Video: Angelina Jolie covered "Purple Rain" In the 6th grade

Video: A 6th Grade Angelina Jolie Covers Prince’s “Purple Rain”

Not sure if we are allowed to post videos of people covering Prince's songs, so I just provided the link above from funkenberry's site.

It really is god awful. Wonder how she would sound covering it now.....

...I'm not really sure what's supposed to be so shocking or embarrassing about this?

Honestly, let's be brutally honest here - most children can't sing for shit. You know this, I know this. Which is why when one who can, comes along, adults go apeshit and make a big fuss over them (see Michael Jackson as a child).

And to be even more honest - that doesn't change in adulthood. If you think about it, the vast majority of adults aren't particularly musically-inclined; can't sing worth a damn, and couldn't play an instrument if their lives depended on it. Which is why, again, when the general public sees those who can a lot of 'ooh' and 'ahh' ensues along with pedestal-building.

Which is why a lot of the ones who are gifted in that sense, have superiority complexes and think their poo doesn't stink, because they know they can do something that isn't really common, and then random jackasses kiss their asses because of it and give them an exaggerated sense of themselves and their own importance.

Plus she's adorable in the clip and whatever talents she lacks in musical ability she makes up for in spades in acting ability and has never tried to record music for profit or present herself as a musician. Slagging her off for this makes about as much sense as being surprised and making fun when a gym school teacher can't perform your appendectomy.

^^ Sheesh, who said it was embarrassing or shocking?

The whole thing was hilarious, none of those kids could sing and to me it seems like they know that they can't sing and they're just enjoying it! Cute little Prince fan inside her awwww

I thought she worshipped Madonna though lol ??

...You can't read tone and nuance, can you? It's pretty obvious that that's the direction this thread was going in up until my post, as well as the actual post on the Fuckingberry site.

I hate that Fuckingberry fucker anyway - this is the same jackass who tried to start a rumor that David Bowie was dying or something. I hope his dick falls off.

Yep.

I'm not gonna argue with you, kiddo. If you wanna take out your issues on someone online you'll have to find some fool dumb enough to humor you. I said what I had to say and I'm done here.

Might wanna have a doc take a look at you about that laugh though - people might think you're crazy.

Have a good one. cool

I wasn't picking on you or anything, I'm just simply saying that people weren't being as "cruel" to this clip of young girl singing Purple Rain, as you described. lol Like, chill...
