overdoses.......

[Macfan4life]

If it turns out that Prince died of a drug overdose and Stevie did not is quite shocking and ironic. Stevie told the story that years after he did Stand Back she was sick in bed and refused to give her cough medicine because Prince said he did not want her to get addicted to another substance (or something like that).
Stevie's Thousand Days is written about Prince and some of the lyrics are shocking.... about him dragging her up the stairs, etc. Now looking back to have thought Stevie survived but Prince did not is pretty ironic.
