If true then this is a sad outcome.

Thought it was worth posting a music vid in a deceased music star thread.
Oh and Bieber compares himself to Prince now?

It appears we have to mourn for decency as well.

Oh. Did Bieber die as well?
right now that would have been the most common trait possible indeed.I'm gonna be very optimistic and say: I wish him a long life, long enough to catch up a tiny bit of Prince's talent.
Wait. On the other hand, it means at least two centuries of Bieber. Ugh...
I'm genuinely sad about this I hated the music that everybody else liked while growing up late 70s through the 80s.Stock Aitken and Waterman filled the charts with so much garbage and I was seen as a bit weird for liking Prince, Jimmy hendrix and David bowie.
Please tell me that Bieber post isn't real.

I feel bad tonite thinking about Prince and his music.
Another musician that i like is now gone. It looks like a serial killer decided to do his job all in this year.
Oh well... to say the naked true he made all the best he can make 30 years ago...
and i knew that he was fully doped all the time already from the first years of success.
but is the memory of his songs mixed with the story of my life that hurts.
I remember every single song he released connected with every single episode of my life as soundtrack.
I feel like if pieces of my heart are dying one by one.
it's not a good night this time, i feel sorry for him and sorry for me too.
i don't know what else say.

Whatever is the person, I find cruel to finish its life in an elevator
I'm gutted not to have seen Prince play.
True. It is important to remember that. This is why we should grasp everyday as something special.

We can say that each day is a miracle

Many truths in this newspaper article. But I believe that the majority of people are not actually affected by the death of Prince. The fans have compassion but they will forget in a few days and this death does not prevent them from continuing their lives as usual. As for the immense majority of the planetary population, it is the complete indifference. When I look around me in public places, 99% of people do not care. But the journalists and some official statements from celebrities give the impression that billions of people are unhappy. Just look at the number of participants in this thread

I don't think it has anything to do with a faulty moral compass.
I can pretty much guarantee that no-one in this thread knows anyone involved in those unspeakably horrible events the article mentions.
But some people in here have had some of Prince's music as a small part of their lives so there is a connection however remote. We talk about it because it registers with us in some way or other to a greater or lesser degree. Obviously stuff that happens to celebrities is going to hog the news.
The events in the article are reported but they are so off the scale horrible that most of us probably can barely process what's happened and would probably rather not even think about it. I don't think it has anything to do with people not caring or having a faulty moral compass - whatever that is supposed to actually mean. It's just too extreme and too remote and too beyond the control of people in the locality nevermind people on the other side of the world.
happens all over the place all day everyday and most of the time there is sod all we can do about it.
In an ideal world none of this crap would happen, regrettably the ideal world is full of not ideal people.

ETA - would like to have seen one of his gigs. Did he have the whole band or was it more of a solo thing?
