Purple Rain - My Tribute to Prince
(Edited)
April 21, 2020 marked the 4 year anniversary of Prince's passing.
The day after his death I began the process of creating a piano rendition of Purple Rain.
Usually, an artist's most popular song is not also my favorite, but this is the exception.
Purple Rain is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard.
Prince meant a great deal to me musically and his passing deeply affected me.
I like to post this each year in remembrance of this truly great and inspiring artist.

Prince was a true talent. I can't believe it has been 4 years. I love your rendition of Purple Rain. You did an amazing job and tribute to Prince. 😻
I know, it's scary how quickly time flies....and thank you ❤️
Great. I love you, will you have Instagram Miss to follow you?
Thank you!
I don't really use Instagram that much, I think my account is isariacat or isacat....I can't even remember lol
I'm on twitter though as isariacat
I haven't ever felt motivated by prince, but that was nice. I like the sort of ambient vocals, mixed with the more passionate playing, and you executed it well.
You into Harold Budd?
He's one of my favorite pianists:
Specifically this album:
I think a bit more melancholic than your sound. It's kind of like my xanax album.
Thank you :)
I tried to watch the video but it says "video unavailable".... weird
Xanax albums are the best albums lol
Harold Budd - La Bella Vista
It's basically 48 minutes of exploring one mellow theme on a piano.
I used to really enjoy stuff like frantic, noise, dissonance, manic, doom, etc, cause I felt like I could sympathize with it, and such.
These days, those sorts of songs short my fuse, and I just want some ambient piano for extended periods of time.
They even have a warning as an album title in case of overdose -- "An Hour a Day, No More..." Harold Budd and Robin Guthrie.
