One of the top 5 artists in musical history. He could do it all-dance,write,sing,and was an amazing guitar player.

I can knock the first four beats to When Doves Cry on my desk and every single person my age will recognize it.

Terrible terrible day for music lovers.

I know this is not one of his songs, but Prince was so so talented. He took this George Harrison solo and absolutely destroyed it (starts @ 3:28)!

RIP Prince

If they don't start his funeral with "Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to get through this thing called life" then they just won't be doing it right.

This kind of sucks.




Also, only one of the Big Three '80s pop stars still standing. Ironically, they were three of the music acts of the era you would have least expected to live the drug-and-booze filled life leading to an early exit.

Edit: Not saying they did lead those sorts of lives, just that they weren't prime candidates to check out early when so many of the era did lead those sorts of lives. MJ's death was drug related, but not necessarily recreational drug related.
