I never knew it was his. I've always listened to the mariah dru hill version and i put it on repeat. I was pregnant from my second daughter when this classic was in the theaters and my all time favorite from him is lets get crazy especially the solo at the end, it electrifies me.
It was really written for Apolonia the actress she was close to Prince. I just heard her talking about it on Rock the Bells Xm radio with Roxanne Shante.
@@farrellcityking1 Same - I've always believed it was NOT acting - it's like he went into another orbit - i think offscreen he truly thought of apollonia as "his." - there was some "beef" between him & morris offscreen - and it came out in this scene
i know it makes me cry to know hes not on this earth. i cried hard when he died. music is how ive gotten through life and his was an inimitable talent. so gifted
@@dianette19 Wherever I moved in the world, or whatever was going on in life, I always had a new Prince album to look forward to... There's a Prince-shaped hole in the world.
When Prince died, a part of my youth died along with him. I was a senior in high school when Purple Rain came out. I loved it then, I love it still . . .
There was another version years ago, it might’ve been posted by someone from France but, whatever the case may be, that one had a bunch of views. So…”Baby baby baby baby I want you…woo…yes I do-wa…” Resistance was futile at that point. Panties were a messy mess. Morris got Kung Fu-ed. Prince grew wings when he did this one. I was blown away when I first heard it. Stunned. It was a clear indication that he was The One. ☔️✝️💜🟣♈️
@MegaDg3, I was 28 once, Asians don’t raisin. His music transformed my 🟣🟣🟣 life. Here is a jem of a jam you should listen 2 at least twice. It’s called, ‘Crucial,’ ua-cam.com/video/pOdjRm9Cq_A/v-deo.htmlsi=gAzpNEcGZI-DA-hM
I was 8 years old when I first seen this movie. And this scene right here was the first time I realized I loved music. This was the spark. RIP to the greatest of alltime!
The beautiful ones hurt you every time. F-- I can relate to that line. What a great song. Written purely from the soul. I think it's one of Prince's best tunes.
I remember going to see the movies back in the 80s and back then you could stay and watch the movie over and over again and they didn't put you out. The movie theater was pack like it was a Prince concert. I miss you so much Prince R.I.P ❤ 2023
Omg The Beautiful Ones in HD. Yesss the best performance of this song and one of the greatest songs created Happy 65th Birthday Sweet Prince Rest with the angels💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
@@tracyb374 I remember the electric magic of experiencing Prince and the Revolution during the amazing Purple Rain Tour in 1984 after the movie came out!! Wow!! 💜💜💜🔥💜💜💜❤️❤️❤️ I’m praying to be able to afford to go to Paisley Park one blessed day!! I’m so sad Prince passed away 🙏💔❤️💜💜💜🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🥲🥲💜💜💜💜💜❤️❤️❤️
@anitakos1375 💜💜💜💜 I hope you get to go to Paisley Park one day. Thought about it but I think I'd have a meltdown before the entrance. Idk if I could do it😢😢😢. Truly my life crashed for a bit after my Man was gone.. Would be insanely amazing, but rough stuff if anyone knows what I mean. Whew!!!
Prince made this the best confession song of all time. Not to mention, this is one of the best winning the romantic interest’s heart via song I have seen! Sorry Disney, but you can’t top this!
Gen X still out here flexing their music heat in December of 2024!!!❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥...No other Generation will top the music of our generation across ALLLLLL Genres!!!....EVER!!!👺👺👺
When he gets too do you want him or do you want me .....man bars infused with emotion on a different level. Insane he mixed the rnb with rock like this
This is one of the realest songs till this s day and it hits Even harder now I am 43. My dad played all of these beautiful songs when I was younger. Damn
The pure talent and genius of this man cannot be measured in human terms. He was a truly gifted human being. He was able to see and visualize things before they were even developed. Rest in peace His Purple Majesty 💜
This is the ultimate please do not leave me song of all time. By the end even if you are not breaking up you feel like you are. Those screams are so damn real at the end.
My favorite song Right now, I haven't listened to him like that for a while but saw the movie and this song made me remember how incredible, intense this man was
For those of you , that dont even know Who is Prince, dont think this song is The peak. For him is just a regular, usual day. easy like Breathing. Prince's talent is so much more, a trip is waiting for You... If you have the required time, he has the long ride. More than 40 years of live concerts, rehearseals, recordings , musical albums, videos, sound checks , films... And believe me, worth it. Prince music HAVE no Age. Healing power running...on it. A real Ladder to your best within. LONG LIVE Prince .
PURE GANGSTER!!!! THIS BALLAD IS ONE OF SO MANY THAT HIT LIKE A BOLT OF LIGHTNING!!!!!! ROGER NELSON, THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER!!!! STR8 BANGER!!!! DAMN NEAR 40 YEARS LATER!!!!! PROPZ GIVEN!!!!!
I will always LOVE PRINCE!! I feel the love in a spiritual way!! Thank you God for blessing us with Prince’s beautiful, amazing artist!! Depending on my mood, I can’t always watch this song cuz it hurts my soul about love 💔💔🥲💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🌹🌹💋💜💜
Absolutely spellbinding. The emotion, the intensity, one of his best all time. Thank you for this video! I once read this was his favorite on the album. I concur.
I love this beautiful man. Now & forever. His songs, his energy, and his symbolism of faith & sexuality are overwhelming. Still and forever 💙 in time!❤❤❤
Everyone forgets this monster of a song. It might be one of the best ballads ever written.
I never knew it was his. I've always listened to the mariah dru hill version and i put it on repeat. I was pregnant from my second daughter when this classic was in the theaters and my all time favorite from him is lets get crazy especially the solo at the end, it electrifies me.
Might be?
Dead on balls accurate. We sure do miss Prince.
that part!
This ballad is up there too but I got to go with "Adore"; the extended version.
You can’t do this song without the “ do you want him, or do you want me, cause I want you “ pointing ❤❤
Literally
Before I saw the music video I always did that in the mirror 😂
I just did it. Always do
Exactly 🎯🎯 Gotta love Prince...so so sexy!!❤
hahahha so true
When Purple Rain came out in the theaters, my friend and I, saw it 4 times in the first week. We were hooked for life. Long live Prince!
The song of this movie gives more kick than any drug.
In 84 he had the #1 movie, album and song at the same time. He owned it.
me & my twin sister sat in theater & saw every showing that day...we saw it 5 or 6 times lol
I remember at 8 asking my mom is that mike Jackson. Prince is a legend
Mom loved Prince
Who is with me in 2024?
Every year forever 💜
Yessir
I know its acting but the look she had on her face is priceless
The look on Morris's face is too... Check him out...
Morris "OH Here We Go...
It was a work of art, the intensity of the scene, the camera zeroing in on her. Wow.
It was really written for Apolonia the actress she was close to Prince. I just heard her talking about it on Rock the Bells Xm radio with Roxanne Shante.
That wasn’t acting. Everything in this scene is real. I’ve always been convinced of it.
@@farrellcityking1 Same - I've always believed it was NOT acting - it's like he went into another orbit - i think offscreen he truly thought of apollonia as "his." - there was some "beef" between him & morris offscreen - and it came out in this scene
There will never be another. Forget it. This man’s talent is beyond comprehension.
i know it makes me cry to know hes not on this earth. i cried hard when he died. music is how ive gotten through life and his was an inimitable talent. so gifted
Agreed.
@@dianette19 Wherever I moved in the world, or whatever was going on in life, I always had a new Prince album to look forward to...
There's a Prince-shaped hole in the world.
The only man that can rock mascara eyeliner and high heel boots and still take your woman❤❤❤❤
OMG what an incredible guy.
Nobody could deliver a ballad like this man!!!!
You are right!
He made her cry. I think it's safe to say she went home with him!
Facts!!!
CAP...!!!!!
I'm thinking this is my favorite song of his. It's perfection.
Its so raw❤️🔥
Absolutely my favorite too 🥺 since the first time I heard it 💫
Same, it's his most authentically raw/unfiltered output ever!
It’s definitely my favorite ❤
The Beautiful Ones is my favorite song. Purple Rain is a classic. Prince was a musical genius.
Never heard so much passion or pain in a song.
It's raw
Except James Brown...he was the blueprint for both Prince & MJ.
Man it brings uncountable tears down my eyes like WTF😅 The passion in his music is unmatched!!!!!
Sadly, the 80s and 90s are gone forever. Glad I was there to witness greatness on all levels.
Yesss
Me too...
💯💯💯🫡🫡🫡🙏🙏🙏SO THANKFUL & BLESSED!!!!
Prince was like the 8th Wonder of the World, this song is a Masterpiece. One of many he's written.❤
YESSS,I agree.This song hits very well.And the look on Apollonia,s face proved every bit of it.❤❤😮😊.
When Prince died, a part of my youth died along with him. I was a senior in high school when Purple Rain came out. I loved it then, I love it still . . .
I was a senior in high school as well also when this came out. Even went out and purchased a motorcycle because of him riding one in the movie.
Definitely missed. But "Deep dark drugs?...who knew?" Took hisself
Prince didn't want part of you to die......he wanted you to live.
@@mandelpettaway4445 you should probably grow up.
39 years later....still stings my Heart 😢
This man was an entertainer from a different astral plane.
And haven't seen a musical angel since.
this right here.
How is it humanly possible that this video only has 3600 views? This is why we’re not allowed to have nice things.
😢😢😢😂😂😂 have to emotional the laugh and cry because it's true
😂😂😂😂😂😂
You are so right.
Because it’s not on the official Prince channel. And it wasn’t taken down
There was another version years ago, it might’ve been posted by someone from France but, whatever the case may be, that one had a bunch of views. So…”Baby baby baby baby I want you…woo…yes I do-wa…”
Resistance was futile at that point. Panties were a messy mess. Morris got Kung Fu-ed. Prince grew wings when he did this one. I was blown away when I first heard it. Stunned. It was a clear indication that he was The One. ☔️✝️💜🟣♈️
I’m 28 & I really just listened to this song for the first time today. Played it 5 times in a row
It is good to hear a young lady like yourself, appreciating great music from my generation .
Welcome to the club. So many more songs to discover. Start at 1 For You lots of great songs and work your way through.
👏👏👏 You just listened to a legend at his best
@MegaDg3, I was 28 once, Asians don’t raisin.

This and..ones like Do Me Baby🥵😂😂
Only Prince can break them down in tears like that 😊❤️
Making his Girlfriend cry.
The look on Morris Day's face? PRICELESS!
@@AnthonyArguienhe knew that he was screwed she was in love ❤
Apollonia went through EVERY emotion and an orgasm in 5 minutes
I was 8 years old when I first seen this movie. And this scene right here was the first time I realized I loved music. This was the spark. RIP to the greatest of alltime!
I totally agree ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Me too in 1984💜
8? I hope you covered your eyes a few times 🫣. A classic.
One of the most soul-crushing power ballads I’ve ever heard. How this song never caught any traction is beyond me. Prince was a true artistic genius.
Completely agree
Absolutely ❤
No traction? I heard it on the radio all the time when I was a kid.
“You were so hard to find.” We’ve all felt that.
The beautiful ones hurt you every time. F-- I can relate to that line. What a great song. Written purely from the soul. I think it's one of Prince's best tunes.
I took a break from studying, had to see this and have a mini concert at 1am....😆
When he started screaming in the song I just felt all that.
Oh yes. We have all been there. The raw pain of unrequited love( in my case) how many I loved that didn't love me. He captures this perfectly
The passion in his voice when he says. Do you want him. Or do you want me? Because I want you.❤
40 years later....timeless classic
This song is powerful!
Yes, uncomfortably so st times🎉
APOLLINA IS ABSOLUTELY BREATHTAKING!!!!😍😍😍
Couldn’t be more correct
The 80's were worth being born on this Earth!
Couldn’t agree more
👍
Facts 80's baby here from Philadelphia 😊
Best comment
No one will ever fill his shoes as a singer . He made my life so much better by helping us get thru life back them.❤
He’s helping me get through life today!!
Egg fuggin zackley!
Yes💜
This man was a triple threat! He could sing, dance and play a variety of instruments! 💜
Don't forget he wrote his own stuff, as well as writing for other artists.
Didn't he play like 27 different instruments? The man was not only a genius, he wasn't just confident. He was convinced!
@@julie.1081yep 27!
Agreed he's Legendary
He killed THIS SONG💯🩷❤️💣💣✅✅
Like fr
Prince is from a different & better world.
this is the best figure pointing ever in human history
😂😂😂
I'm crying over here! I would have to agree 🤣🤣🤣
Still listening in 2024! This one was one of the best!
So very sad he's gone! He was a genius! 💜
This is one of the best songs ever made.
For sure🎉
The beautiful ones is the best ballad from day one of rock n roll until the end of time
The most real performance of all time.
Of
All
Time!
Can't believe this didn't make his top hits album
I remember going to see the movies back in the 80s and back then you could stay and watch the movie over and over again and they didn't put you out. The movie theater was pack like it was a Prince concert. I miss you so much Prince R.I.P ❤ 2023
This man was something else. God rest him. An artist for sure . 💜
he came his music will last so we say he came we seen and heard him our lives felt good when we remember this great classic
Omg The Beautiful Ones in HD. Yesss the best performance of this song and one of the greatest songs created Happy 65th Birthday Sweet Prince Rest with the angels💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

💜💜💜💜 Saw Purple Rain in the theater in 84, Had the VHS as soon as it came out and the DVD still today😂 Only Prince lovers😉

Should have bought it on bluray it sounds and looks a Lot better !!! ;)
Arguably... the Most PRINCE Song of All-Time...
I think it’s annastesia ..
My favorite Prince ballad.
❤One of the most beautiful movie scenes of all time
this is the best love song ever written. period.
Prince made this the best confession song of all time. Not to mention, this is one of the best winning the romantic interest’s heart via song I have seen! Sorry Disney, but you can’t top this!
Easily the best song on the album that isn’t a single
You could be right...BUT "Darling Nikki" is a close second😂😂
@@discobee7097 I love that one too, I love all of the songs
In my opinion this is the best version and peak years of prince. Everything came together
"DON'T MAKE ME WASTE MY TIME... DON'T MAKE ME LOSE MY MIND...DO YOU WANT HIM??? DO YOU WANT ME??? CAUSE I WANT YOU!!!"
This is the scene from purple rain that I felt so much he could make any man or woman love him.
This was my favorite part of the movie. I kept repeating it.
Gen X still out here flexing their music heat in December of 2024!!!❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥...No other Generation will top the music of our generation across ALLLLLL Genres!!!....EVER!!!👺👺👺
I agree ❤
Apollonia's eyes during the song 🌹🌹🌹🌹
Exactly 💯
When he gets too do you want him or do you want me .....man bars infused with emotion on a different level. Insane he mixed the rnb with rock like this
Yessssssss❤
This is one of the realest songs till this s day and it hits Even harder now I am 43. My dad played all of these beautiful songs when I was younger. Damn
FACTS...as TRUE as LIFE💯 and the fact tht it's real and true makes you not want to even take the beautiful ones seriously to guard your heart.
one of the best performances in music EVER
The pure talent and genius of this man cannot be measured in human terms. He was a truly gifted human being. He was able to see and visualize things before they were even developed. Rest in peace His Purple Majesty 💜
The only person left that can hold a candle to Prince is Stevie Wonder.
One of his most beautiful songs of all♥️♥️♥️
My favorite song of Prince’s. This whole performance was outstanding.
I cried like a baby when this man past cause I knew we didn't have another in the line up!!!
So true…the beautiful ones do hurt you every time.
My goodness the way she is looking at him! Total love in her eyes! I remember when men and women were like this with each other.
We still are
@@Rontlc3317 Yeah i guess, but we are much different now compared to 1984 when it comes to interaction with one another.
This is the ultimate please do not leave me song of all time. By the end even if you are not breaking up you feel like you are. Those screams are so damn real at the end.
Okay, I’ll watch Purple Rain again.
I feel like it's necessary. 40 year anniversary
No one can perform this song like Prince!! I don’t care how good they sound doing it. Some songs are forever stamped only for that artist.
FACTS!
Prince is a straight up genius and 😢he is truly missed
Yep
My favorite song Right now, I haven't listened to him like that for a while but saw the movie and this song made me remember how incredible, intense this man was
Such a beautiful performance....🙏💜🥰
His catalogue is filled with songs that pull your heart strings! Man! Literal chills.💜
"So what's it gonna be baby" ask Morris...he saw the river flowing from her eyes 😂
Cant stop watching this. Its pure magical! Prince is the greatest of all time!!!
one of the best scenes in the movie. Love Love Love this song and how he preformed it!
After hearing this song, she went from a smirk on her face to tears streaming down her face ... She knew then he was serious. 💖💖💖
Not on this scene, watch again
The entire album is mind blowing!
Yknow
*My first boyfriend sang this to me and I chose him instead of the high school quaterback. He was a nerd.*💜
Prince - priceless
His music - even more priceless
Apollonia's aesthetics - when lovely and pretty was just that - without filters - wonderful!
The most beautiful man sings the best ballad ever written 2 the most beautiful girl in the world.....Epic
This scene laid it all out on the floor. Painted the perfect picture.
For those of you , that dont even know Who is Prince, dont think this song is The peak. For him is just a regular, usual day. easy like Breathing. Prince's talent is so much more, a trip is waiting for You... If you have the required time, he has the long ride.

My favorite artist of all time!!!!!!!
Absolutely spellbinding. The emotion, the intensity, one of his best all time. Thank you for this video! I once read this was his favorite on the album. I concur.
I really miss this man and his talent! Imagine what the music industry would be like with Price still here
3:29 Morris Day suffered one of the biggest C-blocks of all time!!!!! Nothing could be done about that!!!! 😁😁
The synthesizer and keyboards crazy !!!
Genius
I love this song so much ❤ need to listen to it every day lately 😅
Morris Day's expression in the beginning. He knew that Prince would get her with this song.
Masterpiece 💜
Arguably the greatest, yet underrated balled ever written from Prince! The Purple Rain album soundtrack was a monster album!
This gives me chills and makes me cry 💜😢💜
Prince took the musical art of self expression to another level 🎭 🎶 📊📈💥
Love how the tension builds....💜
Apollonia was Gorgeous 😍
If you can't feel the emotion in this song, you're dead!
👍😄
A pure talent,like all of his music written with such empathy,love,truth and heart felt lyrics you can hear the emotion in everything he wrote
Oh mg,his voice towards the last part of this song.I think my heart almost stops beating💜💙
I love this beautiful man. Now & forever. His songs, his energy, and his symbolism of faith & sexuality are overwhelming. Still and forever 💙 in time!❤❤❤
