It was the opening track on both the album and the film Purple Rain. %22Let's Go Crazy%22 is one of Prince's most popular songs, and is almost always a staple for concert performances, often segueing into other hits. When released as a single, the song became Prince's second number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100, and also topped the two component charts, the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Dance Club Play charts, as well as becoming a UK Top 10 hit. The B-side was the lyrically controversial %22Erotic City%22. In the UK, the song was released as a double A-side with %22Take Me with U%22.Common to much of Prince's writing the song is thought to be exhortation to follow Christian ethics, with the %22De-elevator%22 of the lyrics being a metaphor for the Devil.The extended %22Special Dance Mix%22 of the song was performed in a slightly edited version in the film Purple Rain. It contains a longer instrumental section in the middle, including a solo on an apparently out-of-tune piano and some muddled lyrics, repeating the track's introduction." . "New wave songs" . "7"^^ .
