Prince 02 London
19 years have passed since I first saw Prince, and this time it showed. The crowd (myself included) were old, the songs seemed laboured and the passion was all but gone.
It was good to hear ‘I Would Die For You’, ‘Sigh ‘O’ The Times’ and ‘Purple Rain’ once more, but the whole thing felt like the pint sized pop poser was just going through the motions. The show was slick and the performance tight, but neither was as inventive or as awesome as I had hoped. I would be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy parts of it immensely, but something has changed and things have moved on.
It doesn’t mean as much anymore - and that makes it all a bit sad.
