just flicking through and saw the pg version on vh1...

1. if wendy and lisa wrote the song that would be purple rain...how did everybody in the band know what to play without rehearsing it? and if wendy and lisa kept wrting songs the Kid was blowing off..how'd Wendy know which one to play?

2. if the Kid had 2 kick ass songs like IWD4U and BIAS in his repertoire, why didn't he play them before?



1. The band knew, because they used to practice it without Prince. He was the only one that had to learn it.

2. The kid probably had Jughead up his sleeve too, doesn't mean it doesn't exist before you hear it in the film.

Besides, IWD4U and BIAS are the weakest tracks from the album. I'd keep them tucked away antil everyone was on my side too.

the song on the demo tape was instrumental and even the piano solo the kid played sound really different..tempo wise...and what about the chorus?


It should sound really different... the Kid did his own thing with it, as did the rest of the members in the band. They improvised. And the chorus is really simple. The Kid sang it, and the others chimed in. The Kid probably wrote the words that day -- I think Wendy & Lisa's tape only said "slow song" (they didn't have any words to it).

yeah, that would probably be a sign it's not gonna work out if a guy is showing he digs me by handing over his hoop earing for me to put in my ear. Ewww.


Honey, in the 80's it was considered the coolest, most romantic gesture since Paul Henreid lit two cigarettes and handed one to Bette Davis in Now Voyager. It was metrosexual before David Beckham.

they learned a whole 8 minute fleshed out song without him???

2. The kid probably had Jughead up his sleeve too, doesn't mean it doesn't exist before you hear it in the film.

coulda..but doubtful

Besides, IWD4U and BIAS are the weakest tracks from the album. I'd keep them tucked away antil everyone was on my side too.

A. people always do dumb shit like that..you know hit the mass murderer on the head with a stick and instead of cutting his head off while he knocked out..they walk over and look at them (bending over mind you)..then wonder why they get killed

B when they do cut their fucking head off (like JLC in H20...they come up with some lame twist that it wasn't really him..it was the paramedic who MM just happened to switch clothes with in the ambulance)

C. How many people have to get killed at a camp before you decide not to be a counselor there? i mean c'mon...78 counselors killed at Camp Crystal Lake..and u STILL go? u deserve to get your balls stuck in your mouth

i got a good one. why did apollonia just give him the thing on her boot?

you know what? every time i watch the movie and it comes to that one part where apples gives the kid the cloud geetar and he gives her his earring i think, "ewww...dont'cha have like any jewelry cleaner or sumfin? your piercing could be infected, for all she knows..."


2 me that whole scene sucks. she shoulda gave him this look like "gee thanks i give u an expensive guitar and u give me a dirty ass earring".

Damn right. That was a cool thing to do in the 80s, and not many dudes wore earrings back then either.

As Mad Magazine would say, it's rude to talk about holes in the script!

The one question I have is the real Purple Rain film. Do you think we will ever see it meaning the deleted scenes. For example there was a scene where Prince goes over to the Warehouse where Apollonia is performing and swings on the drummer from the TIME. The is another scene where Morris Day and Apollonia are running on the lawn of Prince's house.

That may answer alot of questions ?? Hmmm...maybe not

I wish they would add the deleted scenes that would be great!! But we'll probably never see them, or if so not for a long ass time!
