For makeup I've long loved purple and plummy eyeshadows, and I'm always drawn to all kinds of purple nail polishes, from lilac to deep eggplant hues. I can't be without purple. <br />As for Prince, Purple Rain was the first album I ever bought, through hoarded allowance money and the odd dollars and quarters earned for chores. I also got to see it at the drive-in that summer. For favorite songs, though, I've had tons going through my head all week: Let's Go Crazy, When Doves Cry, 1999, Little Red Corvette, Beautiful Ones, Kiss, Most Beautiful Girl in the World, Controversy, Pop Life, Raspberry Beret, Seven, Sign of the Times... and there's way more. I remember hearing When Doves Cry on the radio, though, and being blown away by that. It sounded so different, so poetic... I made a lot of mixtapes of his music to tote around and play on my Walkman is all I can say...Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18033363994944900685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-17047891519982831012016-04-25T00:20:28.414-07:002016-04-25T00:20:28.414-07:00Favorite prince song is hard.

I liked it but even after tasting his tremendous influence in music to that day, didn't really get into it. Fast forward a few years, I now finally have a job that pays well and am married to a percussionist that came THIS close to playing in front of Prince, and still living in Minneapolis, and all of a sudden Prince dies. I guess I always took for granted that I was gonna see him live one day, since he does a lot of impromptu concerts in and around Minneapolis. Just saw Purple Rain today and recognized SO many of his hits that I've heard, knowingly or unknowingly on the public radio here over the years, and for the first time, his sincerity and emotional intensity in his music really hit me. My husband and I both cried many times. I guess influence and fame makes a person seem both invincible and immortal, and though Prince always showed his vulnerability, he finally reminded us that he too cannot escape death. I don't really know where I was going with this, so I'll just end with my favorite songs: When Doves Cry and The Beautiful Ones. As far as makeup goes, I don't really look good in purple, unless you count Kir Royale from Bite Beauty.RebelSonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01304174772928905758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-8223263036916734292016-04-24T21:09:38.672-07:002016-04-24T21:09:38.672-07:00One of my top faves is St. Lucia lilac by Essie.

But that song always brings back memories: anyone who grew up in the 80s and purchased the Purple Rain album will agree that the song was quite shocking upon hearing it for the first time.

He had soooo many songs, even ones I forgot about so it has been a great weekend just groving to Prince. Let's Go Crazy and Raspberry Beret are probably my favs, but I really can't pick just one. He was a true icon and there will never be another artist like him. G, you said it best: Nothing Compares to U Prince!

I'd have to go with "Let's Go Crazy" with The Revolution, best duet song would be a tie between "U Got The Look" with Sheena Easton and "Love Song" with Madonna, and best song by another artist written by Prince would be "Manic Monday" by the Bangles. I can't believe a part of my youth died at such a young age! He'll definitely be missed! :( My favorite purple beauty product is Elizabeth Arden's Beautiful Color Luminous Lip Gloss in Iridescent Mauve. It has a slight hint of purple to it, and I absolutely love it! (I hope this post isn't a duplicate.

Makeup-wise, I always go for various eyeshadow shades of purple, however, back in the day, mid-late '80's, Maybelline had an almost neon metallic lilac soft eyeshadow pencil I loved.
