PRINCE. Purple Rain and VH1 la

I watched Purple Rain on VH1 Latinamerica.
By the time he was per4ming COMPUTER BLUE.
The subtitles referred 2 the title as if it was a color.
AZUL COMPUTADORA. I thought the name meant a 'blues', like the style of music.
Because I thought hewas saying he's blue because he can't find his lovelife.
God,that confuses me a lot.
Anyone knows anything about the title?

That's a direct translation of the phrase "Computer Blue".

Does "blue" not also refer to sadness in Spanish?
"What kind of fuck ending is that?"

I saw Purple Rain on HBO and they actually had overdubbed the sound in Spanish instead of using subtitles (they did not change any of the actual songs though).

It has been a while, I am trying to think back, off hand no one sounded totally out of wack. I still have it recorded on DVR, I will watch it again this weekend
to refresh my memory.
