Because it's called Purple. :-)

I'd be really impressed if it was him.  Didn't really see anything in the credits.  Did he really sing it?

lol, no it wasnt him ... i dont know the guy's real name, but STP used to use that song as part of their intro music on the 1992-1993 tour.  and they felt that it was only fitting to include it on the 'Purple' album, and the lyrics fit as well.

Q: Chris asks: I was wondering, for your FAQ page if you could answer something that has been bugging me for a long time. At the end of Purple who sings the bonus track at the end of the record? It doesn't sound like Scott. Johnny Mathis?

A: Robert DeLeo: "Richard Peterson. He's an artistic street musician. We asked permission to use one track off his CD called "My Second Album"." Scott: Weiland explained: "The guy is a kind of autistic savant who has this bizarre obsession with Johnny Mathis. He follows him around on tour when he's in the north west, and he collects money on the street to fund his own recordings We kept playing this song on tour before we went out, and it seemed fitting to put it on the end of the album."

Of cousre they didn't make the cd that color, or put purple anywhere, it's STP!

Well what if somebody wants to get the album at the record store, and they see that it only says "Stone Temple Pilots" on the album cover, jewel case spine, and the tape on top, and think it's a self-titled album or something???

because the chinese symbol ('word') on the album's cover means 'purple' in english..and it's no coincidence, STP wanted it to be called Purple obviously, cause they thought it sounded purple...
you know, like some music makes you think about dark colors, and some peaceful church songs might make you think white or something, and STP boys thought purple off of the songs they'd written, and named it like that, but for some reason wanted it to be written in chinese, and asked some cook in a chinese restaurant how the symbol (word) would look in chinese..

Obviously, but what about the newcomer fans? I mean the european vinyl says "Stone Temple Pilots" twice on the LP labels.
