Music

While my guitar gently weeps

This is an all-star version of Harrison’s probably most famous song and it pretty much blows my mind.

Prince may be a tad insane, but he knows how to work that Telecaster.

Prince: I am music

Prince or Symbol or The man who hates the Internets, in an interview with The Guardian. And despite (or maybe because of) the fact that he’s quite probably very insane, it’s an interesting read:

Sometimes he seems a little too fond of boundaries. “It’s fun being in Islamic countries, to know there’s only one religion. There’s order. You wear a burqa. There’s no choice. People are happy with that.” But what about women who are unhappy about having to wearing burqas? “There are people who are unhappy with everything,” he says shruggingly. “There’s a dark side to everything.”

Noting my unconvinced expression, he tries to clarify, but gives up with a sigh. “I don’t want to get up on a soapbox. My view of the world, you can debate that for ever. But I’m a musician. That’s what I do. And I also am music. Come to the show for that.”
