I Would Die 4 U

About I Would Die 4 U

"I Would Die 4 U" was the fourth single in the U.S. from Prince and The Revolution's 1984 album, Purple Rain, released on 28 November 1984. The up-tempo dance song is thought by some Prince fans to be sung from the viewpoint of Jesus. Regardless, it was a popular dance song of late 1984 and a top 10 hit (the last from the album) in the U.S. The extended version of the song is actually a studio jam on the song with The Revolution and musicians from Sheila E. .
