Even if you were a metal head like me back in the 80’s, there were three albums every rocker secretly had, but refused to tell anyone. They were Purple Rain by Prince, Thriller by Michael Jackson, and Rio by Duran Duran because of bassist John Taylor. If you got caught with it in your room, you blamed your brother or sister, even if you were an only child. Prince’s fingers metaphorically made love to those six strings and they responded to his touch. Definitely a world wide loss. RIP Purple music master.

"I am jealous of you, back in the day!" Back in the day, Prince challenged us. He was hyper-sexual and androgynous in the early days of MTV; people were a little shocked by him. But, as Amber says, "He is everything." He's such a remarkable, captivating artist; you just can't take your eyes off of him. We just couldn't get enough of it! Fun historical note: MTV originally had no intention of playing Black music; it was envisioned as a channel for rock kids, who were overwhelmingly white. But two artists made it impossible for MTV to ignore Black American music: Michael Jackson and Prince.

I went to a Prince concert... the man was a perfectionist. The stage was in the middle of the venue and he played in the round. There was no backstage. He rose up on a platform from under the stage. He played to every side facing the audience. There was not a flub, a missed note, a missung lyric... The audio was perfection... no distortion or mic squeals. You could have recorded that concert from beginning to end and put it on TV with no editing or post production. It was brilliant.

I'd like to point out that Prince recorded this in an EVENING. The director of PURPLE RAIN wanted some music for a downtrodden part of the movie, Prince said no problem, and recorded this by himself at Sunset Sound. The guitars, keys, vocal overdubs, and drum programming are all him. The track is so basic he left out the bass because he decided the song worked without it.

I was a freshman in high school when Purple Rain came out, and watching the world lite up in Purple was an unforgettable time. The first time I ever saw Prince perform live was in the mid-90s in San Jose, California; he jammed on stage that night with Carlos Santana and in this amphitheater, and let me tell you, THEY BOUGHT DOWN THE HOUSE THAT NIGHT!!! Back in my hometown of Columbus, Ohio, I saw him several more times, and in one of the afterparties, he walked right past me and talked about SWAG!

Yes, you need to listen to the "whole" song. Several of his songs have musical denouements that last for well over a minute, but even the radio stations now (and back then as well) choose to cut the song after he stops singing.

IMO, better to hear Let's Go Crazy for the first time in the context of the scene in the film. It's literally the turning point of the whole story. And the whole set-up with Morris Day leading into it makes the song its self hit hella hard. The build-up is like foreplay for the climax of Let's Go Crazy

I can't remember my life without great music, even when I was in a high chair. My parents bought me a clock radio when I started Primary School. I'd listen to the radio almost every night before falling asleep. It's hard wired into me, everything from Classical Composers to pop to electric to rock to metal, thrash and everything in-between. I love watching your generation love it too. Thanks again guys, Cheers.

I love you two jamming to songs. This song was the biggest hit of 1984. Back then - TV had censorship and music executives thought this tune was too sexual. That also includes radio censorship where DJ's had to play this suggestive song. Prince pushed the boundaries, but didn't go too far because of the times. His "Live" shows were another story. He was a genius at writing songs.

I was already a fan from his earlier work, but Purple Rain was a masterpiece. I LIVED for Prince! He possessed such incredible charisma, magnetism, coolness, beauty, and otherworldly musical prowess that it was mesmerizing to watch him. I was like your mom and had tons of Prince posters on my wall. A friend and I used to spend HOURS in the car listening to Prince music. I am still heartbroken over his death and cannot listen to the song Purple Rain (or Sometimes it Snows in April) without crying.
