The Beautiful Ones - Prince tribute thread.

[Destinysdaughter]

Here we are, a week after Prince suddenly passed away. This is a thread to grieve, share your memories, thoughts, stories, videos and songs.

Let's keep on supporting each other in the name of The Beautiful One.

Here you are last photo of the day!
Night all sweet dreams!

How lovely all those pics

I had to change my name because someone on another thread was hisnamewasprinceandhewasfunky

Now they have never appeared on here

So I changed my name to above

I've always been HRH, as my friend in school used to call me duchess, but it's a nice prince touch

Blimey, you lot have been busy!

Feel like I need to name change for this thread now. Will have to have a think overnight and see what I can come up with.

Doubt I'll have time to catch up with the thread tomorrow though, as I'm busy all morning and then have a really horrible dentist's appointment in the afternoon.

Loving all the namechanges!!

Am just trawling through catching up on all the links...some great stuff there. The more I watch, the more I appreciate how talented (and gorgeous!) he really was

Enjoying the 3121 album at the moment, just bought it. Have decided to go back into the Denial Phase as it is just too hard otherwise!

his Royal Badness is another good name.

Both my dss have SATS today so we drove to school with 1999 at full blast on the cd in the car, singing our heads off.

lol love all the name changes, you're all beautiful ones for sure ...so much stuff appearing on you tube now! agree with you Maybe the more I watch ...the more I love him

Favourites from last night -

Prince on the muppets, too lovely for words, god what a good dad he would have been..I would have had his babies 4sure! kind of hoping that he did actually have a love child who comes out and says he was a great dad and always involved in their life..maybe that's why he didn't leave a will - because he knew he had a child who he was happy would come forward and inherit the lot ?!

Also love this interview with Chris Rock (1997) some great questions and you can tell he was totally at ease with him and where he was in his life at that point - I read a few times that he seems at his happiest in the 90s

Then this duet he did with Kenrick Lamar & 3rd eye girl@ Paisley Park last year
So unbelievably cool , showing the new school how it's done..now off to listen to more Kendrick Lamar, seeing as Prince was obviously a fan

Buttermymuffins that should get them going for the day!

Tonightyoureastar the muppets is just too adorable, so so sweet, agree with what you wrote about that, thanks for posting, my little 3yo loved watching it too!

Hello! Trying out my name change (tis Moogdroog here) and reporting a break through! I managed to get through several songs without tearing up this morning. It did help that I was doing my makeup at the time, so clearly didn't want to undo my handiwork.

Lots of links to catch up on, but I did make time to watch that Violet video. Flippin' Nora!

23positionsina1nightstand - awesome NC

I have a big negotiation meeting with lawyers tomorrow in the City which I am quite nervous about & if it all start going tits up I have decided that I'm going to tell them in no uncertain terms that I am Violet the Organ Grinder & I grind my organ all day long. See how that goes down.

Pleasing parcel this morning

How about wear something like this butter as a distraction technique!

It's a lovey hat. Butter - You could part the chain curtain suggestively to make your salient points.

I think maybe we all need one? Could be like the Mumsnet Scarf!

Love it 23. Blimey away for the weekend and so much to catch up on!!

lol - who needs sunscreen with a hat like that :-)

Getting into all the name changes! Been watching New Girl a lot, so commutergirl is now princeismagic.
Just catching up on all of the links. When my 2 year old us up from his nap, we'll definitely be watching the Muppets till DH gets home and tells me I'm a sad obsessive. He's already watched Sign of the Times this morning and finds Cat and Sheila E quite entrancing.
Butter, I think violet the organ grinder should be your opening gambit and see how things go from there.

I'm now in London Town so might nip out to find a hat like that. I'm sure it won't take long...
