Last night I had a weird and wonderful dream about Prince. Weird because since April 21st, it's the only Prince dream that I've woke up from feeling happy and forgetting for a brief moment that he's not here. Wonderful because having never met him in life, yet so up close and personal in my dream is every fans perfect dream really, as it's all we have left now.
Prince Smiles - There were a lot of smiles and laughter in my dream |
The full picture is a
little sketchy and I was woken from my dream by my nightmare
neighbours, make of this what you will... I'm assuming the setting
was Paisley Park and possibly a church. Prince was hosting an event
for an audience of well over 100 women, including myself. All
colours, all sizes and all ages (over 18, of course). There was
food, drink, games, Prince music and videos I've never heard or seen before.
Prince was flitting from group to group chatting, laughing, flirting
and dancing with these women. He showed me some pictures which he
had taken himself and asked which ones I liked. There was one I
wasn't too keen on (I have no recollection of what it was), so I pulled a shade
face. Prince laughed, playfully snatched them out of my hand and
swaggered off. I found myself in a very unflattering position along
with a group of ladies, trying out the "Gett Off"* dance mat.
This virtual mat guided some of Prince's funkiest dance steps and he
was there, urging us on, shouting out instructions. There was so
much going on and everybody was happy, especially Prince. Even when
we all ended up in some type of church, the mood was upbeat. Prince
played the organ whilst a choir, all female, sang. We all had either
a bible or hymn/song book, white with Prince's symbol in gold
embellished on it. I recall sliding off the polished oakwood pew as
we all ran out to follow Prince's next adventure for us. He was so
alive, energetic and all I've ever imagined him to be.
There was quite a bit
of travelling in the dream (a coach and a plane), if Prince is trying
to tell me to face my fear of flying and go and visit Paisley Park,
he needs to also show me a sign of how to raise the funds.
Posted by Sheila E on FaceBook October 1st 2016 |
Whilst editing this
piece I came across a post from Sheila E on FaceBook who also dreamt
of Prince last night. Obviously, her dream is more deeper and
prominent knowing Prince on a personal level but I feel kinda chuffed
at the connection as Sheila said he was happy in her dream too. I
hope I have more like last night. I love meeting Prince in my
dreams.

* Quite eerie that there was a "Gett Off" dance mat when today marks 25 years since Diamonds & Pearls was released.
