Aw..you're after my heart there. You just watched Purple Rain didn't you? I think that everytime I watch it. That version always brings a tear to my eye it's so beautiful.

Any one have an answer to this question?

Of course!! Now I remember err You mean 'Fathers Song' which is basically the instrumental section of Computer Blue. It's composed by Prince's Dad John L Nelson.

Is it available anywhere in it entirety? Perhaps we'll get something on the re-issue of Purple Rain CD.

Didn't I hear that was coming out soon? hmmm

There is a fake version of Fathers Song floating around. There seems to be no full Prince version available, though.

If you get your hands on the Purple rain sheet music, fathers song is in there... I learnt how to play it... its hard cos prince is a psycho genius... so you would have to probably get a really good musician to help you interperate it...

Its my fav piece of music ever dancing jig

There are a few boots that have "Father's Song" lifted directly from the movie. You can even hear Prince banging into the room at the very beginning. I love to listen to it.

I found a live version too the other day. At the end it really sounds like Prince when he tells the crowd "Thank You", but I'm not 100% for sure.

Man, I thought I was the only one. The piano version of purple rain is fantastic as well as the computer blue piano version but I often wish that I could get my hands on it. If you get it, please let us know.

much appreciate it,
