RIP Prince

[amcg]

I know this is almost 20 minutes long, but what the hell. It's probably not going to be up for long and it's pretty damn good! Another great Prince guitar solo here as well.

Holy crap that was good.

Mith gonna Mith.

Mith gonna Mith.

Um, man you guys are lost.
A Squire is below a prince in the rankings of royalty. Get it!

That joke was lost on you guys....

Springsteen opened his "The River" album show at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn tonight with "Purple Rain," fyi

As a Springsteen fan I would be a bit ticked off. I paid to see him do his songs, not covers.

That's a pretty lame way to look at the concert experience.

ETA: even lamer when you consider that Springsteen had included covers in his sets since the 70s.

I am hard-pressed to think of a dumber comment ever made in a music thread on this board. I'd go ElD on you if I had the energy.

I watched Purple Rain twice this week, fuck is Appollonia smoking hot....

Gina Gershon of Showgirls fame says she turned downed the Appollionia role because she was only 18 and wasn't ready for it....

He's obviously trolling at this point, not sure why anyone takes the bait.

Well I have 3 friends who are all big Bruce fans and all three don't like it when he does covers.

But, hey you guys on this site are always right in your opinions. i forgot that.

if anyone is in the market, Prince's former Toronto home is up for sale (he lived here for the 5 years that he was married to a local girl in the early 2000's).

12.7 million (that's about 9 mil US) gets you 14,000 sq ft.

My sister is a huge Bruce fan, and she's kind of meh on the covers too - some she really likes, others no.

I'd be interested hearing Bruce's cover of Purple Rain. IMO, that has train wreck written all over it.

You've mathematically proven your point with a hefty sample size. You win.

You must have been PISSED when Rush released that covers EP and added "Summertime Blues" to their live sets.

Perhaps we could rename this thread "RIP Prince/Things that Mith doesn't like".
