I did this back in May of '21, before we moved our home. Things were kinda dark then, and this song moved me through. Keep Staying Awesome, even when you think you're not.

Did some live music in Arvada. Was great! Thanks to Kaia for the capture, Urban Beets for the location and The ALL for the day!

I feel this is the closest I've got to making a Prince cover song, umm... good. I never claimed to be as good as Prince, nor as talented, but I'll be darned if he hasn't created a positive effect in my musical life. I hope this shows my respect to His Royal Purple-ness. Long Live the Prince Legacy. R.I.P.
