Pretty much. They just exploded out of the wood works so to speak.
Heh. The things that outrage somebody enough to go trolling never ceases to amaze me. When I don’t care about something/somebody, I’m “meh” and then go on with life. But I suppose some cranks came out to rant when Bing Crosby and Elvis passed away, too. So it goes.
You’re ranting now. Coming off as unbalanced. Seriously, and with love, get checked out.
Shep Smith on Fox was talking to Kennedy who was a part of MTV in its heyday and had interviewed Prince on a couple of occasion.
He was a composer whose music was more complex than the typical rock music person.
Like who? The early British Rockers were imitating American R&B.
“— So are you saying you are a fan of the Stones?—”
“Not at all. The melodies of the Beatles and their vocal talent was much more pleasing to my ear.”

When they first came out the Stones were considered the kind of guys you wouldn’t let your daughter date, not like those lovable innocent four moptop Beatles.
I guess we can make some presumptions.
Either way, RIP. HE was a crazy one but who isn't?
I’ll take the Hendrix-reincarnated guitarist and multiple instrument prodigy over the child molesting moonwalker for $200, Alex.
Yeah, I remember the girls fighting over who was better between Michael Jackson and Prince in my class room. Us guys stayed out of that battle. Ha ha. Good times.
That person has been a long time troll here. Obvious from their posts that they are bitterly unhappy and miserable person who delight in The failures of others. Ignore them.

And right before Passover, too. The physical world makes for some strange/paradoxical mirrored imagery.
Destined to return as a king formerly known as prince..
I'm bookmarking this one.
RIP
Give it a rest.
When someone passes who is younger than me, and it is not suicide, drugs, or a freak accident, it makes you think. Heart attack brought on by influenza is likely cause of death.
I like most of those you mentioned as well. Not a fan of the Beatles but I was a fan of George Harrison. Bob Dylan, no way. The man cannot carry a tune in a bucket. Prince was a phenomenal guitar player and a lot of people don’t realize that. He also wrote a few good songs. I have a lot of respect for good musicians. I have 2 musicians in my house and I know the time and effort it takes.
Yet Yoko Ono lives.

One thing is for sure - we didn’t go to the same school. Or at least, at the same time. In my classroom the girls debated if Paul or Geroge was the cuter Beatle.
And Lemmy.
So was Glenn Frey who started out with Seger
Could be.
