this man is a genius and the movie of purple rain rocks i wish i could go back to the 80,s people were much more fun then than today everyone todays all depressed and worried about there jobs where as i think im the only guy in the world whos not worried about money because whats the point of worrying it wont get anyone anywhere just relax and enjoy great music like this
@hotcoko6 OMG u to? This was out before my time and it just stays new and it's what 2012? How the fk does that happen? Genius, just a God given talent for music.
I was in high school when this movie came out and I remember thinking that prince was a little strange back then. Don't get me wrong, I loved this movie and album as much as the next person, but years later, after watching the Chapelle show and Charlie Murphy's little story about his meeting prince, I feel that I might have been right. Or perhaps I am just mistaking what I consider strange for what is a truly eclectic personality.
@42williamj No you are right. I was a little kid when this stuff came out, to small to understand but I always knew that Prince was...different. They say true artists..The Greats, .. philosophers, musicians, are strange, different. You have to think, what kind of person teaches himself 13 different instruments before being a teenager. They said Prince was this kid prodigy known in MN as this wonder kid. That is...strange. Genius. Divinely guided. But strange. And I'm so glad he is.
to this day since I first heard this song when I was 10 years old, I can't go on a motorcycle ride with anyone that this song doesn't pop in my mind....I love you Prince you always been and always will be Sexy Mother Fucker!!!!!
PRINCE IS BRILLIANT! In MY Humble Opinion... NO ONE COMPARES... Michael Jackson WAS A GREAT Talent, Indeed! But PRINCE Just Blows him Away, in EVERY WAY! As a Performer, Professional, Innovator, and Especially in CLASS! He Just HAS Delivered THE BEST MUSIC and NEVER Had to Be an ATTENTION WHORE or FREAK! Delivers and STAYS Private! I SO ADMIRE HIM; He IS A Legend(Does NOT get enough Credit but does NOT NEED It!)! He IS ROYALTY!
@cskirwan3 - not a freak? lol, who else is freakier than Prince? the guy pushed the envelope! that's why i love him. i know he would take offense to that remark too. if you're implying MJ was a freak b/c he bleached his skin, that's a lie. he had a diagnosed skin disorder - you can find the info on wiki. also P did not blow away MJ. they were both phenomenal in their own unique expression of themselves. the rest of your perception of MJ is based on lies the media spoonfed you, not the truth.
@cskirwan3 I found it interesting how much attention he got when he had changed his name from "Prince" to the unpronounceable "symbol" he created.... leading him to be referred to as "the artist formerly known as Prince". Ah, the guy created some fantastic music early on in his career, but I think he craved attention. The Purple Rain LP is one of the best albums of the 80s and this song is fantastic.
stop it with mj please. boring. mj is like a fantastic airplane pilot and prince like a great airline owner , who also happens to be one of the best pilots, and at that an aerodynamic engineer, chemist,metallurgist, propeller specialist, rocket scientist....
@TheDfeetondabeat You are going to far! As much as I love both Prince & Micheal neither of them deserves 2 be in the same sentence as God. Do you even know who God really is? Apparently not! He's the one who gave Prince & Micheal their talents. God _possesses_ the skill that was bestowed on each of them. Those skills are _gifts_ Everyone can't do what Prince & Micheal has done. Because their talents are divine. God is divine & worthy of praise for his _awesome_ talent!
@cskirwan3 Dumbass, none can take on the King of Pop, MJ TOTALLY OWNSSS lil' Prince!! It's clear if you compare each others successes, Prince's everlasting stamp on music is like a little hill, while MJ's stamp is like the freakin MOUNT EVEREST! KING OF MUSIC - MJ
@cskirwan3 I know, I LOVE Micheal Jackson also he was freakin brilliant but Prince is more so, a _Genius_ of a talent and he just _wows_ me all over, every time! Just a talent for the ages and I'm so glad he's shared his God given genius with us!!!!
@cskirwan3 I 100% agree with you. Prince was my first concert when i was 15. my mom took me and said you need to see prince he doesn't tour all the time. it was the musicology tour prince blew me away
todo este disco de prince esta chingon este es el k megusta de el yo lo e conprado como dies beses iseme pierde pero de k esta chingon esta chingon yo lorenzo de santa ana maya mich
Hey, Man, THANKS for posting! Do you happen to have the 4 and 1/2 minute long extended version of this song? I recall hearing it years ago, and I think it may have only come out in Europe. Let me know. Thanks.
a true prince .....and a legend,i bought all his albums and wore them out.nuff said.this is the only guy in the world i would love to meet,i would sell my soul for that,any offers please apply.
OMG @jonat268, I share a VERY similar memory of this one! My parents were music-obsessed, but my moms leanings were rarely toward anything secular, while my daddy rocked out to EVERYthing! Still, in a household of Prince fanatics, this album & movie were big favorites in those days. So, any time this song was playing, or the scene was on where Prince is riding around with Applolonia on the back of his bike, my mom would sing the hook with me and dance like crazy. Fucking awesome memory.
@xxtasha10xx His reps do it cuz their copy righted to him and after the Warner Brother drama he keeps his music his own as often as possible. That's why he changed his named to a symbol (and was pictured with Slave on his cheeck) they tried to own him so he reclaimed everything he could. And I can't say I blame him even if the many Prince lovers (such as myself) suffer due to it!
