Who has not listened to Purple Rain in YEARS? I have not listened to Purple Rain in some.... 15 years. yet I am still a Prince fan. I wait for the new stuff. That is all I dig. The farthest I go back now is 3121, and that is beginnning to get old, but it's still pretty kinda sorta modern.
I hope he jams with todays music on the next album. I would love to see what he could do if he really tried to compete with todays artist. He does watch Fuse/MTV/VH1? Right? Well, you can't watch any of his videos on any of those sites. Anyway..... Who never listens to Purple Rain any more? We are all so full of here | |

This album is like a good movie that doesen't need that many listens or watchings in order to appreciate it. I've been a bit tired of it for years but that doesen't mean I don't like it.
Purple Rain seems to be the only album the music reporters and critics are familiar with when you read some of their stories and reviews: "The Purple Rain star... Pint-sized pop star who had a hit in the 80's with Purple Rain.... Prince who starred in Purple Rain..." Hello? | |

I probably want watch or listen to Purple Rain for a long time. Im kinda sick of it. I listen to his new albums and unreleased material more than anything he released in the 80s and 90s. | |

Try decades. The last time I listened to it as a whole was the night before "A.T.W.I.A.D" came out. Haven't pulled it out the crates since. | |

I regularly listen to some of the extended\alternate versions of some of the songs like Let's Go Crazy, Computer Blue,and I Would Die For You because I recently discovered them so they are fresh to me.When Doves Cry is just classic. I will always listen to that song. As far as the album, I just can't listen to it anymore. I just burned it out over the years. CALL ME A DREAMER 2! | |

It was the first Prince album I bought 10 years ago, and the only one I bothered to get until 3121, when my fanhood really took off. I played it to death for a while, put it away, and never took it out again. I never bothered copying it to my computer or mp3 player, so it doesn't come up on shuffle, either. | |

Why not immerse yourself in the new stuff? I've absolutely plundered Lotusflow3r myself, and got heaps out of it. So much to love! Take it - like Clarence said:

I listened to Purple Rain alot in the 1984-1987 period and I stopped listening to it. Occassionally I listen to a single track every now and then.
I find I go back to the album alot more over the last 2-3 years. | |

I listened to PR in the 80s. Then in 2007 I suddenly pulled it out again. For a few listens and dances. But I don't listen to it anymore. I love it but yeah, it's etched in memory. I'm so loving LF it's my new PR. "Free URself, B the best that U can B, 3rd Apartment from the Sun, nothing left to fear" Prince Rogers Nelson - Forever in my Life - | |

I listen to it all the time
I never listen 2 it the same though Sometimes I'll combine the Bsides sometimes I'll combine it with movie outtakes/protege like Possessed, God the Love theme, Fathers song, Sex Shooter, Modernaire, Jungle Love/the Bird sometimes I'll combine it with various songs from Ice Cream Castles, Apollonia 6, Sugar Walls, Sheila E. I tend to mix most of the albums up, never playing them the same way It always keeps them even more interesting. I can only really do that with the 1976-1989 music because that where most of the B sides outtakes and proteges come from. 1990's music and 2000 music I'll combine era music like 1Night Alone C-Note NEWS Musicology | |
