Purple Rain intro

In live concerts we have seen Prince Implement different arrangements over the years for purple rain, which intro do you prefer?

1. Guitar/Chords intro or,
2. Piano

I prefer piano, I think it give it a nice mellow start then we await Prince’s aesome guitar solo.

What do you think?

Piano

I like father's song too.

Prince is a much better piano player than we give him credit for. It's always guitar guitar guitar, becuase I guess it's a phalic symbol.

But if we can just view the piano as a big vaginal instrument, it probably would become more interesting.
eek
