    I can't take it anymore. Bowie and Prince in one year? :(

    Terrible

    Immensely underrated guitar player. One of the greatest ever

    Still say his SB halftime show was the best ever.

    Hope the boys give a nod tonight. Ed can sing When the Doves Cry

    Dang, this absolutely stinks :disappointed: Dude was only 57. Purple Rain was one of the soundtracks of my youth. It's been an unusually tough year so far for musical luminaries. Dearly beloved.....

    2 of the big 3 pop stars born in 58 are gone. Madonna needs to thank her LUCKY STARS she's still alive.

    You were the bomb in Fargo, yo! RIP

    My senior year of high school.

    I should be lucky I just subscribed to Tidal last week since his music is there. Grim Reaper needs to get bent. RIP

    Little back story on the song Manic Monday....


    Another Prince music lesson, younger music fans may not be aware of:
    Prince wrote this song, and quickly said it needs a Female voice to sing it, Apollonia made a demo, that he thought was not good enough, then gave it to the Bangles. If that is not being a visionary, I don't know what is.
    RIP

    Having a tough time with this. My music collection is starting to look like a cemetery. I was so fortunate to have seen Prince twice. His performances were exhilarating and I don't think we'll see another like him.
