Prince's Final Four of Slow Jams!

I'm on a slow jams kick. What's Prince's Final Four in your opinion? The top 4 slow jams Prince has ever done?

These are my picks, although there are quite a few that just missed the cut.


Adore
Pink Cashmere
The Beautiful Ones
Friend, Lover, Sister, Mother/Wife.

What are your top 4?

mine:

do me, baby (nevermind the last minute of it, tho')
god (instrumental version)
when we're dancing close and slow
scandalous

Yep.

Somebody on here sometime back (think it was Binaryjustin) created a faux-slow jams set/compilation (with cover an' all) that was sublime and kick ass. Wish someone knew where that thread was! I'll see if I can dig it up, just don't hold yer breath.

Mine:

Insatiable

Scandalous

Damn U

Extraordinary

U know it!

My favorite Prince slow songs are:

The Beautiful Ones
Still Would Stand All Time
Scandalous
Forever In My Life

but if I had to choose 4 more?

Shhhh
Sometimes It Snows In April
Pink Cashmere
How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore

When We're Dancing Close & Slow
It's Gonna Be Lonely
International Lover
God (instrumental)

1-Do Me Baby 2-International Lover 3-Adore 4-Insatiable .

It's true - I did! Oddly enough, I've spent the entire morning, looking through a load of unlabelled CDRs to try and find some archived stuff - but I didn't come across the Prince slow-jams compilation - but then again, I wasn't really looking for it, I was looking for a Kylie compilation...

I'll see if I can find it again later. It was called "Slow Love: A Collection of After-Dark Jams".

I need to have breakfast and shower, clean-around and stuff, but I'll definitely look for it later today.

The Beautiful One's
Purple Rain
I love U in Me
Sometimes it snows in April

Adore (no contest)
Damn U
The Beautiful Ones
Slow Love
