Prince took inspiration for "Into the Light" from Betty Eadie's 'Embraced by the Light,' a best-seller about what happens after death.

There are still questions about how Prince got the opioids that led to his death in April 2016.

Prince never forgot his musical roots, keeping 'Proud Mary,' the first song he ever played on guitar, in occasional rotation.

Of her collaborations with Prince, "101" didn't scale the chart heights of "Sugar Walls" or "U Got the Look," but Sheena Easton called it her favorite song she's ever made.

'Xpectation' was the first installment of a trilogy of jazzy detours Prince took in 2003.

Prince defined what style is and isn't on a track from 1996's 'Emancipation.'

"The Love We Make" is said to be about Jonathan Melvoin, the brother of Revolution guitarist Wendy, who died of a drug overdose on tour with Smashing Pumpkins.

As a guitarist, Prince was often compared to Jimi Hendrix, but he felt a closer connection to Carlos Santana.

"I’ve always looked forward to the day when I would be free from any demands of any kind from anyone — free to do everything I want to do."

Prince indulged his playful side on the b-side 'La, La, La, He, He, Hee,' which he co-wrote with Sheena Easton about a cat in a tree.
