The fact that Prince would give the spotlight to other musicians speaks to how wonderful and humble he was. The world suffered such a loss when he passed.
Amen. I concur!!!
His music 🎶 still lives on and on and....
He always had Morris Day and at tomes Shelia E perform with him. They know him well even before the fame.

This magic happens when you give a musical genius 12 mins to do whatever he wants to do. 👏
Thats right but he always knew that Morris Day could steal the show in any gig, thats why Prince only gave him 1 minute exactly on this performance. Morris became a monster (created by him of course) and was his eternal rival. RIP Prince.
Yes sir, 12mins of real music. Imagine this...his concerts going on avg. 2hrs-2 1/2hrs then a couple hrs later having a after party show that goes well into the early morning hrs. There is no one on planet earth that does that. I've been to 4 concerts and 1 after party show and let me tell you the after party was such a treat. Usually went like this...go to concert and at the end of that hearing an announcement stating the after party location. People would rush to that location and it was first come first serve basis. Free admission and it would fill up to building capacity. Such a blessing to be a part of his performances. God bless and remember to always Liv4luv
@@josepha.8893 No sir Morris Day and the time were a side project that Prince created as a rival only in the movie Purple Rain. Morris and some members were good friends of Prince in their school days and continued through out his career. "The Bird" and "Junglelove" were written, composed and produced by Prince. The Time toured with Prince many many shows. It was surely a joy to experience. God bless and remember to Liv4luv
@@dragonballz4998 Thank you.
Fact!💯
How do you squeeze a whole concert into 12 minutes?
Answer: Prince
This!!!!!!
I just shared this video on FB and said this medley gives you the vibe of how Prince energizes his audience and his stagemates!!!
I was so very lucky to see him live several times. ♥️♥️♥️
Just like that
Awesomeness at its finest...Prince 💜
The ONLY Answer
Genius !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Prince was the truth. He lived HIS life, on his terms, according to his beliefs, and didn’t give a damn about what others thought. That’s freedom and freedom of expression.
Sounds like Frank Sinatra! Well, they' both in the same place now.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏@@jonathandoelander6130
No one could ever duplicate Prince!
This is what a music show should be like. None of that shit we have at the grammys or Billboard awards nowadays
That can't be said enough. Prince was big on musicians playing real music and he hated lip syncing.
God bless and always Liv4luv
Yesssss. Truth!
MAN I miss the music awards back in the 80's. They were EVERYTHING! Those of us who couldn't go to the concerts, we couldn't wait to see our heroes jam on basic television lol
Right
I absolutely agree!!
Real music, real musician, real talent
Yes sir
His mic was ALWAYS on!
Prince is the GOAT, there is ZERO discussion about this.
He did more in twelve minutes than most do in a lifelong career.
😂
Mannnnnn🤣🙌🏽💜💜💜
The musicians in the back were killing it!!! They were having a good time on those instruments.
My favorite part
i love Michael Jackson....but....a PRINCE performance is on another level.
No need to bring one up when something is about the other
@@Lookfortruth7 fr
mj lives in prince fans head forever😂😂just goes to prove how big the gap is between them
@@5xjosee566yeah MJ was far below him lol
I agree!❤
NOBODY brings it like this!! Prince was our Mozart - Undeniable. Musical. Genius.
Faaaaaaaacts!!!!
💜🙏💜
Man, I can't describe how much I miss Prince. I remember watching this and losing my mind! When Morris and Jerome hit the stage, that blew the roof off the spot, and then Sheila E. too!!!!!!! Watching Prince do his solos on the bass and guitar had my head f'd up!!!! Then the band in the back was absolutely destroying the groove!!!! I'm all over the place, but this brought back so many memories!!!!! Man, I miss Prince so much!!!!!!
Prince was a Genius ❤️
@vearzany buggs A friend of mine introduced me to Dirty Mind album. That was my first real exposure to the man who would become my all-time favorite artist. I saw Purple Rain on the first day, first showing it came out. I've seen it so many times that I can pretty much do the script by heart. Lol. I agree, his best music was with The Revolution, but he kept coming with the hits and uniqueness that only a tried and true fan could fully appreciate!
@vearzany buggs I absolutely remember those groups! My cousin introduced me to the family (he was a Prince fan before I was so he was deeper into the side projects) and Screams of Passion. Maszarati was another under appreciated off shoot of that Minneapolis sound! Music will never be like it was back then. Ever!
His concerts was unbelievable!!
@vearzany buggs Front row going crazy! 😂 😂 😂 I also need to clarify that my cousin introduced me to the music of The Family and not the group itself. Lol. I wish I had the opportunity to meet any of them, even now just to ask how those masterpieces of music were thought of and created. I watched Morris' interview with DJ Vlad three times. Lol. The Time, for having such a short run, are music royalty and whenever they get on stage it's sure to make people move their bodies because they have no choice once the beat drops! I can't describe the feeling I get when I hear, "WHAT TIME IS IT????!!!!" except pure adrenaline!!! 😂 😂 😂
This was the going away party for real funk and real musicianship!! Don't cry because it's over... Smile because it happened. ( Dr. SEUSS )

Here January 26,2024...Truly Missed..REST ON💜💜💜
Man, we miss you, we miss you, we miss you! 😢
Is nobody talking about how good he also could play the bass? It's stunning!
Prince is in the top 3 guitarist of all time.
Yess, he paalayed that bass too!
That was actually his main instrument
He could play over 27 instruments. Child prodigy. He was a true musical genius and artists.
You know the people who invented the electric organ had no idea it was going to become the Blackest instrument ever.
Long history of black people showing everyone else how to really play an instrument
PRINCE WAS WITH NO DOUBT THE GREATEST PERFORMER ARTIST MUSICIAN EVERRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!! THE WORLD MISSES YOU BEAUTIFUL PRINCE!! REST IN PARADISE LEGEND!!
There will never be another Prince, NEVER! so damned talented!
Still watching in Sept. 2020, this music that will last forever!
The Mozart of our time.
Damn rightt!

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
WELL SAID‼️
You know Prince is the absolute boss in everything when despite he's not subordinate to no one, ever, yet he makes every musician shine the best they ever dream to shine by themselves.
This will forever be one of the greatest live musical performances of all time.
Lol some of the famous musicians in the audience were looking at Prince like, “Dang. I ain’t never gonna be this good...”
Interviewer - ‘So Prince, what do you smoke?’
Prince - ‘All other musicians, dancers and singers’
God how it still hurts that he left us. Music died for me. The most gifted Artist in the history of music. Bar none.
OzzieLFC I’ll drink to that!🍻
Paul Valenzuela, cheers!!!
😅😅😅😅
When performing live meant something
Genius......he could croon, coo, rock, party, gospel, man-voice,.....such an unbelievable talent!!! ....he's superb at everything!
Pr Powell just my opinion, but Neo Soul comes from Prince.
@@courylanders4142 Just watched a vid on The Roots page of their DJ, Questlove playing 5 straight hours of songs that were influenced in some way by Prince. Tons of Neo Soul in there. D'Angelo cover of Pop Life about an hour in that blew me away.
His vocal abilities amaze me still & never lost it
Words cannot describe the Master Class that this session was! All true musical genius - with The Purple One at the helm!
Especially the improv 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I would have lost my mind at this performance 🔥🔥🔥
When Prince puts a mic in your face you dont make excuses! You sing damn it😆
LadyMarie J I saw that too, but I don’t know, I’d be pretty aw struck, shell shocked, pretty much in a trance...😳😳😳
that lady who sang was amazing
...she TRULY ...was the BELLE OF THE BALL...I noticed her right off in that pretty green cocktail dress..balling her behind off...in that sea of women in basic black...and the way she was dancing shaking everything her mama gave her...then he gave her the mike...and she served us VOICE...GOD BLESS HER...and the look on her face when she saw she had the chance you could see her consider it...then she WENT OFF...the gentleman that he gave the mike to next was very smooth too...it's truly a moment for all 3 of them...
A whole concert in 12 mins!!!🔥🔥🔥
Prince... The real genius.
Thank you Mr. Nelson
The way Prince coordinated the order of all these great songs & highlighted different musicians & singers & played so many instruments & then the cherry on top ending w long time collaborator the. brilliant Sheila E. & Prince doing several songs --- just WOW. I love when Prince went into the audience playing the tambourine while singing along to "Glamourous Life" was fantastic. Genius is not strong enough a word.W-O-W.
12 minutes of watching this video was well worth it. Prince was and still is the greatest legendary music artist of all time. He could sing, dance, and play instruments, that’s real talent right there.
Damnnnn .... i am deep into metal and rock but this dude was something else entirely
PREXACTLY
DAAAANNNNNGGGGG THOSE BASS LICKS......JUST IN CASE YOU DID NOT KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!! HE PLAYED EVERYTHING AT A MAESTRO LEVEL R.I.P PRINCE ONE OF THE BEST TO EVER DO IT
5:15 favorite James Brown song “I Don’t Want Nobody to Give Me Nothing”, brilliantly sampled by Janet Jackson in “Skin Game”. Thank you Prince for channeling the King JB❤️
Currently crying like a baby for the love and loss of the man PRINCE
Afi Salahuddin me too😭😭
@@bigamiko1 let's hold hands...😭😭😢🤗🎼♥
Same here 😭
I love this man so much
Genius!!! Soul, blues, funk, rock , pop and one of the best guitarist of all time!
She went CRAZY with those drums😍🔥🔥🔥🔥
It wasn't 12 minutes for me because I couldn't stop replaying the "The Bird" section or Sheila E. playing the drums, but everyone went the hell OFF in this performance.
Sheila Brought tears to my eyes!! what a mastery, what love and what rhythm! God knew what he was doing with her!!!
When Tito Puentes is in your roots, let the spirit of badass flow...l love her..
what does it have to do with any god? Keep it for the pulpit. She's responsible for her own talent through hard work and nobody else.
@60toodles God given talents. How about you not knock another person's compliment
Such joy and sadness to watch and listen to the greatness of Prince knowing that we will not see this live again.
Prince was one of a kind. Hearing of his death was like a punch in the gut. 😒
Exactly how I felt too. I cried for 4 days. And I still cry now. I enjoy watching these videos but it’s always bittersweet. The man was the embodiment of musical genius and charisma. 💜💜😭
I was shocked,I would see it on Facebook at first,my response was alright this s#!+ ain't funny.I went right over and turned on my radio and knew without anyone saying anything that it was true because they played one song after another by him I loved me some Prince and would have loved to have met him.I would collect instruments hoping to one day learn to play them and knowing he loved basketball,I could have given him a run for his money.I grew up watching Prince remembering a show called job man caravan and got to see him sing I want to be your lover.At one time I was buying all his music but after I went off to college then military I couldn't keep up like I used to.Im trying to figure out how some of my music by him turned up missing,he is missed
You ain't lying. I was napping and my co-worker texted me and then I got the text from the Tom Joyner morning show, but I was in denial. Until the radio kept playing his songs. It was a Prince weekend. R.I.P. Beautiful One.
Wtf did i just watch??? I'm speechless
"Young and old gather round everybody hail new king in town"
I wouldn't want to be the next act to take the stage after that performance. 💜🔥🔥🔥
Musical Genius....end of discussion!!!!!! Miss him so much
One of the best ever, R.I.P prince
Can't be replicated or duplicated. There will only be one Prince. Grateful to have grown up on his music, such a talent musician
Best concert ever in just 12 minutes. Prince is truly one of a kind.
"Ya'll ain't ready". They never were ready for that transcendence you put on 'em. I ADORE YOU!!!
Oh God I wish I would have been able to see Prince perform. God he was amazing.
Real musicians performing at the highest level and it was an epic performance. I loved it!
Although there are no dancers, this was very much so entertaining!!! The musicianship.
I want him here 😔. But glad we had him 🥲
Nothing better than live Prince.......luv it!!!
I just realized why I liked this performance so much. The editing on the video is great. It captures the most expressive reactions.
I worked on this show. Prince actually came to the editing bay to help with the cut of his performance. Pure genius.
The guitar defies Newton’s law of gravity.
i didnt see it drop either lol
All of his seem to ✨😭
Good grief, these transitions were perfect.
Pure , True Musical Genius. His Love was Music.
His Royal Badness at his very best with a show featuring great musical talent that truly get's you up just applauding musicianship & song. Man I miss him so very much!
The most beautiful , talented funky man that ever stepped amongst us and boy I feel so lucky that that I was here to him 👁🌏🎸🙏
This music and a drink and I'm good💜🥃
This is such a heartbreaking thing. Although it is a display of some of the most genius musicianship band leader singer-songwriter dancer guitar player bass player and all that. Displayed here in these little 12 minutes. Prince showed out! And man we miss you.
I remember watching this on TV. My cousin used to go to Prince concerts with me. Her parents watched this and were blown away. We tried to tell them...now you know from a few minutes what we experience during a whole concert!
Prince 🤴 gives u an experience like no other when he performes... that's what he gives, unforgettably.
This talent will NEVER BE DUPLICATED
Blessed to have seen him in concert a few times back in the day...and not once was anyone in the crowd able to sit still! FULL THROTTLE FUNK.
Holy holy holy GODDD.
So many great references to incredible other artists in this jam. And Sheila E done killed her drums !
You can’t replace Prince ever
I like to watch this every few months it always make me feel good good and this has been since it was performed live
Miss U Prince!
I can’t even wrap my head around how talented this man was. His body of work is so diverse, I have never seen an artist that is this well rounded. I am especially loving Prince’s blues and gospel inspired work. It’s amazing to see his style shift thru the years. What a tragedy to have lost him😢💜
Prince, Sheila E & The Time all in one performance...QUALITY!
I'd pay anything for 12 minutes of prince
Oh yea i watched it live with my grandma who was a Prince fan She loved his dirty drawers as she would say and would be grooving to the beat. She predicted that young man in the audience would be our next president that night as well
LEGENDARY LIVES ON.....PRINCE💜💜💜💜💜
😭Lord, I miss this man!!! Such a musical genius. I had the privilege to see him perform live and OMG this same energy is him during a 3-hr concert with NO other artists!!! Just pure, unadulterated, music. The man never looked tired, sounded like his music and entertained the WHOLE show😍🔥 I'm thankful that God allowed him to use his gift for so many years and he can live on through it. Nobody comes close to Prince 🙏🏾 RIP Prince Nelson Rogers aka The Artist
I don't even know half of these songs and this was amazing. I love when an artist can set back and let someone else shine. People always say Prince was this and he was that, but this dude showed respect to people. He may not have always liked certain people, but he never really went out of his way to disrespect someone. If you asked him why he did something or didn't do something, he was honest, and people didn't like that.
Fake cough he didn't like Sinead O'Connor lol. Yes I agree he always shined the light on other musicians that he admired. So many I couldn't give an accurate account. Sheila E though was one of his greatest proteges. In this performance he honored The Impressions, Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Carlos Santana and of course The Time. Great Set list he put together and it makes me happy you enjoyed it. My love for Prince started age 9 when I "borrowed" my sister's record album 1999. God bless and remember to Liv4luv
He’s a typical Air sign. Blunt, straightforward but very honest.
Also -- Larry Graham/Graham Central Station
@@dragonballz4998 Sinead is literally nuts. She's hated him since he told her the truth about her ruining a song he wrote for one of his groups. She's also a bit r*cist so she hides it behind this yt feminism bs with a story that keeps getting wilder as time goes on.
Raise your hand if you watching this in 2021. 🙋🏽♂️

2024 and beyond. ❤
watching this put tears in my eyes, I miss prince being on earth with us...he gave us so much & I'll be forever grateful.
Prince was a genius, I wish I could have seen him live. What an amazing performance, by all of these artists!
It was long ago but I got to see him live and I can honestly say, he wore us out, lol. Heck, I felt guilty and wanted to pay him again and again. Definitely got my money's worth. Awesome performer and loads of energy.
This performance is amazing, when I watched it the first time I literally was speechless!
My beautiful enigma was born for the stage. Respected, and regarded as one of, if not the greatest musician of all time. He graced the stage, and even the most distinguished ladies, and gentle can help but acknowledge that they are in the presence of a musical genius by busting a move. Prince flowed so naturally, and it appear, although through hard work effortless. I love you Prince.
I'm inclined to remove "one of, if not" from your statement.
I don't fully commit because, there were a lot of musicians before him, and I feel he would deem it disrepectful to someone more deserving..
Class and Quality have never been so robbed of room.
@@davidbaines1425 You're entitled to your opinion, as I am to mine. I don't think that he would find my opinion disrespectful at all. It is MY opinion, and MY TRUTH, My love for Prince.
@@princesshighfrequency8938 You missed my point. And unfortunately by a very long way.
Respected, and regarded as one of, if not the greatest musician of all time. - Remove "One of, if not"- what does it leave..?
I doubt he would admit he was the greatest, feeling he disrespected "better musicians" if we managed to bestow that acolade on him.
I did have a dig at his height.. But essentially I was pointing out that so much Quality and Class were never crammed into such a small space.
I love that look he gives Sheila at the end after she has destroyed that cymbal..
HORNS and vocals on point. This band they READY to rock. PRINCES falsetto is amazing amazing amazing and ICONIC.
The best 12 minutes
Ever
RIH
Prince.
What's great is that he used the same guitar for the 1999 era and started off with DSMR
I knooooow 😭😪
Prince, thank you for all of the amazing music and the legacy you left. We miss you 💜💜💜
RIP GREAT ONE…this was so amazing ..shared his shine with friends 👏🏽 the performance had me smiling, dancing, laughing and crying in awe of this brilliance.
HE IS DEARLY MISSED
True 👑 king 💪💪real music to listen too🇲🇽💪💪💪miss u brother
now that's what you call a performance! This makes me wish how much I would've loved to watch him perform when he was alive
Always loved music...the P. Not just soul, or pop, or rock. He loved soooo many genres. And it came out in his music. There will never be another. RIP...Genius. I keep you alive in my ears, mind and heart.
That guitar🎸 just went up to heaven to wait for him💜🌈💜
NONE BETTER THAN PRINCE..MASTER OF FUNK
And Mr. James Brown...let's not forget him. The Godfather of Funk.
I love that he paid homage ... Clearly he learned a lot from Larry Graham, as he definitely did justice to "the Jam" slapping that bass, and Lawd, that Aretha cover was amazing too .... Sheila E just keeps getting younger, and Prince has been severely and unfairly underrated as a guitarist in his own right. His fret work is beyond incredible here, and at the induction of George Harrison into the R&R HOF ceremony. RIP ANGEL!
How was he underrated as a guitarist and u can hear his guitar on the most iconic songs in music history that's got to be one of the dumbest statements on CZcams and why do folks use the word underrated on CZcams so darn much
Nothing hes ever done was underrated stop it
I had the pleasure of seeing this genius twice; 2004 (Musicology)& 2012 (Welcome 2 Chicago) I’m still in awe! After each show I just stood there until the lights came on and security said thats it! Just amazing! I couldn’t believe I was there watching Prince on stage💜💜
SHIELA FUCKIN E!!!
So gat damn talented
That was music!
Name one artist today who can remotely pull off this level of artistry and musicianship. Nobody! Not even close
