I think The Arms Of Orion would have worked better if Sheena Easton's vocals had been replaced with Joan Jett's. Sheena's softie vocals just don't cut it on such a dark, almost disturbing song like TAOO.

Purple Rain wins by a long shot. Not sure about the reality of purple rain, however. I remember my science teacher telling me at the time that if you really were stood in purple rain, your skin would go brown as a reaction.

Purple rain, I think that The Arms of Orion is sinister. If you play it backwards it is actually really "The charms of a lion" ~shudder~

Well I agree with you on the vocals for AOO. That song would have been much better as a rock jam nod

I love them both for different reasons. However, PR still reigns.
