I hear you and it surprises me too but I've learnt there will always be haters. But that has to do with the relationship they have with themselves and not with the one they're dissing. In any case, they bring attention to more people to love this brilliant artist . ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Dana Vixen 😳😵😱 OMG Boy you somethin SERIOUS ...whhhooooo....I NEVER heard a #PRINCE cover this CLEAN 👌👍👏 ......Its a KNOWN fact that he was very 👀peculiar and critical 👂..about people sampling his material .. but I BET MY LIFE ...THIS would have gotten HIS ATTENTION 💯.....You cant just have talent to cover a maestro of this magnitude ...Prince was the BLACK #MOZART ..you have to be GIFTED and YOU DEFINITELY DID THAT 🤘....🖤💚❤💙💜💛🖤

Thanks :). Fixed it. I put this up because I found myself coming back to this clip, looking for the songs I know (I have to admit that I didn't know all the songs in this clip).
+fatboyblue269 : ) Indeed it "is" a most noteworthy tribute to a musical icon....poetic justice indeed. As a former artist whose own dreams were "deferred" I very much appreciate RU-vid for the platform it extends to us all..in a world filled with so much pain what would we be if we could not sing? imagine? ...makes me think of "all" the legends that have come and are now gone.. Imagine there's no heaven It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us only sky Imagine all the people Living for today...#LENNON GOD is most merciful in that he embedded in us love..if there's no love in you then I don't believe there can "be" songs to channel...the true story of my life overflowing with "so" many different songs... if heaven was a mile away I wonder if we'd still be able to hear the gospel of all these lost soul's...
+robertantonnyc I Believe you did first Brother : ) he definitely took it there...it was #CHURRCH! #FACTS....the way it seems as if he just "slides" from one song to the next...I'm STILL sangin along.. "but all I can do is just offer you my love"....he picked the all the right songs to sing 2 ....it's crazy these are most of the songs I kept playing over and over prior to even hearing "L.Young" cover them today...they all brought back memories bittersweet...timeless this music will always be, and this tribute will always be my favorite...instead of mankind dropping "bombs" on each other, it should be mandatory that we "all" had a song to express ourselves....maybe then there'd be a "feasible" or "tangible" hope for humanity...we have "lost" our way within ourselves...now it feels as if little by little we are loosing the very ones who kept this "cold world" turning for longer than it sometimes seems necessary...I don't mean to be a "rainy cloud" or anything it just doesn't feel like there's much more of us leading us to be "greater than" we have been of late...it's like everywhere you look nowadays..the blind leading the blind, and those with ears are deaf and without any understanding...How long ago did #BOBMARLEY "RIP" cry out "his" own Redemption Song? There aren't many "soulful" and or selfless artists today getting the platforms that allow them to exercise their gifts/talents in ways that could and would be detrimental to humanity that's why it bothers me soo...everytime I hear we've lost another great..."sighs" for My Generation Tupac sparked it now we have no more James Browns, Bob Marleys, No Lennons Michaels, no Prince's to keep "THAT" revolutionary hope alive no Whitneys, or Amy Winehouses to remind us all of the war that should have been "fought" tirelessly drugs instead of the poor and "already" oppressed ...if people touching people in good ways via (music) "is" in fact a gift GOD given than any and EVERYTHING else we are being force fed through mainstream media outlets that has in past and will in future be CRUCIAL in our ability to "move" forward successfully as 1 whole people striving for the better should be unanimously deemed as unworthy of attention... (in my world of course ; ) I apologize ...maybe I need to get off this cloud before I bum everyone out.. it is just the humanitarian in me that unfortunately can't help but be wary (inhales/exhales)
Maan those views can't be accurate. I swear I've watched this that many times by myself. Either that's wrong, or folks just don't appreciate greatness anymore smh. Excellent work my man
Got Damn dude, this is crazy! How in the hell can someone be so damn talented. Lead, harmonies and vocal instrumentation are A1. I can tell you have a true passion for music and you are have mastered your craft..... Im 100% Floored #Respect
I have watched this video, literally, like over 100 times. I can't get past the genius in this arrangement. This is also my second comment in this thread because I just have to reiterate how BRILLIANT this talent is. This is absolutely crazy CRAZY good!
L.Young......sir for you to do this tribute with no INSTRUMENTATION and nothing but straight vocal ability......My hat is off to you on a tribute well done...
I am a Prince fan since 1978. I am not easy to please when it comes to covers. I give you ALL THE FLOWERS. This is hands down the best tribute I have seen it heard. Kudos!
thank you, my heart broke when Prince died, I am 48 and have been listening to his Music since I was 13.. this was Beautiful to hear all the songes I grew up with! With "7" was not in it I really loved that song :) Also Contraversy was my first Album.. thank you for the wonderfull memeroys you created today.. Tears of joy run down my face. Please continue your work and make others as happy as you made me today
I'mms just g'head & say what er'body gonna think anyway.....U da man... I don't think it can be done any better unless Prince, himself did this... Damn Brotha... U almost mad me cry.
😳😵😱 OMG Boy you somethin SERIOUS ...whhhooooo....I NEVER heard a #PRINCE cover this CLEAN 👌👍👏 ......Its a KNOWN fact that he was very 👀peculiar and critical 👂..about people sampling his material .. but I BET MY LIFE ...THIS would have gotten HIS ATTENTION 💯.....You cant just have talent to cover a maestro of this magnitude ...Prince was the BLACK #MOZART ..you have to be GIFTED and YOU DEFINITELY DID THAT 🤘....🖤💚❤💙💜💛🖤
SPEECHLESS...Prince is smiling and jamming as hard as we are while enjoying this rendition and homage to in my opinion the greatest to ever do it.. Your talent and hard work will always be appreciated. I follow everything you do because i appreciate the authentic heartfelt energy you have as an artist.. Blessings
This was ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL and a WONDERFUL TRIBUTE to a TRULY MISSED ARTIST better known a PRINCE!!! RIP PRINCE we love and miss you!!! He’s smiling with approval!!!🕊
I've never cried so much from a youtube video could it be you're the most beautiful girl in the world could it be the reason God made a girl... i couldnt help but to burst into tears L.Young thanks for touching my heart
WHO WAS THE 40 THAT DID NOT LIKE THIS.....THIS MAN BRINGS A SMILE TO MY FACE SERIOUSLY.....HE IS PHENOMENAL....LOVE IT....THANK YOU FOR GIVING AND HELPING US TO RELIVE REAL MUSIC.....LOVE YOU BROTHA....KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DOING....AND DO SOME LUTHER VANDROSS AND FREDDIE JACKSON....HELLO
My idol was the Magical like Peter Pan he looked deep into his own musical soul and gave the world Jazz, Latin rock funk fusion He made us dance, cry and get nasty. I must say people cover his songs and try to play like him or sound like him but I must say without a doubt I never cried so much and smiled so hard as of today you hit the nail right on the head you were in the money fantastic and may you also look inside and find that heavenly choir of musical joy. Thank you and god bless
Baby, I have heard A good Tribute to Prince and THIS is the BEST I Have HEARD 👂 ❤ BY FAR, IM talking....Original, Precise, Soulful and REALLLLL, I KNOW MUSIC 🎶 toooooooo, I ain't heard nothing like THIS!! NO WHERE, YOU GO BOYYYYY!!
The min it comes on you can't help but smile... prince music was very spiritual especially his later stuff... but it's just something about the end of purple rain... it turns very much into a gospel song.
#PURPLETEARS4APRINCERETURNED2THEKING... PRINCE- MAY YOU REST ETERNALLY IN PARADISE...INSHALLAH! SALUTE TO YOU L.YOUNG YOU #DIDTHAT BROTHER! HAD ME CRYING HOT TEARS WHEN YOU SANG #DIAMONDSANDPEARLS & THEN ENDED THIS BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE TO A LEGENDARY ARTIST WITH #PURPLERAIN... AS THEY SAY "MUSIC MOST DEFINITELY SOOTHES" : (
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! I just would like to know who the 88 simply swallowed minded people who gave this a thumbs down??? Prince would be flattered!!! To even think to put this together in such an order is just PURE INGENUITY!! DO IT!!!! 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾🎶🎵🎤🎤
I just found this. L.Young, you are one of the very few, perhaps the ONLY one I have ever seen and heard, who can actually cover Prince and do him honor and justice. So perfect. So creative. What a gift. Thank you!
Still the best Prince tribute I’ve seen. He is killing this! How do 95 folks thumbs down on this? I had to look for panties to throw when he hit the Adore opening note at 6:57. Then when he took Purple Rain to church at 8:13 I was done.
when i listen to this i always get the chills off of this 💗😍 and you got that Owa! down this is absolutely beautiful i love it prince would be shocked if he had seen this talent 💜💜💜💜💜
I imagine prince layed the tracks figured out the melody and harmony then did what this guy does; nail the vocal harmonies ! Accapella !! Simply sublime !! Maximum Respect
