Purple Reign: Landmarks Across the World Shine Purple For Prince

So this is what it's like, when the world cries...

2016 has been a horrible year in the music industry, as we've lost a couple big names already in Glenn Fry, David Bowie and Merle Haggard... and now Prince.

Although he'll always be considered as "one of us", Minnesotans weren't the only ones who mourned the loss of a great musical icon.

All around the world, people showed their love and respect for Prince Rogers Nelson by lighting up landmarks the color purple.

And then there's this incredible photo captured by Delyse Rosso in Alaska... It's of Mt. Susitna (The Legend of the Sleeping Lady) around 10pm Thursday night - Just beautiful!  Thanks to Mike Mizer for the help in tracking this photo down and bringing this to light to share with the world.

In case you missed it, here's how Minnesota businesses and landmarks honored Princes legacy... may he RIP.
