I got to talk to him, for the first time, when I was a teenager. I, unknowingly wondered onto the set of Purple Rain. He walked up next to me and asked me about the scene they shooting. I almost wet myself. Then, some years later got to see him perform at First Ave and go back to Paisley Park for an after party. And have been to a few more of his shows. I actually live across the street from Paisley Park and had run into him a few more times around our little town. An absolutely amazingly nice man and was so gracious to his fans. I, as so many people were, was devastated when he died. It was a stormy day when he died and just hours after he passed and dozens of mourners (myself included) gathered at the gates of Paisley Park a rainbow formed over the estate, it was magical. Google it. He was an incredible talant, incredible person. It still feels like some kind of cosmic mistake that he died.

[@chipmunkred1519]

I live in the cities and I’ll always remember that day. I was seven months pregnant with my first child and at work. You’re right it was raining that day. I had to go outside and cry when I found out. I was seven months pregnant. Sitting on the sidewalk and crying in the rain.

Prince had literally rather take a punch in the face than lip sync! He was music, he didn't have to give himself title's or have tons of press his music spoke for him! And we Prince fans appreciated that, And after the iconic Success we stayed, went to all in concerts bought his music and we respected the Man!

Nothing will ever beat Prince singing Purple Rain, in the rain, his silhouette shredding behind a piece of fabric, while 10's of thousands of people sing it back to him. Nothing will ever come close. These are the moments we live for. These are the moments that are remembered forever.

[@zazagirl3373]

Prince beat Mozart, he mastered over 20 instruments by age 17, he could dance, sing any note, rap, he wrote, arranged, performed ALL his music, including wrote hits for other artists, he has covered almost every genre, Metal, Punk rock, hip hop, pop, r&b, soul, jazz, blues, country, ambience, classical, instrumental. The Multi-Genre God. He could play anything, and your favorite artists have been deeply influenced by him. Corey Taylor, Whitney Houston, Steve Vai, Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Lil uzi vert, H.E.R. , Paul Mccartney, all worship Prince to just name a few. Prince recorded his first 2 albums at 16 all by himself, all instruments, lyrics, arrangement, composition & vocals were all by him. He was such a prodigy, that music executives wanted proof, they would fly across country just to see if he could really play all instruments, because it was so unheard of. Prince has over 50 official released albums and when he passed, they found over 10 thousand unreleased Prince music in his vault. He then came into the business and was the FIRST to fight for artists rights, and he WON. He would write "slave" on his cheek and go to meetings protesting against the industry. Prince was also the first artist to sell his music on the internet. You are talking about the most talented artist we will ever see.

Throughout his career Prince would show up with his band to a small local club and play another whole concert until the wee hours of the morning after his main concert ended at the large venue in whatever town he was playing. I got to witness one in the mid-90's at Metro in Chicago....20 bucks cash at the door....he came on at 1am and played covers and hits until 4am. He was music.

[@Tarheelbex]

Without a doubt, the BEST halftime show ever! It's like the heavens poured down the love just for Prince. The only thing he was worried about was his hair getting wet, so he wore the head scarf. Then by the end he was like "what the hell" and pulled it off. I wish he was still with us on this earth. I saw him twice in concert. Aaaaahhhhhh-mazing is all I can say. Thanks for this reaction.

This is without question the Greatest Super Bowl Show Ever.

One of the things I like the most about this performance is that Prince got in front of one of the biggest crowds imaginable, the perfect place to show everyone how great his music was...and played other bands' songs.

Prince is music. That’s it. He was not just the best, but also the most loved by everyone. He was more royal than any actual royal family member. And the respect he gave back. From showing respect for other great acts by covering them during HIS halftime show even though he has enough hits of his own, and the end - bowing and showing gratitude to the crowd with such grace. He’s one of very few who actually lived and breathed music. Recorded enough songs to last another 100 years. That’s true dedication.
