Atypical Prince songs I listened to "Dance With the Devil" for the first time recently and I didn't get an immediate Prince vibe from it. I could here it after I listened to it again but it wasn't obvious.
What are some other songs that "stand out" in his catalogue? | |

it's hard to answer, because he's covered so many genres; cannot even think of one he did not cover.
but a song that really got me thinking: WTF is "Computer" on Emancipation It was weird in the Princely sense, but extra weird 4 me | |

If you mean oddball sounding tracks in comparison to his "regular" sound. Hmmm.
"Others Here With Us" "Kiss" - since he didn't put it together the way we hear it, it's definitely not a Prince sounding song per se. It's a David Z one. "Annie Christian" with it's Fox Trot drum rhythm from a 6 year old's play organ. | |

"Willing and Able". It sounds like an african song. Listen to the guitar! You can tell about Prince's Future , but his Past is utterly unpredictable | |

Sounds more like a country song. | |

For whatever reason, the first song that comes to mind is Arrogance.
I think that song gets mixed reviews around here, but I think it's great. | |

Does Prince have a typical kind of song?  We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

Good question, perhaps for a new thread. What is a typical Prince song? First one that comes to my mind is Crucial. It has lots of the elements that one typically associates with Prince's (popular) songs. Stand at the crossroads, and look, and ask for the ancient paths...(Jeremiah 6:16) www.ancientfaithradio.com
