Harrison’s son actually said he was laughing at prince for showboating and called it a little gratuitous

[@evanmaxwell5294]

bro ur full of shit that’s not what he said at all. Prince let the leads get jacked by Lynne’s guitarist in rehearsals and wasn’t showing anything. All the production crew was worried that prince was gonna flop but Dhani Harrison felt like he was holding back instead. Prince gave up the mid solo to Lynne’s guitarist and just took the last one. The look on Dhani’s face is 101% an oh fuck here it comes excited thing

[@Anime_n_Music]

@@orbanchristophercoThat's what he said, but I don't believe he was being completely honest in that interview. Did you see the smile on Dhani's face when Prince took his position on stage? He was stoked, and he knew something special was about to happen. His body language and his smile tell the truth, and the truth is that he enjoyed every minute of Prince's performance.

So sorry for your loss. 🤍

Prince is quite popular as a singer and a producer, but he is super underrated as a guitarist

[@timothycenter3473]

Bolter21Mapping , yes sir he was very talented guitar player!! This has to be one of the top 10 solos of all time and the exit was classic!!

[@nita0312]

Agreed. And don't forget songwriter, arranger, drummer, pianist, dancer, etc. Not many folks have that many musical gifts. He was truly one of a kind.

Kimberlee Ponson Pink Floyd was like this too, the live performances were much longer because of the guitar solos, or even keyboards or everything combined, truly shows how great artists are when they can extend their music live.

[@realguy640]

yes, and in a studio, Prince can do a Pink Floyd favorite by HIMSELF. That is praising Floyd, as their music live was so magical. This video when it came out shocked a lot of casual fans, but I always knew he could play like this, and better - if you listen to most of his work, he is a very emotional player with masterful sense of vibrato and bends, and this song was made for him to hit out of the park. Clapton is a huge fan, and he must have LOVED it. PRINCE IS AN ALL TIME GREAT. BUt none of the all time greats has mastered all the instruments and can play as many styles as Prince, plus sing and dance? No one comes close.

An understatement :) whoever thought of asking Prince to do this needs a medal on so many levels, its a lovely nod to George (both were creative and experimental songwriters), a nod to Eric's original solo which was in itself a 'step out' for the Beatles, it brings attention to this great song once again, it shows Prince as a more consummat artiste alongside respected contemporaries and as an individual guitar player... I could go on but you get the idea. 35 million views cannot be wrong.

And this why they say at “5’3” inches wearing high heels, and smoked out eyeliner, Prince will steal your woman from you!” Geez what talent!

[@conradford7493]

His royal badness.

[@purpleflowers699]

@abysmalfiend 🖤💜🖤The coroner report says 5’3, but height doesn’t make the man.🖤💜🖤

[@damihendrix]

Had to give that 100th like to ya, you’re welcome

[@ginasaye0529]

Yes he will. Such a shame he is gone.

[@ginasaye0529]

I watch this over & over & never get tired of it.

[@shelleypvogel]

Hands-down, one of the most multi talented entertainers God ever put on this planet. There wasn’t a single instrument on stage that he could not play to perfection. On top of choreographing his own dance moves, writing his own songs and music… There are many grates out there, but there are few who achieve extraordinary. Prince was beyond extraordinary 💜💜💜

[@shelleypvogel]

*greats. (Grate - nope! 😂) I hate to misspell 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@lucyfoster4082]

Prince’s solo is like a final culmination of all performances of this song-the guitar finally wept its guts out.

[@toddslothower9874]

Very emotional.....every time. Wow.

[@matthewfoley3929]

Dude, that is ace.

[@sethwright4709]

Thats probably the best description anyone could write for this this version

[@chrisshockey5845]

Lucy Foster . Tom Petty is grinning from ear to ear watching him. Just saying....

[@danhigginbotham9245]

I was shocked at his (Prince) ability to play guitar. I never had a clue! To me He stole the show! RIP ..
