Today is a very special day, 26 years ago in 1985, Prince won an Academy Award for the music he provided in the movie "Purple Rain.
He won in the category of "Best Original Song Score", beating out "The Muppets Take Manhattan" and Kris Kristofferson's "Songwriter." He did not perform that night, but we do have his acceptance speech below.
And here's the masterpiece we all love.
