doesn't have anything to do with the age I think.. I was 2 years old when i picked 'the love symbol' LP out of my dad's huge LP collection.. I didn't pick out no stevie or rick james or anything else from those 15.000 LPs.. it was prince.. my parents tell me that I took out the 1st LP, with side A on top which had sexy MF and my name is prince.. and wanted to play it but didn't know how.. so i took the needle and started scratching all over the vinyl.. when my dad noticed it he kinda freaked out.. but damn, i wanted to play some prince :p i became a hardcore fan in 1999 I think, when i was 8 years old.. that's when i got to see purple rain..

what isn't dated. The 80's was the time they were experimenting with videos, so it's not going to be top quality, but I loved it,

JesusFreak said:

Ummm, the video WAS made in 84/85. It would be "dated" when compared to 2day's standards.

You gotta love When Doves Cry just for Prince and this tub if nothing else No one else woulda did that

I've known this video since the 80's when I was a baby and it didn't scare me or make me think freaky, it was just what it was to me, art. I liked the different scenes though I didn't like the "fighting" and didn't understand why birds were flying around inside. And I loved all the reflection stuff though I would wonder what happened to the people when they were "hiding" and laughed when both Prince's became one when spinning around, it was fun for a 4 year old to watch!!! Gosh!

Right.

PR is one of my least faves from him and i consider it extremely overrated.

Almost all his entire back catalogue is better. This applies to most the popular ones. However, When Doves is like Billie Jean, no matter how popular or old it gets....its just perfection.

u are crazy, in the chart for best song of the 80's, When Doves Cry is at #2.

It's just incredible

PurpleDiamond2009 said:

LoL ... WoW ... Someone actually didn't like the CLASSIC "When Doves Cry", that's cool. I hear/read about that all the time. I always thought the video was odd until the scene with The Kid and Apples, as you call her. I wasn't into P's music until I was 28 so that was all over my head back then. He was just a long haired faggot (in my eyes) ... LoL

... quotin' Morris from Purple Rain (btw) ... LoL

^^ I was about to say lol

And no it's not cool to not like "When Doves Cry", we roast folks who hate it. Like I'll roast anyone who hates "Billie Jean".

Timmy84 said:

it's just unbelievable

PurpleDiamond2009 said:

Don't worry LOL. I presume your young. Personally Iam sick of the song as played it alot as a kid, but I still think its a cool song though. The intro I feel is one of the best I've heard in a pop song. I do think the song is too long though.

sugartuff said:

That's only because whenever people talk about MJ, that's about the only song they play. And he had more hits. I'll forever love "Billie Jean".
