As a symbol, the Dove is usually known for love and peace. Doves crying is actually a symbol that means things are changing , a prophecy that whatever you’re going through is coming to an end. “When Doves Cry” is just a metaphor of what happens when a beautiful relationship goes sour and the changes that have to happen.

@@becomeaproreacts1536 “Mountains” and “Girls & Boys “ music video from Under the Cherry Moon were great videos you should checkout. Yes. His live performances were unbelievable!

This was a MASSIVE hit as was the entire Purple Rain era of Prince. Prince also joined Elvis Presley and the Beatles in being the only artists to have the number-one album, single and film in the US all at the same time. He changed the music industry and pop culture. Check out Let's Go Crazy next. It's funk/rock Prince. There is an unedited version of When Doves Cry which is killer. You should check it out too

Eddie Murphy named his show "Delirious" as a reference from the eponymous Prince song in the "1999" album. And you're right about Prince being a ladies' man, he even wrote a song named "Pussy control".

Cool reaction, sir. You should def. check out the extended video version. The song REALLY takes off...Prince was a walking genius (sang, produced and played all the instruments on this one and many more....) Missing the goods. Cool stuff.

Joeybada$$ did a live cover of this called “When Thugz cry” he remixed it and it’s amazing. I hope you can react. Also the Purple Rain movie was semi autobiographical but Prince did have a very dark childhood. His step father was abusive, he was even homeless for a few days at 12. He had a complex relationship with his parents too. This song is very heavy. Love your reaction 🤗

No way, that's sick 😳

Prince’s parents divorced when he was 10. His dad kicked him out of the house at 12 when he caught Prince in bed with a girl. Prince bounced around between relatives and friends’ homes until he finally stayed with Andre Cymone’s family.

Ayye prince is a real G 😭

Prince owned two doves for years , Majesty and Divinity. When he says this is what it sounds like when doves cry is really how they sounded crying. Prince was able to " speak " and communicate through his instruments.

The video is showing clips from the movie ‘Purple Rain’ which is loosely a semi-biography. Prince lyrically was a genius. Great songwriter.

Watch the MOVIE! It represents his tumultuous childhood and some insight into the abusive relationships in the home. He rose to greatness from the tragedy that was his home life. 😢

Listen to this in a car with a PHENOMENAL stereo system, THE BASS IS UNREAL, it will blow you out, and the guitar 🎸 work is NEXT LEVEL, JIMI HENDRIX-ISH!!!

There is no Bass in When Doves Cry, Prince decided to take the bass line out. 💜

@k.bevan.6425 BTW the time I remember hearing WHEN DOVES CRY, in a "BUMPING CAR STEREO," was in the 80's, in my brother's car

This "single version" fades out just when the guitar solo comes in. Did you notice there's no bass? ;) You must try his Live recording. Copy, paste, search: Prince - Super Bowl XLI 🏈 | Halftime Show 2007 FULL SHOW HD Prince Live - Play that funky Music - Hollywood Swinging - Fantastic Voyage 4/28/11 Prince Live At The Brit Awards 2006 Prince - America (Live 1985) [Official Video] Prince - Never Take the Place of Your Man (1987 Sign of the Times concert movie)

He's taking a bath because he's sooo funky.

​@@becomeaproreacts1536Cool , I get it. Prince has hundreds of songs.

I own the movie, STILL LOVE IT, IT WAS GROUNDBREAKING for it's time, the movie was a long music video, he was a genius, wrote all the songs in a matter of days, is what i read

Great reaction! BTW Eddie Murphy took that line from Prince not the other way around. Facts. I remember at the beginning of his Delirious tour he would play Prince’s song Delirious from his 1999 album. I think there might be a video of it online. He did I think a Barbra walters interview where he’s driving up in car jamming to the song too.

Here's another fun fact. This song is entirely Prince's creation. After the soundtrack for Purple Rain was completed He was asked by the director of the movie Purple Rain to add another song to the track. Prince wrote produced When Doves Cry in 2 days. In 1984 it shot straight to #1 and stayed in the Hot Billboard charts for 28 weeks. He also had the #1 album and film all out at the same time as the single When Doves Cry..

The hottest bath ever 🤣You're so funny! Yes, his parents got divorced. The span of his music is as wide as to cover funk, rock (Rocking guitar...), jazz and soul as well as pop, so it may take long to deep dive into his world. But once you enter his music world, there is no limit -- we can find all different versions of songs and performances, evolving over decades. Performance-wise, I recommend Purple Rain (Super Bowl halftime, 1985 AMA, The Brit Awards (2006) or Syracuse (1985)). For the 80s vibes, Raspberry Beret, Take Me With U, U Got the Look, 1999 or Cream. Songs like Kiss and Sign O the Times were ahead of time and also hit No 1.

No baseline. Absolute genius.

If you review Little Red Corvette make sure it’s the EXTENDED version.

I already posted the video bro

Give it up for the GOAT. 💜

You should do a reaction video of the entire movie Purple Rain

Another great reaction from BCP! This time around most of your questions were answered by others so I'll comment something fun. Prince is said to have completely recorded more than 5000+ songs and there are more half completed demoes and whatnot. The released songs are in the ball park of 1000-1500 (if you count his NPG tracks) and alot of their titles have general everyday words or phrases as their namesake. In the beginning you mentioned liking postivity well "Positivity" is an underrated song from an underrated album (once you see the cover you can tell why it got removed from stores or put on the backselves) and the Delirious Comedy Tour you mentioned was actually inspired by "Delirious" from the same album as "Little Red Corvette". From now on I'll comment any songs that you say the title of unknowingly.

Prince is very nuanced with his lyrics. Most of his lyrics were multitiered. BTW DOVES are usually symbols of peace.

Oh I see 💜☔️

There's an extended version of this song which has the guitar and synthesizer solos and his signature screaming. You should have reacted to it. This song is from his movie Purple Rain which you should react to next.

Re-listen and check the bass line. ;-)

Doves would cry while watching people purposely hurt the people they love. It would make them weep with sadness and tragedy. Doves are a symbol of peace and love. If the doves were physically real and witnesses to your life and the love you possess, and you and the person you love fight and hurt each other on purpose, ~~> those doves would cry while they watched.

the line "how could you just leave me standing alone in a world thats so cold" is referring to his mother. he had abondement issues

You not lying, that bath so hot, all that water evaporated 😂

Go watch the movie!!!

Wow! I find this hard to believe that this man never heard When Doves Cry? The only way this could happen is that he was born in the year 2000? lol! However, I will take his word for it.

Watch the movie purple rain

you have to watch the movie....

Watch the movie. "Purple Rain" It will answer all of your questions regarding this video.

7:50Dude watch the movie 😂

Actually, Prince was a 1 woman man. His friends said he was so attentive to his woman it was a little embarrassing. Prince said we shouldn't be embarrassed or ashamed of sex. He said it's a spiritual experience between 2 people. This is another scene from his movie Purple Rain. He's fighting for the woman he loves in the movie. And his family is messed up. Check out You got the look. I want to be your lover.

Honestly you should've re viewed the extended version. I just feel a reaction to this track isn't complete with this version.

Doves are beautiful. Like his ex was. They both argued. He made her cry. She left him out the blue This was in reference to his ex girlfriend who was to co star with him

Not a bad reaction, but I can't stand when you all don't watch the whole uncut video. You're missing some of the best parts of the video.
