Prince Rogers Nelson 1958-2016
His talent was supernatural, but it turns out that Prince was mortal after all.
What a shock. Prince's passing is somehow unfathomable. He was an enigma, and a maverick, and of course, a musical genius. This TV performance of Purple Rain – one of the few untampered-with clips of Prince online – is the merest indication of what the world has lost.
Goodnight, sweet Prince...
