#4 ...the once and future Prince. Be careful of advice from half baked noodles.

#5 Well, that settles it then. I mean, if Prince says it's over, it's over. Guess we're goin' back to vinyl LPs and reel-to-reel.

#8 Amazon sells great rasberry berets, pink cashmere coats and platform booties. What he talking about?

#9 The true pity is that his career was ruined by a combination of religion and ego. When he became a Jehovah's Witness, his talent just hit a brick wall, no longer able to express his inner perverted little gremlin muse.

And now he has two bad hips, but refuses to get hip replacements, which would mess up anyone.

But I will always think of him fondly for one reason. When Raspberry Beret came out, junior enlisted personnel with the 82nd AB drove their NCOs nuts just by humming it. Which they did with the malicious glee known only to junior enlisted men.

#13 But I will always think of him fondly for one reason...

Is there any other little red corvette, purple rain, 1999, rasberry beret, when doves cry, kiss, etc? Nothing but nothing is more fun to jam out to during karaoke than Prince, in my humble opinion. Prince, the wild young version, is sorely missed, in my book.
