It looks as if Captain America may have a new super power.

Chris Evans took to his Instagram Stories over the weekend to share a piano cover of Prince’s 1984 classic “Purple Rain,” complete with the caption, “Purple Rain on a sunny day.”

This isn’t the first time Evans has been seen behind the keys, as he previously shared a cover of a work by composer Fabrizio Paterlini to his Instargam Stories months back. His latest, though, has surely kept Marvel fans on their toes.

“chris evans in a cap, white henley shirt, tattoo peaking out whilst playing the piano what more could one ask for,” one Twitter user asked.

Evans’ piano cover comes after a weeks-long back-and-forth on social media with Lizzo, who first shot her shot with the 40-year-old actor on Instagram months back.

In an interview with Big Boy in August, Lizzo opened up about why she decided to reach out to the Avengers star.

“I saw a video of him hollering at this Black girl,” Lizzo explained. “It was like a paparazzi video and it was old. He was outside of this hotel or whatever and he was hollering at this Black girl. He didn’t know nobody was looking at him. He was Christopher Jamal, OK? I don’t know what happened with that, but I know it was years ago so I was like, well she probably not in the picture no more.”
