Accountable? I'm sure Prince was prescribed a low amount of pain pills or meds. The problem is pain fluctuates so people take more meds. I suspect Prince obtained something not prescribed and accidentally overdosed.
What was Prince doing riding around a Walgreens parking lot on his bicycle? Maybe he was having a good time. But the report is that he was waiting for someone to get a prescription for him. Who knows.
I saw him in concert, 5th row center! It was the BEST concert ever. I don't believe he died naturally. He'll always be missed, never duplicated. RIP Prince 💜💜💜💜
No, he for sure didn't die naturally. He died because he had become addicted to opiates and he ended up with a bad batch of counterfeit Vicodin laced with fentanyl. And it killed him. And that was a huge loss for the world. I remember being in a cafe with my husband and our children for a nice lunch, and my husband leans over and whispers "Violet......Prince has died." I had heard about the plane having to do an emergency landing the week before, and had been worried that it would end up like this. I had to leave the restaurant. I went outside to the sidewalk and began to cry. Realizing I was not just going to shed two or three tears, I then ran back into the cafe and headed for the restroom where I fully sobbed for a few minutes. It took months to fully process that Prince was gone. And even after all of that, I do not believe he was "taken out." I know how he died and it makes perfect sense to me. It just sucks. In 2023 I visited an online gallery sale. Amongst the pages of images, I discovered this immense purple painting of Prince wearing a crown adorned with rhinestones. I bid on it and in a few weeks, that painting showed up at my doorstep. It's five feet tall and three feet wide. My kids have never given me a hard time about why I bought such a behemoth painting of Prince, of all people. They know. They were there the moment I found out that he'd died. They saw my pain. My given name is in fact Violet. So you can imagine, being a little kid in the 80s with "His Purple Highness" dominating the charts, that I felt an affinity for the man. As a musician I also have always looked to Prince for inspiration. You said it best, dear one: He will NEVER BE DUPLICATED. How lucky are we to have lived in the same era as Prince???
@@violetgc6049 no he was a celeb, you didnt know himhe didnt you. growup.these celebs are people,nothing special. him dying is no worse millions others. growup
That’s mean to poor Violet! She’s entitled to her own memories! You come round being a troll. If you’ve got nothing nice to say in return get offline or off this page! Plenty other things to entertain you, how about you stop cyber bullying the innocent?
@@violetgc6049violet,you sound lovely sentimental lady! I like Prince a lot too. But I’m so happy for you that you’ve found your sentimental picture” Wow! It sounds truly unique and mesmerizing to me,as a poet, I’m only going on your descriptions here…. Thank you for sharing this with me as a Prince fan. I cried the day we lost him, too.As I’d written the last person I thought addicted…..our beloved Prince.However,maybe he didn’t understand the coincidences of some of these drugs? I’ve heard of just about every rock pop star get into some drugs. I think this psychologist is explaining the problem very well,then fame game…….Interestingly these ppl have each different takes on Prince, I think he was very tortured soul and there were plenty of secrets about his life that we will never know😢
Lucky me a Minneapolis girl seeing Prince at First Ave and later in concert 3rd row seats. He was amazing and I always adored him. He represents my good old days.
I saw him in concert in the 80s. It was New Year's Eve. He played until midnight so we could celebrate at his concert. I still listen to his music. Shame.
I was able to see him 4 times in concert. He was a genius, pure and simple. So many current musicians talk about how Prince influenced them. His music will live and influence others forever. He left us gifts with his music that hasn’t even been put out yet.
My fav song is 17 Days. I saw him 3 times. The best show was his residency at the Rio in Vegas. It was such a small venue with no security. It was mostly couples, with everyone just sitting at their own small table for 2, like you see in movies.
just drove by Paisley Park a few weeks ago, as soon as it was in sight , little red corvette came on Sirius…..i started ugly crying… Prince was thanking us for the drive by 💜💜
I remember when I lived in Chaska I drove by his place and the gate was slightly opened I couldn't resist I pulled over and got out of my car ran over and kind of peaked my head through and I wanted to go look at Paisley Park I wanted to so bad but I just couldn't intrude into his private world that would have been the ultimate betrayal
Saw him and band in Boston,up close. He played every instrument effortlessly, strolled around singing and dancing, having fun...one of the greatest shows ever. He was something else 🎉
Same!! 55 years old. I will ALWAYS be a huge fan of his... his personal life & to an extent his professional life were tragic. No amount of money , fame, or God-given talent can replace true love, companionship, & the loss of a loved one. ESPECIALLY a child. I know because I lost a child. 💔😭 It saddens me greatly to know I'll never hear him play again, this side of Heaven. But hopefully, he was right with God. May he RIP. He truly was the GOAT, IMHO 💜💜💜
@supme7558 um, he did have a son, Amiir Nelson. He died shortly after he was born. It totally wrecked him. He may not have shown it publicly, but if you're a Prince fan/follower, you should know this. Yes, he was bi-sexual. But he also fell in love and married Mayte Garcia. I believe the death of their son destroyed their relationship. Unless you've experienced it you have NO IDEA just how difficult it is. There's a reason there's no word for it in the English language. You're not an orphan or a widow. It goes against the "laws of nature " to have to bury a child. But God! He thankfully sent His own perfect Son to teach, disciple, heal, perform miracles, love, & become the only 💯 God & 💯 Man perfect Sacrifice for all mankind to reconcile us to a holy & perfect God. I pray that Prince & Amiir have been reunited in Heaven, just like I will be with my middle son.
I wasn't fond of the man until he passed away and I'm amazed at how much I didn't know about him. What I did find out about him made me realize that sometimes I'm too quick to make assumptions. To me now he is brilliant and he is worthy of his stardom. He also taught me a valuable lesson. Do not judge anyone. He will never be forgotten.
Michael Jackson went! Prince turned down a invitation to be part of we are the world song to help starving kids around the world! yes! what a true genius he was!
Matt Mahaffey said it best (on his TedxNashville talk, which is on UA-cam) _"Prince could play guitar like Jimi Hendrix, play piano like Thelonious Monk, and squeal like James Brown, but all in a PRINCE song... All musicians are thieves, but the good ones make it untraceable."_ Because there's really no such thing as total originality anymore, but if you're talented enough, like Prince, you can take from dozens of genres & influences and make it your _own._ Which is why I love Prince _and_ Matt Mahaffey 🥰
He was definitely one of the most talented.. he was able to play numerous instruments and he did his own productions.. definitely a one of a kind type of an artist

I meet Prince back stage at the Fox theater, I told him I really enjoyed his concert at Lakewood Amphitheater ,which it took forever calling for the tickets.But low & behold I got them . I told him ,my girlfriend name was princess,He smiled and said thank you .He will always my all time favorite artist, musician,and performer, James "Famous " Fowler🎉
My dearest Prince, thank you for your music legacy and for sharing your phenomenal talent and love of music to the world. You are so greatly missed, and you will forever be my Beautiful One! 💜
Michael Jackson went! Prince turned down a invitation to be part of we are the world song to help starving kids around the world! yes! what a true beauty he was!
Depends on your personal belief. I believe in a higher power, where the source of love resides. I believe we are with that power and those that came before us and shaped our gifts. We may jot have a living being in our presence, but we are not alone.
I used to play my 45 record of “Raspberry Beret” for an entire year constantly! I was 9 years old, in the 4th grade. Of course I got into his movies as well. And further into his music as I got older also 💜

@@Deavonj Just to correct you, Michael Jackson was actually 50 when he died, so he was absolutely NOWHERE near pushing 60. Where did you get that idea from exactly?
@@anufajemisin4348I expect that they said pushing 60 just to give an age reference rather than giving out a specific number. Yes MJ was 50, which to me it’s not old, however the body does struggle and you can’t do the same things in the same way you did before…and if they do, like MJ, that’s because they are taking pain meds. And it looks Prince was in the same situation…
In the beginning they said he was on rx pain medication. But - he was given something with fentanyl in it that killed him. I'm sure he didn't know it wasn't his usual medication! Very sad.

Prince Purple Rain tour was my very 1st concert‼️ I was in like 3rd grade... my mom dressed my sister and I in Purple corduroy coulocks and we watched Purple Rain the movie when we got home❤
Prince is in my top 3! Saw him in concert when i was 21. Hands down the BEST CONCERT I've ever seen. So sad he died this way and he couldn't get proper help for his pain.
Back when I was 17, I was fortunate enough to see him Easter Sunday Night, April 7 1985, at the Orange Bowl in Miami on the final stop of his Purple Rain tour. Of course a football stadium is a large venue, and while Prince put on an appropriately big show, he also somehow made it seem intimate. He was an amazing performer. It's hard to believe he and so many other great artists from my youth are gone now. Heck even the Orange Bowl is gone. I'm sad for the loss, but feel fortunate for the memories.
Prince was an entertainer. So glad i was able to see him in concert several times. I remember where i was when i found out he had died. Sad day 😢 however his music will last for years to come. Rest in heaven sweet Prince ❤
I absolutely adore Prince! I always have! I was born in 1985 and grew up with his music 🎶 I remember every Friday night, my mum would take me to the video shop to rent out a video and every week, I would pick Purple Rain 💜✨️
He didn’t smoke,don’t even think he drank much alcohol,didn’t take illegal drugs,I read he had a lot of problems relating to his hips,I think he needed hip replacement operations and due to his religious beliefs he refused to get the operations done,so alas it was the prescription drugs he so depended upon to relief him or pain,shame if only he just got the hip replacements he would be alive today,RIP your Highness 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Google;.MINNEAPOLIS - A toxicology report from Prince's autopsy, obtained Monday by The Associated Press, shows he had what multiple experts called an "exceedingly high" concentration of fentanyl in his body when he died.Mar 27, 2018

I was attending college the same area Prince had to land his plane in Illinois & prior to that day happening I kept having this dream of the numbers/date 4/20 & was sad & yet terrified when I finally realized what my dream ended up meaning 👉sounds crazy I know, but the truth!
So heartbreaking especially when you understand addiction and opioid addiction on top of that it's lonely it's sad and it hurts what a beautiful person such an amazing artist there's not very many in his skill level you will be missed we love you
@@handsome-brute2666Stop spreading lies. What was said by his siblings and his staff. He was given pills by someone... One of those two pills he swallowed had full proof fentanyl. He had cameras all over his house and compound. Please stop accusing random people,, The moral of the story is,, never take pills from strangers. Matter of fact he could have secured those pills on his way from his last concert gig. People give pills to friends, family members not thinking twice. Those pills were a extremely higher dosage of fentanyl,💊💊,,that hadn't been cut. He thought he was taking pain pills,, Not fentanyl. The pills he consumed were counterfeit pharmaceutical pain pills laced in fentanyl. 😢. 🌹🌹🥀📿🙏
He was on TV talking about chem trails....signing ya sole to the devil (illuminati) for sudden fame and fortune....how he wouldn't sign that contract. They murder you. Make it look like an accidental O.D......suicide....ect. you tell their esecrets they take you out. They tried recently with Jamie Foxx...they almost succeeded but didn't.

I have loved Prince since my early teenage years. He was an amazing talent and is a legend and an icon. Also a beautiful man to look at and i love the control he took of his career. What a sad shame to have lost him so very soon. Rest in peace with the ancestors Prince 💔
Im watching the way he was walking in these clips. He's off. He's in obvious discomfort... im watching him trying to avoid pressure when he walks on his left side.. jumping off those high speakers. Jump splits. Wearing those heels and standing on those hard floors. Possibly degenerative issues. Spinal compression? Hip issues.
Absolutely rips me apart. We all adored him, he was completely taken advantage of and abused by the ones who surrounded him. F..fg Dr.. Losing “Our” amazing, one of a kind, amazing Musician and An Artist of all time, is an absolute tragic loss. I’m still heartbroken as I am and always will be in regards to Elvis, and so many others. RIP my guy, thank you for the unforgettable memories and sharing your talents and hard work with us all. I’m truly grateful to have shared the Planet with you. I’ll see you again. Purple Rain. 💜
Honestly, of all the stars who fell into drugs and who died before their time, I want to say that Prince was probably the LEAST taken advantage of. He was in complete control of his entire life, his image, his career, his music, his output, his studio, his friend group, his band, his circle of influence, all of it. It was a terrible accident that he died. And he died far, far too soon. But the actions leading up to Prince's death are not that of a victim of coercion or control. He sadly ended up with some counterfeit Vicodin and it did him in.
@@violetgc6049 I have to wonder, he was at the emergency room the night before he died, why would he then have to get black market drugs? It doesn’t make sense.
Did not know anything about Prince before I watched this. Brilliant, thoughtful, respectful and exceptionally well constructed tribute. I am no longer ignorant. Thank you.💜x
This brother was Healthy, Awake, Always Mind Strong and Extremely Intelligent, you can't ever tell me he died of an opiate addiction or any addiction for that matter. Nah we know the truth, the industry wanted ALL of his Masters (Money) and this is how they acquire them! Let's Be real if Michael Jackson was alive do you think he would have sold his Masters to Sony for $200 million like his family just did recently?!?!? NO FUCKING WAY, that is way too cheap and they ended up with a bargain because they killed the King to manipulate the pawns!
He seemed that way, absolutely. I want to note that I've had friendships for over 20 yrs and didn't no they were opiate addicts. Having had training on "opiate" addiction specifically, I still was unable to detect (pick up on) from a good friend (s) they were on opiates and were not talking small amts as I would imagine u kno their addiction increased over time. It was their "normal" which it was my "normal" around them. jus some fyi
I specifically remember searching for his music on UA-cam, Pandora etc., the week before he died. No where to be found. The day he died, they all had his songs available. Wierd coincidence???
Come on man...are you just dumb or what? Prince didn't release that stuff before had and of course his songs were going to be available when he checked out. Death is always ALWAYS good for any artist. Always been that way and always will
Michael Jackson went! Prince turned down a invitation to be part of we are the world song to help starving kids around the world! yes! he was one of a kind!
Hi, a very sad, heartbroken Prince fan here from Yorkshire, England. We were born in the same year, I proudly wore a raspberry coloured beret all the way through a very hot summer after hearing his song-" Raspberry Beret" I was besotted with him from the first time I saw him,fell in love with him, his music filled every occasion in my life, the happy and sad times.I like to think, in my dreams, that if we ever met, that we would have been friends, just like so many Prince fans may have thought.I have his pictures around my home, I live alone now so they are a comfort. Out of the blue, I remember he has gone, and my heart breaks over again. But what a legacy of amazing music from a once in a lifetime musician, I treasure every note.i just want to add that I do wish, someone had tried, job on the line or not, to get through to Prince to help him get the help he needed.RIP, my beautiful soul Prince.
17:32 Prince's Super Bowl Halftime Show was a deeply spiritual experience during _Purple Rain._ It still takes my breath away. 💜 Incidentally, THE BEST Halftime show EVER.
I found prince and his magic in 1986 ,I was 14 and getting drug like feeling from every song I heard,collecting prince vinyl,rare tapes ,1989 in cork I saw my idol in the batman tour, I've been to a lot of stadium gigs but that was unreal he did a guitar solo while doin a foot solo on piano,i loved him and we were few in limerick who hung out,including characters ,i would dress up like him,,i still get the same rush from his magic,when he died a bit of me died,he was a special G.O.A.T,a walkin musical note,genius only reserved for Beethoven,Mozart,❤
God I loved him SO MUCH as a kid. Purple Rain was probably my first favorite movie that had more "adult" content than we were used to seeing growing up. He was so amazing

Anyone can be outspoken. But once pain pills get ahold of a person, they hide it from everyone. He even went to get a prescription in a different name. Pill addicts learn to hide it very well.
I’ve worked in nursing for nearly 40 yrs. The Internal Medicine physician I worked for became certified in pain management several yrs ago. We provided pain mgt for our patients rather than refer them out. So I have a background in pain mgt nursing. I agree with you. I don’t believe Prince was suffering from addiction as such . He had at least one hip surgery from the preforming and injuring himself wearing heels. Jumping from pianos he’d injured joints over the years. He likely needed pain management that included the use of opioid pain pills. A patients body can become dependent on the medication over time. But “physiological dependence” and “psychological chemical dependence”, or true “addiction” are two very different things. I think he developed physical / physiological dependence and his doctors weren’t handling things well. Tried stopping or discontinuing his opioid treatment suddenly. So he accepted medication from the streets in the interim which was laced with fentanyl unfortunately. He had no tolerance for fentanyl and it easily overtook him.
He was DEFINITELY in my top #10 setlist of my life. Just b 4 my highschool graduation, its uncanny how his songs related to my life! It was a complete slowed down country song to a uptempo 1999' ect... ♥️ damn, i even got to see the guy in concert! Brilliantly done in Detroit!! Thank you prince!! Thank you!! Lov kenny 💜💜💜💜🩵🩵💙💙💜💜💜
How come nobody speculates Prince's final tweet "Just when you thought you were safe." That's a very eerie statement. It seems as if he was in great fear of something or someone 💯 Prince just doesn't share his private personal information with the world online. I believe that someone had it in for him. Does anyone understand Prince's final tweet 🤯
Wasn't he a major security buff. ?? He only trusted a very few people with private residential security codes to access the property gate and the door codes. So who did this?
Prince was a musical genius, but he was just a man. Stop treating these people as if they are some higher form of being. Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, Bruce Lee, Michael Jackson, every time a celebrity dies fairly young there’s all these people that are convinced there was some type of conspiracy involved, as if these people aren’t subject to the same foibles and weaknesses the rest of us are. Stop worshiping these people and admire them for their talent and ability to entertain but that’s it. The sad thing is instead of being rational, and realizing that not even Prince is immune to the opioid crisis in America right now, people would rather engage in wild speculations based on flimsy evidence. Meanwhile, our young people are dying due to fentanyl and other opioid based drugs.
Rick Astley "He was just amazing, he never looked unwell" Prince and Michael spoke out about certain power in the music industry, they wanted to be free and that's why they died alone.
First of all, shout out to Prince and his family and his contribution to humanity helping people and so on. Secondly, people don't understand it. When you're in pain you need something to relieve the pain. But you are mostly responsible for how you use what you take for pain. The other thing is no disrespect to anybody in this video, especially Prince Prince, you got to be accountable. What you do for what you take. What you for what you eat. Pain killers is just a mask to what's bothering you you the second way hear all those people around him around him doesn't look like they tried to help him too much to stop the abuse you was going to himself another thing is a reality check. No one is resting in peace. They have simply have died. When you rest in peace you get to get up the next. Check out the history of rip most countries don't even say rest in peace. They say something else. It's more appropriate people that rest in peace. Get up and enjoy another day and life. Whether it's you, me or anyone large or small, black or white, yellow or brown, a lot of people stars and non-stars that went this route. If you never had to deal with this stuff, you are very lucky you are still alive or if we got away from these things safely, you're very much fortunate. It's a saying that this happened to him, him painkillers be them over the counter or prescribe is no joke. Everyone take care of yourselves. It's the only self you're ever have have, live each day to the fullest money. Don't mean a thing if you can't spend it or help somebody else out with it.
I was legitimately shocked by his death, i always heard Prince was anti-drug and to know that he was addicted to opiates and died from the addiction was a total tragedy. And the fact that he died all alone was even more heartbreaking.
That's just what they wanted yall to believe how sad that it always work on yall not me AKA DRUG OVERDOSE HOW MANY THAT WAS ATTACHED TO I WONDER LETS SEE OOPS TO MANY FOR ME TO LIST BUT I KNOW WHATS UP ITS SAD THAT THEY CAN STILL USE THAT AND THE DEADHEADS STILL BELIEVE IT😮
Addiction is living in a hell (looks like it as everyone in this situation) . It goes slowly and slowly, you start noticing habits you never noticed before. Then the drugs are needed. No friends anymore… Had the doctors together with Prince talked about it earlier, maybe he would still be alive and make great music… And his legacy will remain ❤💛🧡🤍🩵💜🩷🧡🤍💚💛💖 59:0158:29 Then I have this feeling that he must have known that his (frail) body could handle that much poison. If i However, he may have known 😢, but the doctors know very well his tiime would come very soon . Prince, I wish you had seen this coming, very soon . YOU ARE HISTORIC TO ALL THE PEOPLE ❤❤❤
Ive always wondered why everything was so rushed. Fans didn't get to say goodbye and I do understand he was a private person but he died on a Thursday and by Friday afternoon he'd been cremated. That Van Johnson vampire was getting prescriptions in his name and others for Prince, why wasn't he charged. The guy that supplied Mac Miller with drugs is in Prison.
That gives me chills everytime when I see the super bowl performance Prince wanted to meet me in 2008, when I was on Skid Row, what a life,a love and talent!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜☔☔☔☔
The drug abuse usually happens in every music industry in different countries around the world. I think it’s because nothing matches the excitement of being on stage. That’s the ultimate high. When the Artist experiences that sort of high, the need to replace it with drugs. Classic story. The world has lost many artist geniuses since the beginning of time to drugs.
No matter what when I play live purple rain EVERYONE listens. No one could do what he did even Michael Jackson didn't play everything as far as instrumentally. There are no words that can describe this true genius. RIP prince.
Michael Jackson went! Prince turned down a invitation to be part of we are the world song to help starving kids around the world! yes! what a true genius he was!
I'm very thankful to have grown up while Prince was trailblazing his fantastic and iconic career! I also know how easy he fell into opiate addiction....I also know how he felt the moment he realized he took too much. The fear of death taking hold, the anger of "wtf did I take those last few, I didn't need??" and finally the acceptance of knowing you did too much and now its over...you close your eyes and.....Some of us wake up and some of us dont. I'm truly sorry Prince didn't get the help....that someone didn't give him the hard truth and tough love I got. I have a feeling though...he is out there in the next phase of whatever happens after this life, and he's trailblazing a new and different path!!
Here's a little known tidbit of Prince history for die-hard fans. I was born '71 & in the 80's my mom had pen-pals, a couple with famous spouses. One was the "wife" of Herve Villechaize/"Tattoo" from "Fantay Island" & the other Country singer & cousin of Jerry Lee Lewis, Mickey Gilley. I got a few signed pics from Herve & was supposed to meet him when scheduled to shoot a Dunkin Donuts commercial in Nashvile, but he tragically passed beforehand. As far as Gilley, one day my mom got a big box from their ranch in Texas full of books & pics signed by Prince, some personalized to mom, some not, & also a brand-new cassette tape of his yet to be released "Raspberry Beret" album. The letter said after "Purple Rain" blew up Prince needed somewhere to get away from it all so went to Gilley's ranch to lay low. Those pics are in storage SOMEWHERE??? But mom gave me the tape. I was a metal-head, but who didn't like Purple Rain? So i took the plastic off, popped it in the tape deck, thought it was awful😅, & chucked it. Wouldn't be worth anything anyway, but would've been an interesting conversation piece right about now. R.I.P., bros!🙏 🤘🌎❤️
I’m sure his “ doctor “ made an absolute fortune by having him as his patient . These “ celebrity doctors “ need to be held accountable.
I`m a chronic pain patient and this kind of propaganda is putting people like me through hell. Prince took fake STREET pills and that`s why he died.
Accountable? I'm sure Prince was prescribed a low amount of pain pills or meds. The problem is pain fluctuates so people take more meds. I suspect Prince obtained something not prescribed and accidentally overdosed.
What was Prince doing riding around a Walgreens parking lot on his bicycle? Maybe he was having a good time. But the report is that he was waiting for someone to get a prescription for him. Who knows.
Money talks
If it wasn't him he would've found someone else to fix him.
I saw him in concert, 5th row center! It was the BEST concert ever. I don't believe he died naturally. He'll always be missed, never duplicated. RIP Prince 💜💜💜💜
PERFECTLY said, " always missed, never DUPLICATED!!" I miss him so! HIs concerts were unmatchable 💜☮
No, he for sure didn't die naturally. He died because he had become addicted to opiates and he ended up with a bad batch of counterfeit Vicodin laced with fentanyl. And it killed him. And that was a huge loss for the world.
I remember being in a cafe with my husband and our children for a nice lunch, and my husband leans over and whispers "Violet......Prince has died." I had heard about the plane having to do an emergency landing the week before, and had been worried that it would end up like this. I had to leave the restaurant. I went outside to the sidewalk and began to cry. Realizing I was not just going to shed two or three tears, I then ran back into the cafe and headed for the restroom where I fully sobbed for a few minutes. It took months to fully process that Prince was gone. And even after all of that, I do not believe he was "taken out." I know how he died and it makes perfect sense to me. It just sucks.
In 2023 I visited an online gallery sale. Amongst the pages of images, I discovered this immense purple painting of Prince wearing a crown adorned with rhinestones. I bid on it and in a few weeks, that painting showed up at my doorstep.
It's five feet tall and three feet wide. My kids have never given me a hard time about why I bought such a behemoth painting of Prince, of all people. They know. They were there the moment I found out that he'd died. They saw my pain.
My given name is in fact Violet. So you can imagine, being a little kid in the 80s with "His Purple Highness" dominating the charts, that I felt an affinity for the man. As a musician I also have always looked to Prince for inspiration. You said it best, dear one: He will NEVER BE DUPLICATED. How lucky are we to have lived in the same era as Prince???

I cried the day we lost him, too.As I’d written the last person I thought addicted…..our beloved Prince.However,maybe he didn’t understand the coincidences of some of these drugs? I’ve heard of just about every rock pop star get into some drugs.
I think this psychologist is explaining the problem very well,then fame game…….Interestingly these ppl have each different takes on Prince,

Lucky me a Minneapolis girl seeing Prince at First Ave and later in concert 3rd row seats. He was amazing and I always adored him. He represents my good old days.
I saw him in concert in the 80s. It was New Year's Eve. He played until midnight so we could celebrate at his concert. I still listen to his music. Shame.
I was able to see him 4 times in concert. He was a genius, pure and simple. So many current musicians talk about how Prince influenced them. His music will live and influence others forever. He left us gifts with his music that hasn’t even been put out yet.
I was wonderful singer I did like so much is songs stay peace in God prince
My favorite is probably the song The Beautiful Ones but it used to be Purple Rain.
My fav song is 17 Days. I saw him 3 times. The best show was his residency at the Rio in Vegas. It was such a small venue with no security. It was mostly couples, with everyone just sitting at their own small table for 2, like you see in movies.

PRINCE IS IRREPLACEABLE, END OF STORY!!
@@alexjackson4558None of us are; But he did look like a poster child for a Ethiopian Commercial! END OF STORY!!
His fans are awesome from Minnesota. Prince was a good soul and SO talented ❤
I remember when I lived in Chaska I drove by his place and the gate was slightly opened I couldn't resist I pulled over and got out of my car ran over and kind of peaked my head through and I wanted to go look at Paisley Park I wanted to so bad but I just couldn't intrude into his private world that would have been the ultimate betrayal
Saw him and band in Boston,up close. He played every instrument effortlessly, strolled around singing and dancing, having fun...one of the greatest shows ever. He was something else 🎉
His plane landed in Quad City airport emergency...revieved med. Care. Why? Then on to complete flight home. Why the emergency med stop??
I remember how hard I cried ,when the news broke,I rarely cry,I then realized how ,deeply I loved him,miss him forever.
Prince Rogers Nelson 💜 💙 ♥️ 💕 ❤️ 😍 RIP 🙏 🪦 😌 ☹️ 😔 ☮️😢!
His talent was off the charts
I was a die hard Prince fan at 14 and I am 50 and am still that fan. I think so many of us are attracted to his genius. RIP PRN 💜
Me too! Started at 13, now 58. He is so missed. 💜😪
Same!! 55 years old. I will ALWAYS be a huge fan of his... his personal life & to an extent his professional life were tragic. No amount of money , fame, or God-given talent can replace true love, companionship, & the loss of a loved one. ESPECIALLY a child. I know because I lost a child. 💔😭 It saddens me greatly to know I'll never hear him play again, this side of Heaven. But hopefully, he was right with God. May he RIP. He truly was the GOAT, IMHO 💜💜💜
@Lynnda86 he didnt have any of that he was gay
@supme7558 um, he did have a son, Amiir Nelson. He died shortly after he was born. It totally wrecked him. He may not have shown it publicly, but if you're a Prince fan/follower, you should know this. Yes, he was bi-sexual. But he also fell in love and married Mayte Garcia. I believe the death of their son destroyed their relationship. Unless you've experienced it you have NO IDEA just how difficult it is. There's a reason there's no word for it in the English language. You're not an orphan or a widow. It goes against the "laws of nature " to have to bury a child. But God! He thankfully sent His own perfect Son to teach, disciple, heal, perform miracles, love, & become the only 💯 God & 💯 Man perfect Sacrifice for all mankind to reconcile us to a holy & perfect God. I pray that Prince & Amiir have been reunited in Heaven, just like I will be with my middle son.
@supme7558 💜 see above ^^

I imitated his fashion. Just loved how sharp it was, with styyyyle! And omg! Purple rain just came on the drs radio as I'm watching this on my phone!!
I wasn't fond of the man until he passed away and I'm amazed at how much I didn't know about him. What I did find out about him made me realize that sometimes I'm too quick to make assumptions. To me now he is brilliant and he is worthy of his stardom. He also taught me a valuable lesson. Do not judge anyone. He will never be forgotten.
Ive found this difficult to watch even after the years he's passed. Its just heartbreaking 💔 😢
Amen
💜♾️💜 💖 🖤🕯️🖤 💔
True!
Agreed😢
Yes. He's still so much a part of my life, that I sometimes forget he's no longer here.
Prince was a genius ahead of his time. His songs will always be remembered
Michael Jackson went! Prince turned down a invitation to be part of we are the world song to help starving kids around the world! yes! what a true genius he was!
Matt Mahaffey said it best (on his TedxNashville talk, which is on UA-cam) _"Prince could play guitar like Jimi Hendrix, play piano like Thelonious Monk, and squeal like James Brown, but all in a PRINCE song... All musicians are thieves, but the good ones make it untraceable."_
Because there's really no such thing as total originality anymore, but if you're talented enough, like Prince, you can take from dozens of genres & influences and make it your _own._ Which is why I love Prince _and_ Matt Mahaffey 🥰
Great post.
He is the greatest artist of all time. May his soul be at peace 💜
He was definitely one of the most talented.. he was able to play numerous instruments and he did his own productions.. definitely a one of a kind type of an artist

We may jot have a living being in our presence, but we are not alone.
The saddest thing is the doctors failed him ,and he was alone. The man was a musical genius, the modern day Mozart. He is missed . RIP PURPLE PRINCE.
I wish I had a chance to see Prince ❤!!!
Prince put on one of the most sexiest concerts EVER ❣️❣️❣️
I used to play my 45 record of “Raspberry Beret” for an entire year constantly! I was 9 years old, in the 4th grade. Of course I got into his movies as well. And further into his music as I got older also 💜
Through my mom's eye I saw him.
Saw him in concert. Greatest experience ever!💜
Me too and I agree!
Me too! 3 times. The last time was in Vegas at the Rio 3121.
He had concerts in LA for 25 Dollars. It was Amazing my daughter and her mom were dancing and singing
What a deadly all around musician he was!! Even though I'm primarily a hard rock guitarist I've got all the respect in the world for him.
He was the Mozart of our generation. 💜
Yessss
Truly.

He was a musical genius being able to play many musical instruments and compose music...complete albums
They don’t even mention how much pain he was in all the time. Don’t know what drugs he was on but he was constantly in pain
Just like MJ if you’re pushing 60 it’s gonna be hard to dance and do the splits like you used to at 20
@@Deavonj
Just to correct you, Michael Jackson was actually 50 when he died, so he was absolutely NOWHERE near pushing 60. Where did you get that idea from exactly?
@@anufajemisin4348I expect that they said pushing 60 just to give an age reference rather than giving out a specific number. Yes MJ was 50, which to me it’s not old, however the body does struggle and you can’t do the same things in the same way you did before…and if they do, like MJ, that’s because they are taking pain meds. And it looks Prince was in the same situation…
In the beginning they said he was on rx pain medication. But - he was given something with fentanyl in it that killed him. I'm sure he didn't know it wasn't his usual medication! Very sad.
Nope, they just want to punish those of us who live with chronic pain. We`re treated like criminals by the entire system AND the public.

Prince Purple Rain tour was my very 1st concert‼️ I was in like 3rd grade... my mom dressed my sister and I in Purple corduroy coulocks and we watched Purple Rain the movie when we got home❤
It’s a fine piece about Prince, but it’s not about his last 24 hrs.
Yep ALl cap
I knew him when I lived in MPLS. He had gone to High School with some my neighbors. We followed him at 1st Avenue. And then PURPLE RAIN.
THAT was a time meant to happen Purple rain in the rain and he left us that beautiful performance and he will always be remembered for that.
Miss this king every day!!! Great analysis of his final day on this earth. RIP Prince...a forever icon!!
This was about Prince! Not Elvis!
I am so sorry about Prince he was a Great performer❤❤❤😊😊😊
I miss him SO much. 💜
Prince is in my top 3! Saw him in concert when i was 21. Hands down the BEST CONCERT I've ever seen.
So sad he died this way and he couldn't get proper help for his pain.
Back when I was 17, I was fortunate enough to see him Easter Sunday Night, April 7 1985, at the Orange Bowl in Miami on the final stop of his Purple Rain tour. Of course a football stadium is a large venue, and while Prince put on an appropriately big show, he also somehow made it seem intimate. He was an amazing performer. It's hard to believe he and so many other great artists from my youth are gone now. Heck even the Orange Bowl is gone. I'm sad for the loss, but feel fortunate for the memories.
I love this memory, thank you
I cannot stand when a podcast

Prince was an entertainer. So glad i was able to see him in concert several times. I remember where i was when i found out he had died. Sad day 😢 however his music will last for years to come. Rest in heaven sweet Prince ❤
Tried to watch this, but the quote repetitions and the background music were distracting.
I absolutely adore Prince! I always have! I was born in 1985 and grew up with his music 🎶 I remember every Friday night, my mum would take me to the video shop to rent out a video and every week, I would pick Purple Rain 💜✨️

He didn’t smoke,don’t even think he drank much alcohol,didn’t take illegal drugs,I read he had a lot of problems relating to his hips,I think he needed hip replacement operations and due to his religious beliefs he refused to get the operations done,so alas it was the prescription drugs he so depended upon to relief him or pain,shame if only he just got the hip replacements he would be alive today,RIP your Highness 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

I'm just not buying the fact that he died accidentally, a whole lot of things don't make sense to me! 1st he was never alone at his home NEVER!
He was murdered by the record company..his aide laced his prescriptions 💊 with fentanyl...and was paid well to do so
Agreed
@@handsome-brute2666Stop spreading lies. What was said by his siblings and his staff. He was given pills by someone... One of those two pills he swallowed had full proof fentanyl. He had cameras all over his house and compound. Please stop accusing random people,, The moral of the story is,, never take pills from strangers. Matter of fact he could have secured those pills on his way from his last concert gig. People give pills to friends, family members not thinking twice. Those pills were a extremely higher dosage of fentanyl,💊💊,,that hadn't been cut. He thought he was taking pain pills,, Not fentanyl. The pills he consumed were counterfeit pharmaceutical pain pills laced in fentanyl. 😢. 🌹🌹🥀📿🙏

I have loved Prince since my early teenage years. He was an amazing talent and is a legend and an icon. Also a beautiful man to look at and i love the control he took of his career. What a sad shame to have lost him so very soon. Rest in peace with the ancestors Prince 💔
Im watching the way he was walking in these clips. He's off. He's in obvious discomfort... im watching him trying to avoid pressure when he walks on his left side.. jumping off those high speakers. Jump splits. Wearing those heels and standing on those hard floors. Possibly degenerative issues. Spinal compression? Hip issues.
He had hip issues which is supposedly what led to the frequent usage of pain killers.
Absolutely rips me apart. We all adored him, he was completely taken advantage of and abused by the ones who surrounded him. F..fg Dr..
Losing “Our” amazing, one of a kind, amazing Musician and An Artist of all time, is an absolute tragic loss. I’m still heartbroken as I am and always will be in regards to Elvis, and so many others. RIP my guy, thank you for the unforgettable memories and sharing your talents and hard work with us all. I’m truly grateful to have shared the Planet with you. I’ll see you again. Purple Rain. 💜
Honestly, of all the stars who fell into drugs and who died before their time, I want to say that Prince was probably the LEAST taken advantage of. He was in complete control of his entire life, his image, his career, his music, his output, his studio, his friend group, his band, his circle of influence, all of it. It was a terrible accident that he died. And he died far, far too soon. But the actions leading up to Prince's death are not that of a victim of coercion or control. He sadly ended up with some counterfeit Vicodin and it did him in.
@@violetgc6049
I have to wonder, he was at the emergency room the night before he died, why would he then have to get black market drugs? It doesn’t make sense.
I saw him on his Purple Rain tour in Miami. What an experience!!
Did not know anything about Prince before I watched this. Brilliant, thoughtful, respectful and exceptionally well constructed tribute. I am no longer ignorant. Thank you.💜x
This brother was Healthy, Awake, Always Mind Strong and Extremely Intelligent, you can't ever tell me he died of an opiate addiction or any addiction for that matter. Nah we know the truth, the industry wanted ALL of his Masters (Money) and this is how they acquire them! Let's Be real if Michael Jackson was alive do you think he would have sold his Masters to Sony for $200 million like his family just did recently?!?!? NO FUCKING WAY, that is way too cheap and they ended up with a bargain because they killed the King to manipulate the pawns!

He seemed that way, absolutely. I want to note that I've had friendships for over 20 yrs and didn't no they were opiate addicts. Having had training on "opiate" addiction specifically, I still was unable to detect (pick up on) from a good friend (s) they were on opiates and were not talking small amts as I would imagine u kno their addiction increased over time.

I specifically remember searching for his music on UA-cam, Pandora etc., the week before he died. No where to be found. The day he died, they all had his songs available. Wierd coincidence???
Come on man...are you just dumb or what? Prince didn't release that stuff before had and of course his songs were going to be available when he checked out. Death is always ALWAYS good for any artist. Always been that way and always will
Same here 😢
He had control over distribution and didn’t allow his music on sharing sites. He had a great head for business.

Hi, a very sad, heartbroken Prince fan here from Yorkshire, England. We were born in the same year, I proudly wore a raspberry coloured beret all the way through a very hot summer after hearing his song-" Raspberry Beret" I was besotted with him from the first time I saw him,fell in love with him, his music filled every occasion in my life, the happy and sad times.I like to think, in my dreams, that if we ever met, that we would have been friends, just like so many Prince fans may have thought.I have his pictures around my home, I live alone now so they are a comfort. Out of the blue, I remember he has gone, and my heart breaks over again. But what a legacy of amazing music from a once in a lifetime musician, I treasure every note.i just want to add that I do wish, someone had tried, job on the line or not, to get through to Prince to help him get the help he needed.RIP, my beautiful soul Prince.
17:32 Prince's Super Bowl Halftime Show was a deeply spiritual experience during _Purple Rain._ It still takes my breath away. 💜
Incidentally, THE BEST Halftime show EVER.
I found prince and his magic in 1986 ,I was 14 and getting drug like feeling from every song I heard,collecting prince vinyl,rare tapes ,1989 in cork I saw my idol in the batman tour, I've been to a lot of stadium gigs but that was unreal he did a guitar solo while doin a foot solo on piano,i loved him and we were few in limerick who hung out,including characters ,i would dress up like him,,i still get the same rush from his magic,when he died a bit of me died,he was a special G.O.A.T,a walkin musical note,genius only reserved for Beethoven,Mozart,❤
This had nothing to do with the last 24 hrs of his life ...... opinions
The main problem was that he took a fake Vicodin or Oxycodone pill which was laced with fentanyl. He died because of that poorly manufactured pill.
I was thinking the same thing
Thank you this is bout his life
Some of these video clips are not Prince.. smh
Ya know?
I just can't and won't believe he Died alone 💔 i just missed him so much 😢Gemini forever ♊️💜

I don't believe he was a drug addict, He was too outspoken,

Yes, they forced him to overdose. Irony off.
Anyone can be outspoken. But once pain pills get ahold of a person, they hide it from everyone. He even went to get a prescription in a different name. Pill addicts learn to hide it very well.
@@handsome-brute2666can anyone die without it being a conspiracy?
I’ve worked in nursing for nearly 40 yrs. The Internal Medicine physician I worked for became certified in pain management several yrs ago. We provided pain mgt for our patients rather than refer them out. So I have a background in pain mgt nursing. I agree with you. I don’t believe Prince was suffering from addiction as such .
He had at least one hip surgery from the preforming and injuring himself wearing heels. Jumping from pianos he’d injured joints over the years. He likely needed pain management that included the use of opioid pain pills.
A patients body can become dependent on the medication over time. But “physiological dependence” and “psychological chemical dependence”, or true “addiction” are two very different things.
I think he developed physical / physiological dependence and his doctors weren’t handling things well. Tried stopping or discontinuing his opioid treatment suddenly. So he accepted medication from the streets in the interim which was laced with fentanyl unfortunately. He had no tolerance for fentanyl and it easily overtook him.
What a beautiful soul- He was an Icon and his music lives on baby ☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️
He was DEFINITELY in my top #10 setlist of my life. Just b 4 my highschool graduation, its uncanny how his songs related to my life!

How come nobody speculates Prince's final tweet "Just when you thought you were safe." That's a very eerie statement. It seems as if he was in great fear of something or someone 💯 Prince just doesn't share his private personal information with the world online. I believe that someone had it in for him. Does anyone understand Prince's final tweet 🤯
Wasn't he a major security buff. ?? He only trusted a very few people with private residential security codes to access the property gate and the door codes. So who did this?
Trust I believe there was more to his last tweet. Most definitely
Prince was a musical genius, but he was just a man. Stop treating these people as if they are some higher form of being. Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, Bruce Lee, Michael Jackson, every time a celebrity dies fairly young there’s all these people that are convinced there was some type of conspiracy involved, as if these people aren’t subject to the same foibles and weaknesses the rest of us are. Stop worshiping these people and admire them for their talent and ability to entertain but that’s it. The sad thing is instead of being rational, and realizing that not even Prince is immune to the opioid crisis in America right now, people would rather engage in wild speculations based on flimsy evidence. Meanwhile, our young people are dying due to fentanyl and other opioid based drugs.
Well written 💜
Insecurities
Truely a legendary genius and incredibly gifted man so tragic he's not here anymore absolutely heartbreaking forever etched ln our memories
Bumped off, blatantly 😢
I liked the bits with Rick Astley in them 🙂
His talent was unmatched. He was a phenom.
Rick Astley "He was just amazing, he never looked unwell" Prince and Michael spoke out about certain power in the music industry, they wanted to be free and that's why they died alone.
Cuz they where nasty people in real life no one wanted to be around
First of all, shout out to Prince and his family and his contribution to humanity helping people and so on. Secondly, people don't understand it. When you're in pain you need something to relieve the pain. But you are mostly responsible for how you use what you take for pain. The other thing is no disrespect to anybody in this video, especially Prince Prince, you got to be accountable. What you do for what you take. What you for what you eat. Pain killers is just a mask to what's bothering you you the second way hear all those people around him around him doesn't look like they tried to help him too much to stop the abuse you was going to himself another thing is a reality check. No one is resting in peace. They have simply have died. When you rest in peace you get to get up the next. Check out the history of rip most countries don't even say rest in peace. They say something else. It's more appropriate people that rest in peace. Get up and enjoy another day and life. Whether it's you, me or anyone large or small, black or white, yellow or brown, a lot of people stars and non-stars that went this route. If you never had to deal with this stuff, you are very lucky you are still alive or if we got away from these things safely, you're very much fortunate. It's a saying that this happened to him, him painkillers be them over the counter or prescribe is no joke. Everyone take care of yourselves. It's the only self you're ever have have, live each day to the fullest money. Don't mean a thing if you can't spend it or help somebody else out with it.
I was legitimately shocked by his death, i always heard Prince was anti-drug and to know that he was addicted to opiates and died from the addiction was a total tragedy. And the fact that he died all alone was even more heartbreaking.
He did everything healthy. The industry got him
He was already big why would he commit suicide. Think about the ones he got fired ...
That's just what they wanted yall to believe how sad that it always work on yall not me AKA DRUG OVERDOSE HOW MANY THAT WAS ATTACHED TO I WONDER LETS SEE OOPS TO MANY FOR ME TO LIST BUT I KNOW WHATS UP ITS SAD THAT THEY CAN STILL USE THAT AND THE DEADHEADS STILL BELIEVE IT😮
Addiction is living in a hell (looks like it as everyone in this situation) . It goes slowly and slowly, you start noticing habits you never noticed before. Then the drugs are needed. No friends anymore…
Had the doctors together with Prince talked about it earlier, maybe he would still be alive and make great music…
And his legacy will remain ❤💛🧡🤍🩵💜🩷🧡🤍💚💛💖 59:0158:29
Then I have this feeling that he must have known that his (frail) body could handle that much poison.
If i
However, he may have known 😢, but the doctors know very well his tiime would come very soon .
Prince, I wish you had seen this coming, very soon .
YOU ARE HISTORIC TO ALL THE PEOPLE ❤❤❤
I can't understand why... These performers turn to the drugs I just can't understand why😢😢😢😢🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🤷😭😭😭😭😭
❤ Thank you for the music ❤ Rest in heavenly peace 🕯️❤😢
"Are we gonna let the elevator bring us down?"
People think that lyric was random or coincidental.
He knew in 1984.
He reportedly told L.A. Reid that “the elevator” was the devil (to him), hence the lyric. _If u can believe an alleged deviant like Reid._
😂😂😂
I said that too. What a strange thing.
Ive always wondered why everything was so rushed. Fans didn't get to say goodbye and I do understand he was a private person but he died on a Thursday and by Friday afternoon he'd been cremated. That Van Johnson vampire was getting prescriptions in his name and others for Prince, why wasn't he charged. The guy that supplied Mac Miller with drugs is in Prison.
I'm gonna go with random. 🙄
That gives me chills everytime when I see the super bowl performance Prince wanted to meet me in 2008, when I was on Skid Row, what a life,a love and talent!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜☔☔☔☔
The drug abuse usually happens in every music industry in different countries around the world. I think it’s because nothing matches the excitement of being on stage. That’s the ultimate high. When the Artist experiences that sort of high, the need to replace it with drugs. Classic story. The world has lost many artist geniuses since the beginning of time to drugs.
he did not do drugs till he had hip surgery though.
No matter what when I play live purple rain EVERYONE listens. No one could do what he did even Michael Jackson didn't play everything as far as instrumentally. There are no words that can describe this true genius. RIP prince.
Michael Jackson went! Prince turned down a invitation to be part of we are the world song to help starving kids around the world! yes! what a true genius he was!
I'm very thankful to have grown up while Prince was trailblazing his fantastic and iconic career! I also know how easy he fell into opiate addiction....I also know how he felt the moment he realized he took too much. The fear of death taking hold, the anger of "wtf did I take those last few, I didn't need??" and finally the acceptance of knowing you did too much and now its over...you close your eyes and.....Some of us wake up and some of us dont. I'm truly sorry Prince didn't get the help....that someone didn't give him the hard truth and tough love I got. I have a feeling though...he is out there in the next phase of whatever happens after this life, and he's trailblazing a new and different path!!
❤
What a sad day, when we lost Prince....😢
There should be a waiver signed with these doctors that they are not allowed to perscribe more drugs if they know the artist is already on them
a 1 hour documentary titled "the last 24hours" that addresses less than 10 minutes about the actual last 24 hours
Here's a little known tidbit of Prince history for die-hard fans. I was born '71 & in the 80's my mom had pen-pals, a couple with famous spouses. One was the "wife" of Herve Villechaize/"Tattoo" from "Fantay Island" & the other Country singer & cousin of Jerry Lee Lewis, Mickey Gilley. I got a few signed pics from Herve & was supposed to meet him when scheduled to shoot a Dunkin Donuts commercial in Nashvile, but he tragically passed beforehand. As far as Gilley, one day my mom got a big box from their ranch in Texas full of books & pics signed by Prince, some personalized to mom, some not, & also a brand-new cassette tape of his yet to be released "Raspberry Beret" album. The letter said after "Purple Rain" blew up Prince needed somewhere to get away from it all so went to Gilley's ranch to lay low. Those pics are in storage SOMEWHERE??? But mom gave me the tape. I was a metal-head, but who didn't like Purple Rain? So i took the plastic off, popped it in the tape deck, thought it was awful😅, & chucked it. Wouldn't be worth anything anyway, but would've been an interesting conversation piece right about now.
R.I.P., bros!🙏

It would be worth millions today but I don’t expect descendants of colonizers to understand that.
@@missbehaving9128 Every country on earth's been stolen, friend, and we're ALL descendants of slaves!!!

@@missbehaving9128So hateful
Saw him in Concert in the 80's in Oakland. So sharp and professional.
