    Purple Rain is a very difficult song but you guys nailed it! We want to see more!
  • @fridaymwamba9510
    One of the best covers of Purple Rain I have heard. Simple yet detailed. The vocals, instruments on point. I actually heard every word in the song.
  • @marilynguy5604
    Wow Jolan I never thought I would ever like anyone's take on this song by Prince but, you did him proud. Forget all the haters.
  • @dubilevsas2447
    Great singing Jolan! Although Prince is untouchable and his talent and voice are incomparable, you did the song justice. Brilliant!

    Man this dude has a cool voice AND cool hair?? How blessed can one guy be 😭
  • @cliffykus
    Your version on The Voice was one of the best versions ive ever heard. Love this stripped down acoustic version, great work Jolan!
  • @hippygypsy777
    Very beautiful version of that song young man. Prince would be delighted with it. At least I think he would........🤗🎶
  • @MrMassivefavour
    I too loved the live version. But people have to understand this lad is a musician and not a karaoke star. As an actual musician he can adapt, change and create. This shows a very smooth, relaxed and restrained side to his talent. If he picks his songs wisely he could be terrific. I would love to hear his take on some of the less known Pete Townshend stuff like "No Road Romance" or the Beautiful "Brooklyn Kids" or maybe some Donny Hathaway covers would be nice. Hopefully he will take good advice and hook up with some great song writers who will give his voice and musicality the vehicle it deserves.
  • @annied4970
    Words just flow effortlessly, perfectly and musically from this enormously talented young man. I would pay to see him perform. He should be an international superstar.

  • Lyrics I never meant to cause you any sorrow I never meant to cause you any pain I only wanted to one time to see you laughing I only wanted to see you Laughing in the purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain I only wanted to see you Bathing in the purple rain I never wanted to be your weekend lover I only wanted to be some kind of friend Baby, I could never steal you from another It's such a shame our friendship had to end Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain I only wanted to see you Underneath the purple rain Honey, I know, I know I know times are changing It's time we all reach out For something new, that means you too You say you want a leader But you can't seem to make up your mind I think you better close it And let me guide you to the purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain If you know what I'm singing about up here C'mon, raise your hand Purple rain, purple rain I only want to see you Only want to see you In the purple rain
