The music icon, who passed away April 21, 2016, made an impact on many with his creativity and ability to remake himself. This story, however, shows yet another side to him. In 2007, rain plagued most of Super Bowl XLI.

A week ago, I fell off my bike while riding down a steep hill. I went right over the handlebars, and the bike followed me. It’s the worst accident I’ve had…ever. I’ve torn a ligament in my knee twice. I’ve fallen of horses numerous times. But this was the first time I’ve gotten up from
