Pint sized legend. Sad is me.
Nothing to say.
Only clichés come to mind.
Just so sad. What a loss.
The greatest of them all.
Are we allowed like this millionaire?
I’m confused about the rules.
Yes, If it is based on hard work, talent, innovation without compromise, that’s ok.
Whats your point?
This year has brought it home to me that my generation is dying too soon.
Dieing
Dead m8.
Funster? Hah.
I am devastated. He was my favourite artist.
Purple Rain, Parade and Sign of The Times are my most played CDs.
John Kelly’s few words on Six One were nice… RIP Prince
A true loss
Enough 2016! ENOUGH!!
“You turn on the telly and every other story is tellin’ you somebody died” But did it have to be Prince though?
Life is just a party and parties weren’t meant to last
Try asking the intelligentsia who never partied within Irish Water in the first place?
Oh piss off! This is not the time.
Anyways. RIP someone as a product. The music was not memorable.
Music and celebrity is a product. Did we miss Prince before he died?
If you lost family and friends in succession you can talk and tweet and write about grief. Losing Prince is sad, but it will not be a loss to music as his work is already wrapped up.
he was still producing great music and had, what is estimated to be thousands of unreleased recordings.
yes, the death of an artist and cultural figure is different to a personal loss, but do not underestimate the importance of grieving the death of icon.
Incredibly stupid and uninformed commentary by Spagnolia Von Hoop. Maybe stick to the pun-ditry love?
And from a big disease with a little name [Flu] :-/
Responsible for the truest to the comic book batman tune ever. RIP oh great purpley one.
