Here is a rare picture of Prince with a young fan, pre Purple Rain release. I was deeply moved when I read the letter:

Purple Rain was to me at 16 like Star Wars was to me at 9!

And Purple Rain was the best 16th birthday present that shares the same date with me.

WoW !!!!!!!! 30 years !!!!!! Can't believe it. God it makes me feel old !!!!!

I was working in Blackpool as a waitress in a small hotel at the time. It was my day off and as it was a bit dull and grey (nothing new there then!). I walked to the other side of the promenade to see what was on at the pics. It was a small place as I remember and there were about three films showing of which one was Purple Rain. As I'd heard some of the tracks on the radio for a couple of weeks, I bought a ticket, plonked myself in the small screening theatre like surroundings, and I was blown away !!!!!!!!! After that, went out and bought the 'cassette' soundtrack as I only had a boombox in my small room and played it to death !!!!!!!! Happy days xx Still a big fan. Thanks Prince for some amazing times, good memories, funky music and good friends xxx

I'm wondering since the concept of celebrating birthdays goes against his belief system, maybe celebrating an anniversary isn't really high on the priority list. So maybe it's coming just not coinciding with a specific celebratory date.

When 'purple rain' shows on tv, I'm surrounded by popcorn nostalgia and luv for the Prince R Nelson.

Thank you very much for this. biggrin

Walking alone in the dark, I see nothing u see
I can be in a park, or flying in the…in the deep sea
I wish u’d hold my hand; then everything could b
There’s nothing strange, we’re not deranged
We only want everyday 2 b a Cosmic Day
