question:Did Prince do the Score for Purple Rain too? Purple Rain is on the USA channel tonight. I was wondering if he wrote the score for the movie as well, and if it's available somehow. That music in the scene when Apollonia gave him her anclet was nice. Does anyone know? We all want a big hit again because
we want to relive the Hysteria & Pandemonium we experienced when Purple Rain was Hot. Actually, he doesn't care if it happens again or not. | |

But that means Michel contributed to the score, right? Isn't the score what Prince won the Oscar for??  Father's Song is Princes, no? & it would be considered part of the score, right?    I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it | |

By the way, I went to the link - it's AMAZING how cheesy it sounds on it's own, yet it's perfect for the movie... which is cheesy also I guess  I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it | |

There are two categories currently at the 'Oscars' - for music: 'Music - Original Scoring' and 'Music - Original Song' 'Music - Original Scoring' The Academy Award that Prince won in 1984 (57th Academy Awards) was for Original Song Score which fell within this category. This was not the 'standard' title usually awarded. That year, Prince's nomination competed with Jeff Moss ("The Muppets Take Manhattan") and Kris Kristofferson ("Songwriter"). The same year, the more usual and separate Original Score award was given to Maurice Jarre for his work on 'A Passage To India' within the category. (I believe that this is the award that Michel Columbier would have received if his scoring work within the film had received a nomination - which it didn't). Often, then, just one award is given in this category. In recent years (the '90s), awards have been given separately within this category for 'Original Dramatic Score' and 'Original Musical or Comedy Score'. In other years, the Academy has styled the category with an award of "Original Song Score and Its Adaptation or Adaptation Score", for example. There have also been other award titles over the years that reflect the type of scoring and material source in songs of the era. Prince appears to be the last artist to have received the award within this category with this specific title, the only other previous recipients being The Beatles for the film, 'Let It be' in 1970. 'Music - Original Song' In the separate 'Music - Original Song' category, awards are given for one 'Original Song' - as distinct from a body of work covered by 'Original Song Score' in the other category. At the 57th Academy Awards in 1984, Stevie Wonder's "I Just Called To Say I Love You" (from the film, 'The Woman In Red') won this award. .

That much is for sure. Nice info - absolutely langbelievableu! | |
