he’s truly a artist.. he cared for those fans..
"Ain't no sense in voting, same soul with a different name. What's wrong with the world today?" Man, that just says it all doesn't it? Simply loved this more than I can express here Joey. Bless You and thank you so much for sharing. What a musical memory.
+Rose Barnes wether you acknowledge it or believe or not is irrelevant.....
You are a Badass 🌹🇺🇸🍀
libbi m.
Rose, yes it does, especially today those are profound lyrics with lots of meaning
+Kandi Kane. MJ couldn't play an instrument. MJ will never be in the same league as PRINCE. MJ was a singer, PRINCE is a Musician....Ase'
YHWH...I agree. I love MJ too and have much respect for his talents as an artist and entainer, but he really doesn't hold a candle to Prince's multi-talents/gifts. Prince was the total package and more! Love and miss him so much.
I was all good until....13:05 then I began to cry. "Sometimes it snows in April.. sometimes it feels so bad...sometimes I wish that life were ever lasting....all good things they say never last." April 21-RIP Prince. You are missed with much sadness.
+Cheryl Mc Crickard I agree.. that song gets me every time ... and I always end up in tears.
I'm very agree with him that's what I say everyday.

just prince and his guitar..a dream come true I'd probably freak out...I still can't believe he's gone..my love flies to you on angels wings..
This brother!!!! WAS BAD!!!!! AWESOME! I mean daggg no words describe him!! PRINCE is music and MUSIC is Prince!! I could watch him ALL day!!!!
..... HUGE
God rest is Soul 💓💜
Loved This it had me crying during it snows in April😪😪-My mom died in Dec. her name was April & she Adore'd Prince & Raised me on his Music-He has influenced me then & now even more so, I know she would've been devastated if she were here on Earth once he died! Hearing his music brings me So many memories! All good things they say Never Last...😪✌💜🙏☔ #RIPPrince & mommy 🙏
A spirit so beautiful.....He will be missed dearly.
Damn. What a talent. Still can't believe he's no more.
Rest in peace beautiful soul. Rock on Prince
He looks gorgeus!! And his voice is so masculine love to listen to. Rip prince l wish l had THE chance to meet you😔
I feel you. Everytime I hear his beautiful deep silky smooth voice, it makes me stop Everytime and it leaves me unfocused. ❤
Not only is Prince my favorite singer/musician ever, but we also share something else in common. We both had terrible childhood experiences. He was epileptic also and got made fun of all through school...at least he understood what I went through. Miss him so much, every time I hear him sing 'Sometimes it Snows in April' I break down in tears. 😭
I only heard in an interview he had epilepsy. At 5 he told his mother an angel came and told him he would not be sick anymore, he recalled his mother telling him. I love The Most Beautiful Girl.....dammm
Yes. We must have watched the same interview, I wish my epilepsy went away when I was young. I had to have surgery in order for it to go away...after 20 yrs....it sucked big time.😋
***** Yes it sure is same interview. Take some comfort in knowing this Genius our Prince did suffer and I am sure hoping that angel did appear to him at age of 5. I am sick to death of people on here spreading untruths b/c TMZ reported it. I hope he is with His Lord. He gave so much love to so many. Peace and Blessings to you.
Lorraine Rotundo Steele which interview was this?
Prince was such a iconic musician and artistic entertainer! I am so glad I have his music to keep his memory alive. He was so talented and I'm so sad that I will never get to see him perform again. Thank You Sweet Prince for sharing your artistry and music with the world!
"You got the record, partner!"...Prince
Gosh...still cannot believe he gone from this earth. But he is no doubt alive and well 💜
i wish i had the talent that Prince has in his little finger lol!! the MAN!!
April 21 was sooo bad. RIP Prince... His Royal Badness
"Ain't nothin Affirmative about your Action until my people get paid!" Prince is preachin'! Rest In Peace, P.
He is so loved & missed! Unmatchable talent & humor!
So long brother. God bless you and the gifts you left us. Love you Prince. Hope you and Michael are hanging out together.
This is so rare: I haven't yet come across negative comments about Prince on all those YT videos...
ALL LOVE.....
He had a great sense of humour - loved how he engaged with the audience, singing acoustically. Prince was a GENIUS! He needed no gimmicks. Just brilliance! 🌻
Special, special person ........ irreplaceable indeed :((((( Hard to watch him knowing he is not here anymore:(((
OMG! He's the finest man ive ever seen in my life!! God made no mistakes when he made Prince...
When Michael Jackson died I was devastated, not just because he was such a wonderful performer but because of the person he was. Then I thought well we still have Prince, who was equally a wonderful entertainer and talented also in so many ways. Then I saw interviews of Prince and loved him too because like Michael he seemed so concerned about humanity. So now to lose him too seems so sad, not for me but for the world as a whole. Watching his pure talent on this video saddens me even more as we will no longer be graced by his presence. Rest in Peace Prince! xo
+rumbapassion That is exactly how I feel. All the uploading of videos, Interviews and news is making me terribly upset each time. Just to be able to see everything..... The Impact is huge!!! He was the Music.. XO
+AQuilla Fearon Absolutely, such a great loss to see we have lost the two most greatest entertainers of our time, passing away so young. Prince was so funky and a sweetheart! xoxo
rumbapassion and most of all a humanitarian. The stories how he helped people without them knowing. He just couldn't stand by and see people struggling or suffering without doing something!! What a man, what a legend, what a genius we have lost. 💜
I think michael admired prince so much that he named his son 'prince' . I am a mj fan but i also love prince.
The classiest genius this world has ever known!!! Beautiful human being....So complex...There are no descriptive words that could ever truly define him!! He cannot be explained!!
Prince was GIFT from God. He said " I am a music " Love Him💜🧡....
