Yesterday the world was shocked to learn that one of its most inventive and colorful musicians, Prince, had suddenly died at the age of 57. Fans of all stripes have been mourning his passing and cities have been paying their respects to the man who was so influential to the man who made such an indelible impact on pop music and music in general over the past 30 years.

Tributes to his life were found in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Minneapolis and all across Minnesota, the state he was proud to call home, Atlanta, New York City and even Niagara Falls unwittingly got in on the action.

See how the world paid tribute to Prince below.

The City of San Francisco lit up its city Hall in honor.
