He wrote, performed, and produced all his albums I don't care who you are, that's a monumental task for a whole album yet alone his full catalog. The record company's never let young artist produce their own music but he made them believe. And when I say performed I mean he played every instrument and pieced each song together it's impressive. Yes he was literally a musical genius.
Prince was 1 of the greatest musicians ever! He played 27 different instruments, wrote his own lyrics & music, produced his own music, & did a lot of his own back up vocals! Checkout Prince "Wanna Be Your Lover" & "Darling Nikki"!
I'm so happy young people are getting into Prince. He was the greatest of all times!!! And his guitar playing was off the chain. No one did it better!!!!
Why would you ask him to do that? He only really listens to the beats of the song. He does a disservices to Prince's music. I think he is really young, to young to really understand and appreciate Prince's type of music. He just really narrowed Prince music down to just a beat. Please, we all know that Prince's music and the man was much more than a beat..
These are actually very dark lyrics...his parents problems, and him possibly acting similarly in a relationshi...actually quite sad lyric in a catchy "tune"...these were deep times for a lot of artists...listen carefully for the messages. They rarely had lyrics without a deeper message. Continue your quest! I just subscribed. Enjoying your journey through my musical times!
You HAVE to watch the movie, "Purple Rain" PLEASE!!! I was blessed way back in 1987 to see him live front row on his "Purple Rain Tour" two nights in a row!!! God, I had a MAD CRUSH on the man, was OBSESSED!!! Man was a very gifted musical genius!!! The movie Purple Rain was written by him and was basically a documentary of his life, dad was black and his mother italian, his dad was an abusive womanizer. Prince Rogers Nelson was his real name! He was so respected and dignified, soft spoken, reserved until he was performing, then thst little man gave it all he had ++++ Such an eccentric and unique human...terribly troubled soul, gone too soon😔🕺🏾⚧🎶💜 Anyways, you gotta watch the whole movie bruh! The fucking soundtrack was 🔥 🔥 🔥 stayed #1 for like a year if I remember right. He taught himself and could play like 15 different musical instruments or some shit. He is STILL know for jammin those riffs on that white electric guitar like Jimi Hendrix reincarnated(hope you know who Jimi was?) he could dance and play that thang simultaneously!! Enjoy the movie, it was a HUGE blockbuster hit, along with the #1 Soundtrack album, Prince was catapulted to Legend status immediately. SURELY to God you've heard his famous song, "1999"??? Which he basically foretells of the Y2K panic??? Only he wrote it way before computers even had really come out...Lyrics went something like, "2000... Zero zero parties over! Oops, out of time! We gonna party like it's 1999!!!" real weird shit, just incredibly close to what the big tech giants thought COULD happen to all computers, when the year rolled over on calenders from 1999, to 2000, due to programers NOT thinking ahead when they only used the two digits of 99, they REALLY didn't know possible issues, only imagined and worldwide panic called Y2K (year 2000) rocked the world, and fixed just in time, and the world's computers didn't implode or really do shit!!! FOUR digit years ONLY after that. Nobody really connected how accurate and psychic that the song was till the month before that New Years Eve in 1999...Weird ass times fr. The late 80's were a time when DRASTIC CHANGES IN HISTORY OCCURRED OR BEGAN TO.... Anyways, sorry for that history lesson. I'd all but forgotten those almost forgotten years of my youth. But thank you for reacting to "When Doves Cry", also from the "Purple Rain" movie. The video was scenes from the movie. Can't believe you haven't seen it, it was a masterpiece. Funny, great music, filmed in his hometown and true story with real people from his life. Morris Day & The Time were Prince's rival band and "Jungle Love" was a actual new "thing" back then, referring to races mixing, I swear! I got mixed grown children, Prince broke some racial barriers down being bi-racial himself. He never married or had any children sadly. Plenty beautiful woman though!!! React to "1999", "Little Red Corvette" and "Darling Nikki" by the man. Thanks so much bruh! #EST4LIFE ❌ ❌ #LTFU 👆
I really need to write an autobiography of my odd life and all that I've seen, heard and experienced and witnesed. Like my take or thoughts on my lifetime, the very spiritual, philosophical yet hilarious history of this world and the human condition. If you know a "ghost-writer" that would be really seriously interested in helping me achieve the sharing of MY take on My life from my birth in 1968-now, seriously let me know. I truly feel it MUST be told and cherished. I gotta have been meant for SOMETHING, gotta leave memories and a legacy here for when I'm no longer 🙏I meant to say, I will never be able to record it by myself, as you see, I get side-tracked, long-winded and ramble too much to ever finish, but I could surely TELL a person my story out loud and they can edit it, get 1/2 of all, if not more. I just want it to be told, leave it behind like ON FILE for discovery and teaching and learning for SOMEBODY to find and love, laugh and learn from all the blunders and insights that made my life really rich. Pass it on, pay it forward. LEAVE MY MARK
Prince was not bi-racial, his mom was not white, that was just something he put in the movie for effect. Also: If you saw him live in 87, it wasn't the Purple Rain tour. Great movie though. And classic album. And Prince? He's the GOAT.
First purple rain tour was '85 #Clairebear_again 1987. Was the start of the SOTT tours. This guy doing the video. I don't believe u never dug this till now. U seem like a cool dude but u need to open your mind to his catalogue, this where modern day inspiration is formed.
Just want to set the record straight, old fans know him as multi-ethnic because Prince himself gave interviews that confused the media, because in Purple Rain his character was multi-ethnic, and his character being autobiographical, and his media presence not understanding his humor or probably not catching up on him deflecting the question of his private life of his parents, and because he had light skin, the world sort of picked up the idea he was mixed and ran with it at the time. I think he just got tired of correcting every folk. Me I'm just an old fan from the 80s, and the day I got the call he'd died, a piece of me died with him, and I'll never be the same for the way his music changed my heart mind & soul. All us old fans adored him in a way that was so appreciative of the music, because the music was a full landscape of sound, it was not an identity or a rebellion but a production of this man's mind. (There were none like him, but I sure say with total 100% feeling that if he were around today he'd be all about The Weeknd, that dude is sharp af) 💜
I discovered Prince in the 70’s when “Feel for You” hit the scene. He was very gimmicky then and didn’t have to be, his talent was remarkable. After the release of the movie...he started getting the respect he deserved. He was FIRE live!
Prince is definitely known here, but Michael Jackson overshadowed him unfortunately. That's not to say that MJ is more talented or sings better than Prince because I don't agree, but he was bigger popularity wise
I was a Music Major in college, and this is one of the songs my professor had us listen to over and over until we finally realized that it has no BASSLINE💯🔥❤
Yes darling, he was THAT good. One of kind, one in a million, the one and only, the purple one, the gifted, the beautiful, the majestic, the musical genius that was, is, and always will be Prince.
My favorite Prince song 🔥Prince was self taught multiple instruments which he played on his first album of many. He wrote his own music and hits for other popular artists. His live performances (singing, playing and dancing) were the greatest! He was the soundtrack to my life both born in 1958. Gone too soon!
Possibly my favorite Prince song. Dude was a legend, and the way he played the guitar was absolutely savage. I kind of hope he and David Bowie are actually immortal and planning their return under new identities in 20 - 30 years.
Prince Rogers Nelson (yes, his given name) was bloody brilliant. He lived for funk music. TRUE funk. He infused it in everything. That “bounce” that got you? Funk, baby. Dive in. Prince couldn’t make a bad song. When “Erotic City” came out in the mid-80s, parents everywhere lost they shit. 💯 My parents included... my 15 year old ass had to sneak listening to it. Prince always was and always will be a G.O.A.T. to me... #PaisleyPark represent!
Doves are a symbol of love and peace. So, when they fight(Prince and his girl), he compares it to what says what it sounds like when doves cry. What a Poet!!!
Prince said after he was done mixing a sone and was happy he had what he wanted that he would then remove an instrument from the mix. He never wanted a song to sound like a wall of sound. This song is perfect example. There had to be s certain simplicity. I remember the first time I’d heard this song and was immediately fascinated.
PRINCE! I miss him so much. Best song off soundtrack and must react: Computer Blues! MASTER GUITARIST with that Special something that he could pick up any instrument and master it!
I still remember the first time I heard this song, when I was about 12. I remember exactly where I was and the people I was with. That's how impressed I was, that 35 years later, I remember it so clearly.
Prince was a genius. His lyrics, one of the best guitarists of all time, and Prince could steal your Wife, your Girlfriend, your Husband, your Boyfriend...My Mother had the hots for Prince and I'm 55.
I've heard the saying was he's the only man who could wear a full face of make up and still steal your woman! Little Red Corvette is bad ass! While My Guitar Gently Weeps is him and a few other guitar playing legends perform together! It's magic!
I was all about Prince from junior high..late 70s when he first started. I was waiting for his new release of When Doves Cry, and when they announced it on the radio I pulled into a mall parking lot and listened, MIND BLOWN!
It amazing that for a track that makes you wan to move and dance, and yet it doesn't have a bass-line at all. Crazy. Great reaction. Cheers from Down Under;)
Prince’s best songs are his lesser known ones - The Cross, How Come You Don’t Call Me Anymore, Starfish and Coffee, Erotic City, Raspberry Beret, Forever in My Life and those are just off the top of my head - he wrote A LOT of music...
@@theteleisewilliamsexperience I get it but I haven’t connected to his albums as much since the early days, so I don’t really know the songs as well (or at all in some cases). Either way it’s always good to hear from other Prince enthusiasts.
Fun fact, a reporter asked Eric Clapton how does it feels to be the guitar god. He replied that he doesn't know how it feels, ask Prince. If you want to see what he's talking about, watch his solo on "While My Guitar Gently Weeps." He's on stage with a bunch of legends (like Tom Petty and Steve Winwood) and he still steals the show with his axe work!
Thanx for reacting to prince.. I got a few Prince videos that I would like to suggest, and get your reaction to. I have on a few occasions, watched each of these on repeat. Prince .. DMSR.. Live in Detroit, 2004, Musicology Tour, and/Or Prince ... 1+1+1=3.. Live at the Aladdin, Las Vegas, 12/15/2002 and/or Prince... Motherless Child (I’m dying to hear a reaction of Prince performing Live, that’s not the Super Bowl) Thanx
You should check out his song "Musicology". It's from an album with the same name. It's one of his later works, but he wrote, produced and performed every instrument on the album by himself...nobody else was involved. Crazy genius of a musician.
His first album 'For You' was produced, arranged, composed, and performed by himself, his second album (self-titled) was written, arranged, composed, produced and performed entirely by Prince, his third 'Dirty Mind' was produced, arranged, and composed and by himself and 'Controversy', his fourth album was produced by Prince, written (with the exception of one track) by him, and he also performed most of the instruments on it. The guy was definitely one crazy f**kin' genius.
@@lightersideofdark7747 So y'all think he stopped writing and producing all his songs after Controversy? There's only a handful of songs he didn't write but he produced mixed composed and arranged them all
@@theteleisewilliamsexperience No I don't think that, I was just commenting what I know that's all. I don't profess to be some kind of expert on Prince. I do know he was and still is one of the greatest musicians ever to have lived. So don't worry, the majority of people commenting on this video and others are not disrespecting him or trying to belittle his talent but we just can't all be experts. Now I don't mean to be picky but if your comment is directed solely towards me that's fine. But if your comment is intended for everyone that is not as knowledgeable as you, you shouldn't reply to one individual. Just saying.
I saw Prince in New Orleans, Louisiana ; February 1, 1985 at the Superdome. This was during the Purple Rain Era. He sang "Do Me Baby" and was in a big white tub like that one standing up and there was purple fog smoke everywhere and he had a rose and then the scene faded near the end of the song. He was highly sexual and playful in his younger years. Loved the 80's ❗❤
Watch the movie Purple Rain it was the one and only movie Prince wrote and acted in. He never made another one , but it was critically acclaimed. The songs actually tell a story.
Prince is/was best experienced live ... the way he directed his band and his audience into improvised party-jams is absolutely stunning ... check out the live version of "1-2-3" in Las Vegas and, from the same concert, "The Work" ...
Me born '71...so Prince, MJ all that and oso Malmsteen Metallica all those too... Those were the days when ur spoiled to choose which genres of music to follow...
The greatest of the greatest he is so talented & man he can play a guitar, when the world lost him saddest moment ever I was lucky enough to see him in concert wow what a performer
Already saw people requesting Little Red Corvette, Let’s Go Crazy, Darling Nicki etc. so I’m going to request you review a different song. One that’s very unique and somewhat different from the others among his vast collection of works. It’s actually my favorite Prince song, and one of my favorite songs of all time. If you can find it, would love to see you do “Sometime It Snows In April”. Thanks for showing Prince some love. He was and is an incredible artist, musician, singer, songwriter, arranger, composer and performer. Prince was and is one of the greatest artists we have ever have been gifted on this earth. I’m thankful I was alive to see it. He truly was the Mozart of the modern age. And we will never see his like again.
I've been a Prince fan for 40 years, and I am genuinely excited for you that you have all this great music ahead of you to discover. No better place to start than when doves cry, but there is so much more to dive into. Enjoy!
I was a teen at the height of his stardom, great stuff! I would suggest “I wanna be your lover”, “Controversy”, “Kiss”, “Darling Nikki”, “Baby, I’m a Star”. “Let’s Go Crazy”, “I would die for you”, “Diamonds and Pearls”, “my guitar gently weeps” performance from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and his Super Bowl Half Time show in the rain, “The Most Beautiful Girl in the World”, “If I was Your Girlfriend”, “Nothing Compares 2 U”
PRINCE traveled with an-'entourage' of talent. Check out his 'Girlfriend'- APPOLONIA, other groups ,that can be found on UA-cam are-'MORRIS DAY & the TIME', oh- & ONE last-'TALENT' was-'SHEILA B.' (Dang- hadn't thought of HER, in a minit, lol).
You would be surprised how many artists he influenced and wrote music for. There are at least 40 songs i think of that you can listen to. I was a big fan of MJ but when Prince passed it really hit me hard. I'm glad i was able to see him perform live and his performance at the Superbowl on the rain was epic.
Goosebumps. Now you Get It! Prince Rocks. I saw Prince when he played Sydney Australia 🇦🇺 almost 30 years ago. He was the consumate performer. Super talented. Charming. Shy. Funny. Gorgeous and yes, he Was the only Straight man who could wear make-up and heels and fancy costumes and Still be as hot as all hell. 🔥 Forever in my heart.
You should discover his post-2000 music. You'll love tracks like Black Sweat, Old Skool Company, Sticky Like Glue, Stare, Illusion Coma Pimp & Circumstance, Laydown... just to name a few
There’s music geniuses...and there’s Prince-level genius!! His 1999 and Sign o the Times double albums are definitely peak-level Prince. They were cutting edge when released! Prince is a rabbit hole you can easily get lost in!!
Prince was operating on another level from every other living artist.
No he wasn't.But okay
He was a musical genius...
Yes he was! He did everything at high level that’s what separates him from the rest.
100% great way to describe Prince!
He wrote, performed, and produced all his albums I don't care who you are, that's a monumental task for a whole album yet alone his full catalog. The record company's never let young artist produce their own music but he made them believe. And when I say performed I mean he played every instrument and pieced each song together it's impressive. Yes he was literally a musical genius.
Prince was 1 of the greatest musicians ever! He played 27 different instruments, wrote his own lyrics & music, produced his own music, & did a lot of his own back up vocals! Checkout Prince "Wanna Be Your Lover" & "Darling Nikki"!
chad engelby much as I love “Darling Nikki”, it might be a bit too raunchy for a reaction if he is/wants to be monetized. UA-cam is weird.
Lol. 😆 Can't be any worse than what's out there now. I mean...this new stuff is filthy.
Rebecca Rockchik true... but UA-cam is weird about what they consider acceptable
Maybe if he purifies himself in the waters of Lake Minnetonka first....
Facts.
Prince was revolutionary, unique and SO talented. There will NEVER be another in our lifetime....never.
Beautiful ones is my favorite song ever......Prince is the GOAT....
Oh yes
YES!! PLEASE!!!
That line! Do you want him! OR Do YOU Want ME! 'CAUSE I WANT YOU! - It's a wrap. That's the coldest line in the game!
I'm so happy young people are getting into Prince. He was the greatest of all times!!! And his guitar playing was off the chain. No one did it better!!!!
Yesss more Prince. Do Little Red Corvette...🔥💜
he needs to just go down the purple rabbit hole lol 💜💜 housequake, lady cab driver, EROTIC CITY
If he goes that rabbit hole, he may never climb out!
Why would you ask him to do that? He only really listens to the beats of the song. He does a disservices to Prince's music. I think he is really young, to young to really understand and appreciate Prince's type of music. He just really narrowed Prince music down to just a beat. Please, we all know that Prince's music and the man was much more than a beat..
One of the only songs to hit #1 WITHOUT A BASELINE. Prince was a genius. RIP.
These are actually very dark lyrics...his parents problems, and him possibly acting similarly in a relationshi...actually quite sad lyric in a catchy "tune"...these were deep times for a lot of artists...listen carefully for the messages. They rarely had lyrics without a deeper message.
Continue your quest! I just subscribed. Enjoying your journey through my musical times!
Little Red Corvette, While Mt Guitar Gently Weeps,Let's go crazy
@SlipKid84 prince made it his song 👌🏼
Raspberry beret was a great one too
We all know he made music after 85 right?
"Controversy" is another great song by Prince and waaaay ahead of its time.
You HAVE to watch the movie, "Purple Rain" PLEASE!!! I was blessed way back in 1987 to see him live front row on his "Purple Rain Tour" two nights in a row!!! God, I had a MAD CRUSH on the man, was OBSESSED!!! Man was a very gifted musical genius!!! The movie Purple Rain was written by him and was basically a documentary of his life, dad was black and his mother italian, his dad was an abusive womanizer. Prince Rogers Nelson was his real name! He was so respected and dignified, soft spoken, reserved until he was performing, then thst little man gave it all he had ++++ Such an eccentric and unique human...terribly troubled soul, gone too soon😔🕺🏾⚧🎶💜

That’s one of my favorite episodes of Black-ish. 😂 They were RIGHT. Prince could do whatever he wanted.
Yes! Loved that episode so much!

Yep, I saw him twice many moons ago. Live reactions would be nice.
“Controversy” was delightful and naughty. I was gonna marry Prince (in my teenaged imagination).
Controversy always will be my favorite.
There is so much prince to listen to! I recommend: "Diamonds and Pearls", "I Would Die 4 You", "Darling Nikki", "Adore"
Love him. He is missed 💜💜
as a UK guy, im amazed Prince isnt regarded as a genius god musician wise in America. he was unique, amazingly talented.
He certainly was regarded that way in our day. So good that today's generation is discovering him now.
he definitely is in america as well. this is just a generational difference not a geographic one.
Prince is definitely known here, but Michael Jackson overshadowed him unfortunately. That's not to say that MJ is more talented or sings better than Prince because I don't agree, but he was bigger popularity wise
I think yall didnt get exposed to all of his great music. He is gold post purple rain.
Of course, Prince is considered a genius
I was a Music Major in college, and this is one of the songs my professor had us listen to over and over until we finally realized that it has no BASSLINE💯🔥❤
💯
🙌🏾💯
Prince is everything! Phenomenal musician.....for reals💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Purple Rain live at the Super Bowl!
That's right Prince was the only man that can wear heels lipstick and eyeliner and still steal your woman.
Yes darling, he was THAT good. One of kind, one in a million, the one and only, the purple one, the gifted, the beautiful, the majestic, the musical genius that was, is, and always will be Prince.
Prince was amazing 💜 Try “Raspberry Beret”
Love Raspberry beret
👑 Prince, all around amazing artist,R.I.P. 🎸💕🥰 he the man who was hot wearing lace and heels 🔥🔥🔥
One thousand percent yes!
Prince - Genius
My favorite Prince song 🔥Prince was self taught multiple instruments which he played on his first album of many. He wrote his own music and hits for other popular artists. His live performances (singing, playing and dancing) were the greatest! He was the soundtrack to my life both born in 1958. Gone too soon!
Check out Prince's "Erotic City" and "Kiss". Two of the deadliest dance beats ever.
no love for PUssy control?
Erotic City is great. All great!
Erotic City... very erotic
Erotic City was back in the day the b-side every club had to play :)
And "Housequake" is another deadly beat.
"Cream", by Prince!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dirty Minds and Controversy double album. 👍
That song... 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yeeessssss!❤️❤️
you gotta check out KISS by Prince. Do the official video
Check out Prince- Purple Rain live at the Grammys in the 80s.
You should see how this song is used in Vaz Lurhman's Romeo and Juliette. 🔥 That movie...just perfection.
Possibly my favorite Prince song. Dude was a legend, and the way he played the guitar was absolutely savage. I kind of hope he and David Bowie are actually immortal and planning their return under new identities in 20 - 30 years.
Prince Rogers Nelson (yes, his given name) was bloody brilliant.
He lived for funk music. TRUE funk.
He infused it in everything. That “bounce” that got you? Funk, baby.
Dive in. Prince couldn’t make a bad song.
When “Erotic City” came out in the mid-80s, parents everywhere lost they shit. 💯 My parents included... my 15 year old ass had to sneak listening to it.
Prince always was and always will be a G.O.A.T. to me...
#PaisleyPark represent!
Prince - "Beautiful Ones" or "Darling Nikki"
#NoLimitNation #HangOverGang #CreekSquad
Darling Nikki is one of my favs too
Doves are a symbol of love and peace. So, when they fight(Prince and his girl), he compares it to what says what it sounds like when doves cry. What a Poet!!!

Prince, the top of the top! Prince was hotttttt!
PRINCE! I miss him so much. Best song off soundtrack and must react: Computer Blues!
MASTER GUITARIST with that Special something that he could pick up any instrument and master it!
Master??? You mean the greatest of all time Guitarist
This man was packed full of talent. It was very sad to lose him so soon.
I still remember the first time I heard this song, when I was about 12. I remember exactly where I was and the people I was with. That's how impressed I was, that 35 years later, I remember it so clearly.
This song was on the Purple Rain soundtrack. Some are clips from the movie. If I recall, there was no bass on this track.
Correct, this and "Kiss" have no bass.
That's right💯
Prince was a genius. His lyrics, one of the best guitarists of all time, and Prince could steal your Wife, your Girlfriend, your Husband, your Boyfriend...My Mother had the hots for Prince and I'm 55.
Prince was the King of KOOL
Best concert EVER 💜💜💜
RIParadise 🙏
Prince is a music legend, I love him 💜💜💜
I've heard the saying was he's the only man who could wear a full face of make up and still steal your woman! Little Red Corvette is bad ass! While My Guitar Gently Weeps is him and a few other guitar playing legends perform together! It's magic!
So gooooood to see these young kids digging The Purple One!❤️🔥
He is so great his reissued double album 1999 is nominated for a grammy in 2021 the album came out in the 80's
GOAT. Prince influenced the world of music more than any other artist ever...
I was all about Prince from junior high..late 70s when he first started. I was waiting for his new release of When Doves Cry, and when they announced it on the radio I pulled into a mall parking lot and listened, MIND BLOWN!
It amazing that for a track that makes you wan to move and dance, and yet it doesn't have a bass-line at all. Crazy.
Great reaction.
Cheers from Down Under;)
I loved watching you get into the groove of it. How can you NOT move when Prince is jamming? ❤
While my guitar gently weeps" is astounding.
He has so many great songs! My personal favorite is 'Raspberry Beret'. Great feel good song!!
Prince’s best songs are his lesser known ones - The Cross, How Come You Don’t Call Me Anymore, Starfish and Coffee, Erotic City, Raspberry Beret, Forever in My Life and those are just off the top of my head - he wrote A LOT of music...
Power Fantastic, Revelation, When She Comes,June, Dreamer, Love Like Jazz, Walk In Sand we need 2 stop acting like Prince retired in 1989
@@theteleisewilliamsexperience I get it but I haven’t connected to his albums as much since the early days, so I don’t really know the songs as well (or at all in some cases). Either way it’s always good to hear from other Prince enthusiasts.
Fun fact, a reporter asked Eric Clapton how does it feels to be the guitar god. He replied that he doesn't know how it feels, ask Prince. If you want to see what he's talking about, watch his solo on "While My Guitar Gently Weeps." He's on stage with a bunch of legends (like Tom Petty and Steve Winwood) and he still steals the show with his axe work!
Prince was the best of the best nobody can out touch him or outlive him through his music.
He was the GOAT. He always shut it down!
Play all Prince! He is Amazimg and the best ever!!! R.I.P. PRINCE!🌹💜💜💜🌹
Thanx for reacting to prince..
I got a few Prince videos that I would like to suggest, and get your reaction to.
I have on a few occasions, watched each of these on repeat.
Prince .. DMSR.. Live in Detroit, 2004, Musicology Tour,
and/Or
Prince ... 1+1+1=3.. Live at the Aladdin, Las Vegas, 12/15/2002
and/or
Prince... Motherless Child
(I’m dying to hear a reaction of Prince performing Live, that’s not the Super Bowl)
Thanx
You should check out his song "Musicology". It's from an album with the same name. It's one of his later works, but he wrote, produced and performed every instrument on the album by himself...nobody else was involved. Crazy genius of a musician.
His first album 'For You' was produced, arranged, composed, and performed by himself, his second album (self-titled) was written, arranged, composed, produced and performed entirely by Prince, his third 'Dirty Mind' was produced, arranged, and composed and by himself and 'Controversy', his fourth album was produced by Prince, written (with the exception of one track) by him, and he also performed most of the instruments on it. The guy was definitely one crazy f**kin' genius.
@@lightersideofdark7747 So y'all think he stopped writing and producing all his songs after Controversy? There's only a handful of songs he didn't write but he produced mixed composed and arranged them all
@@theteleisewilliamsexperience No I don't think that, I was just commenting what I know that's all. I don't profess to be some kind of expert on Prince. I do know he was and still is one of the greatest musicians ever to have lived. So don't worry, the majority of people commenting on this video and others are not disrespecting him or trying to belittle his talent but we just can't all be experts. Now I don't mean to be picky but if your comment is directed solely towards me that's fine. But if your comment is intended for everyone that is not as knowledgeable as you, you shouldn't reply to one individual. Just saying.
I saw Prince in New Orleans, Louisiana ; February 1, 1985 at the Superdome.
This was during the Purple Rain Era. He sang "Do Me Baby" and was in a big white tub like that one standing up and there was purple fog smoke everywhere and he had a rose and then the scene faded near the end of the song. He was highly sexual and playful in his younger years. Loved the 80's ❗❤
Watch the movie Purple Rain it was the one and only movie Prince wrote and acted in. He never made another one , but it was critically acclaimed. The songs actually tell a story.
Prince is/was best experienced live ... the way he directed his band and his audience into improvised party-jams is absolutely stunning ... check out the live version of "1-2-3" in Las Vegas and, from the same concert, "The Work" ...
He was eccentric and no one could ever hold up to his vibe!!!
He was untouchable, on a higher plain.
I was so in love with Prince back in the day. More Prince please.
You really should react to Prince "Darling Nikki." It's also from the album / movie 'Purple Rain.' It's so freaking cool.
Probably the most talented musician of his generation. Wrote, played, sang, produced...dude was just....well...Greatness
This is my favorite song that Prince sang.
Me born '71...so Prince, MJ all that and oso Malmsteen Metallica all those too... Those were the days when ur spoiled to choose which genres of music to follow...
Main reason you never see prince standing next to the Keyboard player or the Drummer when they are standing up, they are each nearly a foot taller.
The greatest of the greatest he is so talented & man he can play a guitar, when the world lost him saddest moment ever I was lucky enough to see him in concert wow what a performer
Already saw people requesting Little Red Corvette, Let’s Go Crazy, Darling Nicki etc. so I’m going to request you review a different song. One that’s very unique and somewhat different from the others among his vast collection of works. It’s actually my favorite Prince song, and one of my favorite songs of all time. If you can find it, would love to see you do “Sometime It Snows In April”. Thanks for showing Prince some love. He was and is an incredible artist, musician, singer, songwriter, arranger, composer and performer. Prince was and is one of the greatest artists we have ever have been gifted on this earth. I’m thankful I was alive to see it. He truly was the Mozart of the modern age. And we will never see his like again.
I miss Prince so much. We've lost so many of the great ones over the last ten years or so.
Yes, Prince was that good. No one equals him. R. I. P. Prince. Still hard to believe he’s gone and it’s been 5 years.💜☔️💜
I've been a Prince fan for 40 years, and I am genuinely excited for you that you have all this great music ahead of you to discover. No better place to start than when doves cry, but there is so much more to dive into. Enjoy!
I was a teen at the height of his stardom, great stuff! I would suggest “I wanna be your lover”, “Controversy”, “Kiss”, “Darling Nikki”, “Baby, I’m a Star”. “Let’s Go Crazy”, “I would die for you”, “Diamonds and Pearls”, “my guitar gently weeps” performance from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and his Super Bowl Half Time show in the rain, “The Most Beautiful Girl in the World”, “If I was Your Girlfriend”, “Nothing Compares 2 U”
He wasn't a human, I'm convinced. No single human can be THAT talented.... He's the greatest, most important musician to ever live.
Prince was one of a kind. So talented.
Damn U by Prince...he had the best love songs
This song has NEVER gotten old for me, EVER.
🧡💜 🕊
He played all the instruments. He was phenomenal.
I was fortunate to grow just as Prince was flourishing - legend RIP.
PRINCE traveled with an-'entourage' of talent. Check out his 'Girlfriend'- APPOLONIA, other groups ,that can be found on UA-cam are-'MORRIS DAY & the TIME', oh- & ONE last-'TALENT' was-'SHEILA B.' (Dang- hadn't thought of HER, in a minit, lol).
I became a fan back when "Controversy" dropped!
You would be surprised how many artists he influenced and wrote music for. There are at least 40 songs i think of that you can listen to. I was a big fan of MJ but when Prince passed it really hit me hard. I'm glad i was able to see him perform live and his performance at the Superbowl on the rain was epic.
Prince is just flawless
Goosebumps.
Now you Get It!
Prince Rocks.
I saw Prince when he played Sydney Australia 🇦🇺 almost 30 years ago. He was the consumate performer. Super talented. Charming. Shy. Funny. Gorgeous and yes, he Was the only Straight man who could wear make-up and heels and fancy costumes and Still be as hot as all hell. 🔥
Forever in my heart.
Prince was so talented. R.I.P
Prince has been killing it for decades!!!
You should discover his post-2000 music. You'll love tracks like Black Sweat, Old Skool Company, Sticky Like Glue, Stare, Illusion Coma Pimp & Circumstance, Laydown... just to name a few
Love 💘 to Prince from southern MN. Thanks for this reaction!
Prince was one of a kind...so talented and i feel he did the best half time show at the Superbowl
You should’ve listen the complete version This song is everything ! Prince the absolute genius. ✨
React to the song “ IF I WAS YOUR GIRLFRIEND “
Oh this is beautiful .I am so pleased for you to discover Prince.
Best beat “Baby, I’m A Star”
I saw Prince in concert twice. Incredible show and musician.
Prince was pound for pound one of the greatest musicians and artists to ever grace the planet.
There’s music geniuses...and there’s Prince-level genius!! His 1999 and Sign o the Times double albums are definitely peak-level Prince. They were cutting edge when released! Prince is a rabbit hole you can easily get lost in!!
PRINCE WAS A GENIUS!! PLEASE DO MORE PRINCE..HIS MUSIC DURING THE SIGN O THE TIMES AND PURPLE RAIN ERAS THST IS GENIUS MUSIC!!!
Great live video Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child. He is a guitar virtuoso. Prince a musical genius.
You would have lost your mind when that beat drop later on in the song...
