SUMMER'S GREATEST SONGS COUNTDOWN: Prince - "When Doves Cry"
from Hitmaker Chronicles · host Hitmakers Music Podcast / Caloroga Shark Media
Welcome back to Hitmaker Chronicles' countdown of the Top 20 Songs of the Summer, as voted by the staff of Caloroga Shark Media! I'm your host, Garrett Fisher. Coming in at number 8, we're diving into Prince's revolutionary 1984 masterpiece "When Doves Cry" — a track that broke every rule of pop music production while dominating the summer that "Purple Rain" conquered both screens and airwaves. We'll trace how a Minneapolis genius created the most unconventional #1 hit of the MTV era while Reagan ruled America and the Cold War defined global politics. Grab your purple everything — we're heading into Prince's purple reign.To become a premium subscriber (no ads and no feed drops) visit caloroga.com/plus.
