"I only want to see you laughing in the Purple Rain!"

This is a really stupid song.

Yes, there IS such a thing as purple rain--if it rains next to a purple light. But who regularly experiences it? What does referring to it even mean?

And "purple" is a really awkward word to sing.

Doesn’t the British group America have a song that mentions purple rain?

They were first.

song lyrics can be completely aesthetic - they don't have to be narrative

We’re not talking about an explosion at a Fargo grape soda facility. Prince is addressing his own reign, within the confines of his relationship with Babylonia, symbolically. Shees.
