CNN host Wolf Blitzer paid tribute to Prince on the news network Thursday, but he briefly forgot which songs the late pop icon actually wrote.

"All of us, of course, remember "Purple Haze" and what that did for the world of music," Blitzer said of the classic Jimi Hendrix anthem.

But do you, Wolf? Do you remember?

In Blitzer's defense, he was likely confusing the song for Prince's "Purple Rain."
