By the way SynthiaRose you never revealed what song the words purple rain have been used before Prince used. What's the song? Who's the artist?

Several have mentioned it above. "Ventura Highway" by America.
The lyrics go "Wishin' on a falling star /Waitin' for the early train/
Sorry boy, but I've been hit by purple rain."

Thank you, finally an orger who answers your question straight up with no bullshit. I have kinda heard of the group, not familiar with song, but you learn something everyday.
