        Man or not, he's probably gotten more tail than all of us combined.

        For all of you questioning Prince's performing greatness, google search for the SNL performance of "Fury" and the Rock n Roll HOF cover of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps." The man absolutely owns the guitar.

          I'm done trying to convince the haters, but it just ain't right that they can keep disrespecting the legend Prince.

            Yeah, Prince wasn't entertaining or masterful at all in that video (roll eyes). I'm sure we'd all rather see Justin Timberlake or Taylor Hicks during the Super Bowl instead of a maestro showman like that.

            Some of you cats should listen to "1999," "Purple Rain" or "Sign 'O' The Times" from start to finish and try to deny Prince's brilliance. The dude was cutting edge before the blade was even sharpened.

              Absolutely. The cat is multi-talented. He can play any instrament on record or disc.

                One time Prince was shopping at Best Buy and decided to play Guitar Hero 2 on one of their kiosk machines. Prince's guitar skills are so otherwordly, as soon as he struck the first chord of "Iron Man," the entire Best Buy spontaneously combusted.

                  Once I heard Prince was doing the half time show, i about sh*t myself with joy. This dude is amazing, been a fan of his for all of his career, and hopefully I can get to vegas to see him sometime. This will be the first half time show that i will actually be looking forward to in some time. Purple Rain goes down as one of the greatest albums of the last 50 years.

                    I'm surprised there hasn't been a random facts website devoted to Prince yet.

                        Well, i started this & i'll finish it by saying PRINCE IMO is in the TOP 5 as "The Greatest Guitar Players Of All Time"
                        He's a modern Day Jimi Hendrix...

                        4.Prince
                        5.Clapton

                        can someone locate that "Fury" performance? thanks

                          Don't laugh at us Prince fans, I guarantee we have better and more diverse muscial taste than you guys laughing about his halftime performance. You are the ones to be laughed at, to immediatley dismiss someone based on how they look without listening to their vast body of work is the very definition of ignorance.

                            No one has better taste than anyone. More diverse? Yes.

                              Exactly. And what's wrong with the way the cat looks? Sure, it's different, but the man has a style that's all his own.

                              I guess all music stars are supposed to look like this now:



                              I guess if Prince wore Kevlar over some of his outfits, the detractors would change their minds (roll eyes).
