Just hearing the news that Prince has died aged 57. This is a really bad year for loss of talent.
Noooo!
Just heard 🙁
so sad
RIP. Saw reports a few minutes ago.!Some losses are greater than others however, hardly Bowie
He wasn't well at the weekend by all accounts, very sad.
Holy cow. That's really bad and really young.
sad news indeed..
What an appalling thing to say Jambalaya . RIP Prince
@jambalaya it's not top trumps mate...
Anyway, that's a terrible shock, he's only recently come back into the limelight, looked fit as a fiddle last time I saw him on TV.
Sign o the times
Some losses are greater than others however, hardly Bowie
Jesus H christ and I thought sometimes I was crass and tactless.
Shame another great and talented musician who changed the world
WTF! just read the title now.
a musical genius r.i.p prince 🙁
This is why Doves cry.
The artist formerly kn..
Too soon?
Hardly Bowie! Phew I was going to be sad at the loss of a great musician at a young age.
Apparently he has hundreds of albums(!) unreleased.
Bloody hell, enough already 2016, you're taking the piss now.
On his mothers birthday as well...
Sorry
RIP
Darn. Not good.
Omg.I was lucky enough to see him live in the 1980's. Brilliant concert.
He was poorly at the weekend and had to be flown home.
Too young 🙁
I'm a big fan of Bowie and Prince and both are terrible losses. Dirty mind and sign o the times are two of the best albums ever. The lovesexy tour was insanely good too.
Shit, that's awful. His new album was a funk delight, he still wasn't done.
I'll never forget the first time I heard Sign O the Times (On the Peel show). It was so weird and brilliant. One of my all time fave songs.
RIP Purple one.
RIP 🙁
Loved his early stuff.
RIP Prince, the purple rain album is and remains one of my all time favourites. A hugely talented songwriter, singer, musician and performer. He played the guitar like no other I've ever seen or heard.
I'm gutted. There will never be another like him. RIP.
Funnily enough I had only watched this performance online a couple of weeks ago and was struck by the raw talent and energy of the man. Back then his music formed the backdrop to my formative years and I cannot hear songs like When Doves Cry or Purple Rain without being transported back there. A very sad loss. RIP Mr Prince 🙁

Poor quality and 13 minutes long, but WOW
RIP. Saw reports a few minutes ago.!Some losses are greater than others however, hardly Bowie
Why doesn't this surprise me, coming from you.
R.I.P Prince, another musical genius lost too early.
Aye.
That's a loss
Some very significant life events of mine tied into Prince's music. Very lucky to have seen him twice. A genuine icon lost again
Very sad news, huge talent and could play a guitar, had a very memorable night in Santa Cruz making out to Raspberry Beret with a beautiful girl called X 😆
Jamba you made yourself look like a right dick, bravo
Do we get a day off work, or is that only the queen?
Some losses are greater than others however, hardly Bowie
Classy
I was never really a fan of Prince, but even I can hold back dickish tendencies for a minute
Some losses are greater than others however, hardly Bowie
You really have outdone yourself with this comment - what a knobber
RIP, great artist

As big as, if not bigger than, Bowie
Away back under your bridge
For the first time I'm starting to feel a little older. Lots of people from my younger years starting to go....
Singer songwriter and a phenomenal guitarist. Damn.
Actually pretty blown away by this. Too many people dying!!
Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
2 get through this thing called life
RIP superstar
Jamba - you are a .....
Wow. I had the idea from somewhere he was actually super healthy. A JW too?
Far too young.JohnClimbers post made me laugh though.
Jambalaya you are a total cock. RIP Prince.
An artist I never really got round to properly listening to. What I saw though was immense passion and talent. Another entertainment loss.
Man, that's shit. Properly talented musician, soundtrack of my youth.
A fab musician with a bit of an eye for the ladies. Live fast and all that.
RIP
With DebZ on Sign Of The Times. Absolutely freaking awesome album. A girl I fancied was into him so I thought I'd better get to know something about him to get into her pants. Been a fan ever since but didn't get into her pants. Bought her a flipping raspberry beret and everything. Thanks Sarah. 🙂
Also a classic Popmaster "Once at One" question.
"I Could Never Take The Place Of Your Man" remains one of my all time favourite songs. He was a genius.
Jamba - you're such a massive bellend.
Incredible musician and a sad loss to the music world.
I'm of the age where his music was always present and generally awesome.
Plus he bought Carmen Electra to the world, which is no bad thing.
