b sides better than the single

Hey,I am listening to Hello now and I think its better than Pop Life. What b sides in zour opinion are better than the actual single it was supporting?

^hmm I don't agree, Pop Life is classic Prince music imo....

but here are a few of mine:

I Love U In Me better than The Arms Of Orion
Housequake better than U Got The Look

Hello... I'm Come funkateer 'Danceelectric'
from Housequake.com

I've been listening to "hello" all week and I'm not sure it's better,but I listen to it way more than I do "pop life".O and it has to be the xtended version.Same with "LaLaLa/HeHeHe"...But "She's Always In My Hair" would be my choice

17 Days is better than When Doves Cry
She's Always In My Hair is better than
Alexa De Paris is better than Mountains
Erotic City is only slightly better than Let's Go Crazy (just for the funkiness of it)
Shockadelica is borderline better than If I Was Your Girlfriend

This is blasphemy you speak sir

I don't really know...I never really owned that many singles. Although I always loved, "How Come You Don't Call me." I can't remember what the A-side was.

She's Always In My Hair is 100xtimes better than Raspberry Beret.
I Love U In Me - Arms Of Orion

La,la,la,he,he,hee was better than Sign O' the Times(they didn't even bother to remix it or extend it).
Same deal as above with Shockadelica & If I Was Your Girlfriend(this could've been an erotic playground in the right mixers hands especially with Sheila E and Cat being around for that time).

hard question 4 me

because the b-side (in my opinion) always tell another side of the story
or just another story, and it's hard to compare, when the style of music might just be so much different. Especially since we are dealing with the Purple High years example When Doves Cry musically is so much different from 17 Days
1999 is so much different from How Come U Don't Call Me

Escape is an extension of Escape

1999 How Come U Don't Call Me
(Delirious?) Horny Toad
Let's Go Crazy Erotic City
I Would Die 4 U Another Lonely Christmas
When Doves Cry 17 Days
Purple Rain God(the Dance Electric)
Raspberry Beret She's Always In My Hair
America Girl
Pop Life Hello
Kiss Love or Money
Mountains Alexa de Paris
Another Lover (?)
Sign o the Times La La La He He Hee
If I Was Your Girlfriend Shockadelica
I Wish U Heaven Scarlet Pussy
Glam Slam Escape
Party Man Feel U Up
the Future Electic Chair
Batdance 200 Balloons
Arms of Orion I Love U in Me

'On Sale Now!' > 'Somebody's Somebody'.













j/k

I 'Somebody's Somebody'. And 'On sale Now!' is probably the most shameless, self-publicising thing P has ever done. Ridiculous.

How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore is better than 1999. 1999 is a classic but it doesn't send chills down my spine, the b-side does.

On Sale Now cracks me up. Why is it wrong to promote your own material? You're right though, it's not better than "Somebody's somebody".
