I just happened to win tickets to the Superbowl the year he performed, so I got to see him perform this song live while sitting in the pouring rain! By far the most epic moment of my life!
That is the best version. Lucky you, very memorable for you.
OMG ! Awesome
This MN born guy is hella jelly lol
Prince is a legend. he played 17 instruments,wrote all his own music as well as music for other artists, produced his own music...ultimate performer.🤍
Thanks for the info hope 😊
27 instruments! at a high level!
He played 27 instruments on his debut album.
Try 27 instruments…😊
@@stevenmonte7397 it is at least 28, because I looked over the list they have on that website and they didn't even include the harmonica on it which he's playing IN THE VIDEO for "Thieves In The Temple" - also Bob Dylan (known for his harmonica-playing) is from Minneapolis, and Prince would have grown up with that type of music on a lot of the radio there. Which is one reason why Joni Mitchell was his favorite artist growing up.
Prince was a GENIUS. A fantastic musician, maybe the best, Great singer incredible vocals incredible dancer, sensual mega star, he could made EVERYTHING. No one like him.
Stevie Wonder is the only one that can compete with Prince. Stevie and Prince are the two most prolific musicians ever. Stevie had a 5 album run in his early 20's that nobody can beat.
Prince was arguably THE most talented all around artist of his time, and i say that as a life long MJ fan. Definitely check out more!
Two of the three concerts I have attended were Prince and MJ. So very glad I had the opportunity.
@@daOrgRock Man, I envy you... I wish I could've attended either one or both of those guys' concerts... especially when they were at their zenith in the '80s, but I was a child then.
@@KtotheG Yes, I was so lucky to have an older brother that stood in line all night to get tickets. I was 14. My younger brother was 9 and unfortunatelyxx doesn’t recall much. I saw Prince in the mid 90s. Back when you could still get great seats without it costing a mortgage payment. 🙂
This is the original recording. This was played live for the film, and there's no studio version.
Yes, a few other songs also on the album also. Performed live, at First Ave...for the first time. Who else could do that?
Eric Clapton was asked "what's it like to be best guitar player ever " he responded I don't know, you'll have to ask Prince.
Yes, dude was one of the all time great guitarists. Pretty famous for it🤣
You have to do While My Guitar Gently Weeps with Prince. You will see why he is one of the best ever!
That is among my favorite Prince moments! At the tribute for fallen Beatle George Harrison. Tom Petty is singing. Prince smashed the guitar solo. I mean destroyed.
Oh man, Prince was so talented. He could play multiple instruments, I’m sorry no, mastered several instruments. You should do a deep dive in to his catalogue. 💜 his Super Bowl halftime is the greatest ever in my opinion.
Awesome! I'll Google the half time show set list, react to all the songs then do the show 😁, thank you 😁
@@infin8reactionsin case you don’t have time to look up the set or want some more detail… the set opens with a brief cover of Queen’s We Will Rock You then goes into Let’s Go Crazy (from Purple Rain), Baby I’m a Star (from Purple Rain), Proud Mary (cover CCR/Ike & Tina Turner song), All Along the Watchtower (cover of Bob Dylan/Jimi Hendricks song), The Best of You (cover of Foo Fighters song), and Purple Rain in the pouring rain. It is epic!!!
As someone that was actually there, it was a spiritual thing when the rain came down during “Purple Rain “.
@@infin8reactions Before this halftime show Prince gave a little " press conference " : 2007 SB Press Conference/Performance on YT. ;)
He performed this song at a Super Bowl halftime show in the rain!! He wanted to know if they could make it rain harder 😅. The video of him with Tom Petty and others playing “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” is amazing. Prince plays a banger guitar solo 🎸 💜👵🏼✌🏼
I saw this movie in the theatre when it first came out. I think I was 15 or 16 and this scene at the end blew my little mind. And he was still fairly young here. You should watch the tribute to George Harrison at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame where Prince joins the band for “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” and he steals the show. He was one of the greatest guitarists of all time. Honestly one of the greatest musicians of all time.
I get so excited when someone is just discovering Prince. He is one of the best guitarists of all time. What you saw there was just the tip of the iceberg. He wrote, played all the instruments, sang every note, and produced almost all of his songs by himself. His live performances are epic. I hope you’ll check out the live version of America, Purple Rain (there are many amazing versions. I think the one from the Purple Rain tour at Syracuse or the 1985 American Music Awards are the best), Motherless Child, Play That Funky Music/Hollywood Swinging/Fantastic Voyage… if you want to see his version of Nothing Compares 2 U, check out the one from the Glam Slam show (a duet with Rosie Gaines). To see what a great piano player he is, check out this piano medley from the Lovesexy tour in 1988. I could go on and on, but I’ll stop with those. Hope you’ll continue getting to know Prince. He is the best to have ever done it 💜💜💜
😂😂Prince played everything😅😅😅
God I love Prince. Probably one of the most talented musicians and songwriters we will ever get. If you can name an instrument, Prince can play it (to a high level I might add) or he can probably teach himself to play it within a matter of minutes. He was a musical genius and I mean that in every sense of the word. Music was who he was and it's such a joy to get to experience his art.
Prince IS the lead guitar of the world 💜
It's not that he's underrated as a guitarist (although he absolutely is), it's that so many people don't even realize he's a contender. They think the theatrics and the sexiness and the wicked voice, and even if they've seen the videos and the movie(s), they don't really connect him to the shredding and soaring. But geeze, the man could play!
And not just guitar, as I'm sure many fans also know. He could step up to any instrument on that stage and rock the crowd.
People who say that never really delved into his catalogue nor witnessed him live. They just hear the pop hits on the radio and think that he was just part of the pop factory machine.
Let’s go crazy is a must. From the same movie and album purple rain
Cheers Dylan 😁
Prince was a master on the guitar (as well as a great singer). For a great guitar solo listen to the tribute to George Harrison, "While my guitar gently weeps" with som great guitar legends - and Prince with a fantastic guitar solo. As for high notes listen to my favorite band Dirty Loops "Breakdown" (and all their other stuff) worldclass musicians!
Prince - one of the best! 💙
He was brilliant. Watch his superbowl halftime show and it actually started pouring rain. It was bonkers.
I'm gonna react to all the songs thats in his superbowl set and then see how he performs them after I've done the reactions 😁
*”When Doves Cry”*
*”Little Red Corvette”*
*”1999”*
I remember when people thought Prince wasn't actually playing his guitar. The rumor took hold for awhile because he was so good he never looked down at his guitar. I was lucky enough to be around alot of musicians that could see his talent. If you pay attention when he raises his hand he actually looks at his guitar because he's playing with just one hand.
Prince was amazing!
Such a great talented man.
Purple rain album is a classic! not a dud track on it .
There's a young Kiwi (New Zealand)singer named Stan Walker who did a cover of this. While there will never be another prince, Stan did an awesome job of it
Oh yes oh yes oh yes! Prince commands the guitar. Very talented.
Ahh Lee..Prince is fire❤❤. I no longer get any notifactions when you post????😊
On one of his albums, I think this one he played every single instrument on the album and then layered them in. He’s a music genius. No artist in history has ever done that.
Not only could Prince play the guitar, but he is regarded as the BEST rock guitarist of his generation by many of his peers and critics. He was also proficient in dozens of other instruments. Prince was a musical genius. He wrote, produced, and arranged nearly all of his albums. He's played ALL of the instruments in several of his early albums. For his debut, he was told that Maurice White of Earth, Wind & Fire was going to be the producer. Prince flat out refused. He said, "Nobody is producing my album, but me." Prince was music. Prince was rock n' roll, soul, funk, R&B, pop, jazz and blues.
I was blessed to be at a Purple Rain concert back in the day and it was my favorite of all concerts.
damn son! Prince is easily in the Top 50 of the most technically gifted guitar players (to me). He was a very good guitar player
top 5 if you consider he played what was perfect for each song. I always say if you put Prince, Jimi and Stevie Ray Vaughan on a stage with any guitarist, they will be the last three left. They had swag like nobody else.
A great telecaster player among so many instruments 😋😋😋😋
Fckin gripes me that 😂😂😂😂
@@infin8reactions 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You gotta watch the 1985 Sarcyus performance! Talk about Gutair playing! The way he makes it sing!
I hope you take time to watch the film if you haven't already..it's almost like being at a concert..true classic 💯
The film is called "Purple Rain" - all the songs he sings in the film are exactly the same, i.e. live on the LP "Purple Rain". You can also hear the audience on the Purple Rain song on the LP, just like in the film. He was one of the great artists.
I suggest you look into Prince’s 80’s hits. In fact this song won an Oscar/Academy Award. Also listen to the studio versions because you get the songs in their entirety. What you are watching now is from the movie. Please please react to the studio version of “Let’s Go Crazy “.
Prince was an amazing guitar player you just dont often hear his abilities due to him doing mostly R&B. One of his influences was Jimi Hendrix. If you do some digging into his live proformances and collaborations/dou sessions you will see him show his talent.
Actually, he's said he was influenced more by Carlos Santana and you can really tell if you listen to Jimi and listen to Carlos. That doesn't mean he didn't love Jimi also though, but people do compare based on just the fact that they're black guitarists with multi-ethnic bands, which is a shame.
Lee the movie is worth the watch. Ima weirdo but my 3 fav guitarists are StevieT, Prince and Eddie VanHalen. Oh Lee you gotta watch this movie! :)
For me this song IS Prince. Watch his Superbowl half-time show. Easily 1 of the greatest SB shows ever.
This song was written by the girls in the band and he kept blowing them off. In the movie, his father attempted suicide, and he was so upset that he was “Shocked” into listening to the song and then sang it with his band. He won the contest he was competing in with his band. You need to see the movie to understand his character and complicated relationship he had with his father who was a wonderful pianist who wrote his own music. The Minneapolis sound is where Prince Rodgers Nelson was introduced to the world!
To see Prince show I believe it was Rolling Stone and their guitar player ratings in their place, you need to watch him play While My Guitar Gently Weeps. He performed this at George Harrison's R&R induction along with Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne, Dhanni Harrison and Steve Winwood. He killed it! Prince played every instrument. If someone in the band wasn't playing it exactly how he wanted he would show them. He has over 8000 songs that he has written. The only time it rained at the Superbowl was the day he performed. When they called him he just said could they make it rain harder. All time best Superbowl performance!

His music director and keyboard player for over 20 years, Morris Hayes, has done interviews that are so good. My favorite was the 4 part interview he did with Fil on the Wings of Pegasus channel. Morris Hayes is a fan talent and he recently has become friends with a young guitar player and has gone to his shows and even played Purple Rain onstage with him. He seems a fantastic guy. The guitar player is 14 yr old Taj Farrant. If you haven't seen him yet, you will. He's going to be one of the future superstars. Check him out even if you don't react to him. I always have to remind myself he's 14 when I watch him play ruclips.net/video/PMdqV4xfUe4/видео.htmlsi=zU2ynoCSLlJf0DSa
Agreed. Not only is the solo brilliant, his swagger is just next level. That's what a star looks like. Like he was doing all of that in his sleep.
There is a reason Prince is a Legend. 1st Avenue! Hope you got a chance to research Prince a little more. He played all the instruments, singer, songwriter, etc. I use to live right off of Prince Rogers Nelson Memorial Highway just down the road from his house. Minnesota loves him!!!
Hi Lu should check out “ Let’s Go Crazy” which is also from the Purple Arian soundtrack. And then checkout his Rocka nd Roll Hallmof Fame George Harrison tribute to “While my guitar gently weeps”
He did record and perform “Norhing compares to U” . I would love to see you check out these songs.
SO SO talented! not sure he was the nicest person to be fair, heard a few stories, but there's no denying he was one of the greats.
He was a musical genius . . . the Mozart of our time. One my collage classmates was an extra in this video, she was in the audience. I wasn't there for the movie shoot but was fortunate to hear/see him perform on the First Ave stage on several occasions both before the movie release when he really blew up big, and after when he would just pop in unannounced and play a set. One time he almost stabbed my hand with the heel of his boot when he jumped off a speaker. He was tiny in stature but an ENORMOUS presence on stage. Don't want to sound cheesy but he was one with the music, it poured out of him. That is the only way I can describe it.
To see Prince at his shredding best you want to watch the "Stairway to Heaven" video from when Led Zep was inducted to the Rock and Roll HOF
I've never seen u do a Prince, happily surprised 😁 Dive deeper and check out one of my faves, "The Cross" live in Dortmund...so good! Give it a go, won't be disappointed. He's super talented and have loved him since the beginning. 💜
Prince is criminally underrated when it comes to discussing all time great guitarists, he was THAT good.
EDIT: Exxpect Dono request later :)
Awesome!! Bring it mate!! 😁
@@infin8reactions HI Lee, did you receive?
@@infin8reactions Lee what is normal turnaround on dono requests? I sent PP over a month ago after watching this reaction for While My Guitar Gently Weeps by various artists including Prince where you get an idea of how great a guitarist he was.
This recording was made at the first avenue club in Minneapolis. One take.
Prince is considered one of the best ever to play guitar. I'm a stevie ray fan but being a kid and black from the 80sbi appreciate. Watch the Superbowl performance. Also be brave and watch purple rain.
Hello there. I gotta say I usually do not watch filter videos. But if I was to rate, you my friend the best copy right filter. Enjoyed the purple rain reaction ,from someone who comes from the purple state of Minnesota.
There's an amazing live version from an awards show where he played the hell out of this song. Would L♡VE to see you review his live cover of Motherless Child. So happy to see you venture down Prince Avenue.
Jessie J does a really good cover of ‘purple rain’ on the 2018 singer show that you should check out 😊 xx
Never was into Prince back then because I was on team Michael; you were either for Prince or for Michael Jackson in high school haha, but of course I knew this song and i must admit it was secretly on my selfmade cassette (aka playlist nowadays)
Watch him play on “Empty Rooms” and “Something in the water” or the legend that is “While my guitar gently weeps” and many many more
vocals range ...somewhere on planet earth...LIVE and his octaves are at least 6
All musicians that are making any money on their music can probably think Prince for that. Prince is the one that taught everyone in the music industry the value of owning your catalog. Prince was also a musical genius. He taught himself how to play over 40 instruments. And he wrote some of the biggest hits the industries ever known. Sinead O'Connor rocked Nothing Compares To You, but Prince wrote it. He did it first, and he did it better! So many people don't realize the gift we lost when we lost this man.
Cool reaction. Watch the movie, it puts the great song in better context. If u watch "making of the rain" concert on you tube the version of purple rain became the album version. He added the orchestra later. Before this tour started, he was tired of purple rain.
At rehearsal, stage was three tiers, ten feet higher than the other. He was on top tier in the bath tub, tub wasn't nailed down, he stood up a little, the tub flipped over w prince inside, hitting each tier til he hit the floor. They though he died. After that, every night, playing in pain.
Good prince guitar songs:
"Feline" rehearsal
"Computer blue" st louis studio version
"Temptation"
"The ride" 1998 from crystal ball album
"Head" live 1981 houston has cool guitar distortion
"Alexa de paris" 1986
"3121" from BET awards show
Cool reaction. Prince dremed purple rain a country western song. He got the melody from a journey song
'no one should be able to sing this high' 😂
Twenty One Pilots are dropping their new single 'Overcompensate' in a few hours, would love for you to check it out!!
I'll get to it, it will probably have a ton of blocks on it but I'll do it don't worry 😁
thanks!@@infin8reactions
thanks!@@infin8reactions
Baby I’m a star…
Quick comment as I didn’t see anyone had made it - he DID do a version of “nothing compares to U”. Apparently - and this is from memory and also could have been a bad source, he didn’t approve it being given to Sinned to do, and kind of resented her having the success she had with it. I think she spoke about it in an interview, and also…hmmm…there may have been an accusation of him trying things on with her and being a tool about it - I’m fairly sure I remember either her speaking about that, or someone saying it is in her autobiography.
The impression I get is that he was an incredible talent (often playing all the instruments on a track and producing it himself - reminds me of Ren), but could also be a tool at times. I’m sure he was nice to his mum etc and there are lots of people who have good things to say, but I think there are a few credible sources that …he could be a tool too.
Yeah - checked and from one report after her death:
“Prince and O’Connor’s relationship became turbulent after the Purple Rain singer reportedly called her to his mansion to chat.
According to O’Connor, the megastar turned violent after giving her a piece of his mind and bizarrely insisting she eats soup while visiting.”
And
“Over the years, the This Is The Day singer has accused Prince of being furious at her success with his record which she transformed into a power ballad.
O’Connor’s version became a chart hit, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and staying there for four weeks as well as reaching the tops of the UK charts.
The pair had not met before this moment, although O’Connor believed her manager and Prince had had some disagreement prior.
Prince apparently summoned O’Connor to his mansion for the dressing down but allegedly turned violent, offering a pillow fight to settle their differences.
She claimed the music legend hit her with a hard object hidden inside a pillowcase, although she backtracked on her claims in 2004.”
‘It’s not just drugs he was into, it was darkness,’ she told investigators from the Carver County Sheriff’s Office in a recorded interview which took place two weeks after the death.
When she tried to escape his ‘macabre’ Hollywood home, O’Connor claimed Prince blocked her and then physically dragged her to his car.
She sprinted away on foot to a neighbour’s house and rang the doorbell desperately, at which point Prince abandoned the pursuit.
In her memoir, Rememberings, O’Connor wrote: ‘Firstly, Prince didn’t like people covering his songs. Secondly, he had all these female protégés and he was annoyed that I wasn’t one of them.
‘Thirdly, my manager Steve Fargnoli had been his manager and they were involved in a legal case. On top of all this he was a woman-beating ****. I’m certainly not the only woman he laid a hand on.’
Also - although Prince apparently publicly said he liked her version:
“The Prince estate did decline the use of the song for the 2022 documentary Nothing Compares, focusing on O’Connor’s life.
Prince’s half-sister Sharon Nelson told Billboard: ‘I didn’t feel [O’Connor] deserved to use the song my brother wrote in her documentary so we declined. His version is the best.’”
@@sputukgmailNeither of his wives, nobody who ever knew him, worked for him, or had any kind of relationship with him thought he had even a hint of violence in him. Whereas Sinead had a lot of mental health issues. She accused Arsenio Hall of drug supplying and only retracted when he threatened to sue her.
@@sputukgmail No evidence of what you recall re: neighbours. You’re obviously unfamiliar with Paisley Park and its surroundings. There weren’t neighbours as we would understand it.
Also, what the Johnny Depp/Amber Heard case taught us is that you need evidence for an accusation and not to assume man = bad/ woman = good. Sinead O’Connor made many claims about people but never had anything to back it up. Nobody who knew him thought Prince was capable of such behaviour, least of all the two women he married. You obviously know nothing about Prince or his life. You’re spreading smears about someone who isn’t here to defend himself.
@@sputukgmail She’s written a book about her life with him. You could try reading it. No claims of violent behaviour. She was fully consenting and nothing illegal occurred.
Gosh…check out this live version of this song, but the guitar playing, just out of this world: ruclips.net/video/zPlI6BIzp0c/видео.htmlsi=pjvXdKeggT1m2nuE .Do it for yourself if for no other reason.
Some songs should be watched to understand Prince: Kiss, Boys & Girls, If I was Your Girlfriend ( LIve) , America ( Live) , Cream ( acoustic) , Sign of the Times , The Super Bowl (live preformance), Little Red Corvette etc, etc.....there's simply too much, but worth to watch. ;)
Watch the Dortmund Germany version
I’m not sure, but please tell me if you’ve actually watched purple rain after this because it’s actually a very good movie
Prince was awesome. You missed out then. It is best to experience prince when he was living and doing his thing. We will always miss prince too. If you dont know prince you aint a true musician.
Continuum song by Imminence please
It always amazes me when people take Prince for granted. Dude was bonefide. Purple Rain is about God, communion with God and his prayer for a lost love who was real. It has nothing to do with the end of the world, That was 1999. Per, Prince.
As soon as someone says “I had no idea Prince could play guitar”… I already know they have zero music intelligence, and I tune them out. So, Less than 2 minutes in, and I’m leaving this video.
Just watch the movie, please. Just get it over with.
Your ignorance of this song is, frankly shocking and disappointing.
Just skip it for a few years.
Oh wow, god help someone who's never listened to prince eh?
How about this..... Instead of being offended and disappointed, how about you try to guide someone who hasn't listened to a song before instead of shitting on them? .......
I think the ignorance is on your side, you should try to be better.
@@infin8reactions Yeah haters are haters they just want to make you feel like shit. I want to do the Opposite by supporting you and your videos. ❤❤
Lol get over yourself dude.
Thanks so much Sandra 😊❤️
Facts Kathleen! 😁
Check out Prince performing at the 2004 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame tribute to George Harrison's While My Guitar Gently Weeps
