So, "the end of the world", "judgement day", "the bible".


None of those words are used in the song.


It's all in your simple imagination.


Just because Prince wrote about the "sky was all purple" on 1999 doesn't mean he was talking about "judgement day" on Purple rain.


"I only wanted to see you bathing on/in Judgement Day"?

lol





Are you wilfully stupid? The last quote about it pertaining to the end of the world was by Prince himself. Go and tell him that he's wrong.
lol

Purple Rain obviously has nothing to do with "Judgement Day".


You ran with your own illusions.




When there’s blood in the sky - red and blue = purple.. purple rain pertains to the end of the world and being with the one you love and letting your faith/god"guide you through the purple rain...quote by Prince himself. SNIP


Do you think you come across as more intelligent, mature or reasonable when you call me "Dumbo"?


Your name calling and your red + blue = purple "explanation" are testimony of a simplistic and immature mind. Kind of like a child that doesn't understand that he shouldn't take everything literally. That life goes much deeper than his own limited perception of it. That in other words, hasn't matured enough yet to think properly and not let his emotions get in the way.





I can't be the only one who thinks you talk a load of convoluted gobbledygook??

I never meant to cause you any sorrow
I never meant to cause you any pain
I only wanted to one time to see you laughing
I only wanted to see you
Laughing in the purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted to see you
Bathing in the purple rain

I never wanted to be your weekend lover
I only wanted to be some kind of friend
Baby, I could never steal you from another
It's such a shame our friendship had to end

Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted to see you
Underneath the purple rain

Honey, I know, I know
I know times are changing
It's time we all reach out
For something new, that means you too

You say you want a leader
But you can't seem to make up your mind
I think you better close it
And let me guide you to the purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
If you know what I'm singing about up here
C'mon, raise your hand

Purple rain, purple rain
I only want to see you
Only want to see you
In the purple rain

A lot of people raise their hand without a clue what he's singing about.

Purple Rain is a ballad, sounds like a love song. But why does it have a religious gospel sound?

Don't you Love God?

The gospel sound might be a vibrational level that the music reaches. One time, while dreaming, i found myself in a choir on the inner planes and Prince was leading it. Seem like there were about 30 souls there. Feel like souls stop by and join when they travel on the inner planes and leave when they desire or need to wake up in the morning.

...music is a transport and when the vibe goes high, souls travel to a higher dimension and realize multidimesionality... sounds like the gospel sound is going to a higher dimension. sound/music and light are waves for traveling to the higher dimensions.

i remember one time in LA/Holliewood during the ONA tour that Purple Rain one evening went to a truly gospel feel. being there in real time and feeling it was absolutely amazing. now, since there really isn't time...one can re-member that feeling and experience by listening to the ONA Live album that Prince had released.

that nrg is shifting up. sing up!

a love song in what way, more like a song of regret and forgiveness

.

from beginning 2 end GOD sounds like a religious song

somehow I've always tied this song 2 Computer Blue & Temptation

sometimes it feels 2 me like a Love Song from God to His Children. God wants us to realize that this life is a Celebration each and every day. somehow, at times, folks go to church on the weekend, feel that they satisfied the Creator and then go on with their disharmonic life. that's okay. it just is. times are changing - we are in a huge time of transformation. in the toltec way, the new Sun came 11 January 1992. what is this new Sun? it is said to be the 6th Sun that Earth has had so far.

back to the ? of a Love Song. i really do feel it is a song from God. i believe that music transforms along this timeline of life experiences. so, what could have been a personal love song for a soul encased in a human body - the transforming interpretation could be that of God singing a Love Song. it then becomes what is one's/ones' favorite Channel.
