Purple Rain

[ayceejay]

It was on the radio today and my dentist was noticeably tense, which is not good, for starters. But I find any attempt at entertainment when in that chair unworkable. But then he said "You are British, no? " I said "Nmmmnnah" "So" he continued, "What is that song all about?"
You may be as puzzled as I was about why I should know. All foreigners think it rains all the time in England so there was that but purple rain I had never seen that.
I have to go back again in a couple of weeks so I have the time so what is purple rain. If you can try to phrase it in a way I can say it with his iron wear in my mouth

Prince's explanation

Prince explained the meaning of "Purple Rain" as follows: "When there's blood in the sky – red and blue = purple... purple rain pertains to the end of the world and being with the one you love and letting your faith/god guide you through the purple rain."

AHHHHHNEVAH WANNED D'BE YO.... WEEKEND Lovah!



WOOOH!

Oh boy I can't go to the dentist with 'blood in the sky' on my mind - or his.

I don't know what it means, but I have never wanted to jump someone's bones as much as I wanted Prince at the end of that ridiculous film.

Tell him Prince an African American musician is from Minnesota. If you don't tick at least 3 of those boxes, he should ask elsewhere.

Fantastic song and artist and who needs an explanation

Tell the dentist to pop some recreational drugs then sit down and listen to the song again, it will all become clear.

I'd have said it was about a dentist who was murdered by an unhappy customer, and how its your favourite song.

Hell, he's got access to some top grade opioids. A couple of oxycontin washed down with a a glass of merlot should do the trick***

** I know literally nothing about opioids. Do not follow this prescription, it could kill you ... for all I know.

Arggh, the thought of a high dentist is enough to give me nightmares!

Do air ambulances take off if it is purple raining?
