WATCH: Dabo Swinney sings 'Purple Rain' again |
Clemson coach
Dabo Swinney really likes Prince's classic song Purple Rain.
Swinney was asked Thursday at the ACC Kickoff about his first concert experience. "Prince was my first legit [concert]. PURRRPPPLEEEE Rain," Swinney said. "It doesn't get any better than that. Sheila E and Purple Rain. I actually saw him twice because he came back later on. I was living when 'Party like it was 99' and this was 1980 something at the time. 1999 seemed like a million years away." ?? Dabo Swinney simultaneously dissing Duran Duran and singing Purple Rain is the ONLY THING you need to start your day. ??#ACC #Clemson pic.twitter.com/xOfa06YiWK Flashback to the annual ACC Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl Challenge Golf Tournament as Swinney also gave a shout-out to Prince's Purple Rain.
Thanks, Dabo as I have the song stuck in my head now and I have to watch the following video:
RIP Prince
