Prince why don't U believe in your work from 1993 to present ? I been hearing alot of people on this site saying that Prince always plays the same songs live and I have 2 say they are right. Prince seems to have a disconnect with all of his children born after 1993. For the most part the general public are more familar with the hits from 1980 - 1992 , but there were alot of songs that people would love to hear from the 90's and 00's. My suggestion is for Prince to start adding some of the following songs into his set lists and give these songs the respect they deserve :
The Most Beautiful Girl in the World P Control Get Wild ! 319 I Hate U Somebody's Somebody Holy River Beautiful Strange Come On Hot with U 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 The Work Musicology Call my Name Black Sweat Fury Beautiful , Loved & Blessed Future Baby Mama Guitar The 1 U Wanna C Dreamer Dance 4 Me Future Soul Song Everybody Loves Me

He does play some of those still. (See above) Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad. |

)The Most Beautiful Girl in the World = He did this song a lot of times this year in the sample set P Control Get Wild ! 319 I Hate U Somebody's Somebody Holy River Beautiful Strange = He played this once last year at aftershow in Paris. Come On Hot with U 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 The Work Musicology = he did this many many times this year and last year Call my Name Black Sweat = He did this song on the 02 if I'm not wrong, and as a sample in Welcome 2 America tour this year. Fury Beautiful , Loved & Blessed Future Baby Mama Guitar = he did this song many times last year, and this year he did the song already couple of times The 1 U Wanna C Dreamer = He did the song many times this year, and couple of times last year Dance 4 Me Future Soul Song = He did song couple of this year and last year Everybody Loves Me

from a 1983/84 interview
“The most important thing is to be true to yourself, but I also like danger’ he told Robert Hillburn in his last interview. “That’s what is missing from pop music today. There’s no excitement and mystery—people sneaking out and going to these forbidden concerts by Elvis Presley or Jimi Hendrix. I’m not saying I’m better than anybody else, but I don’t feel like there are a lot of people out there telling the truth in their music” - Prince | |

The most beautifull girl in the world was played ONCE at the o2, 9 seconds of it on the sampler medley... | |

I could live without hearing half of these. But I know he played Guitar, Future Soul Song, Dance 4 Me, Dreamer, Musicology, The Work and portions of The Most Beautiful Girl and Black Sweat here in LA recently. | |

That's right. So many hits, yet in 21 nights in the UK he couldn't play his one and only number 1.
A good chunk on that list by the op have been played a lot at or after the O2 though.

To be honest, by ignoring the existance of this travesty, he's still giving it more respect than it deserves.
blah blah blah |

You'll have to forgive my memory being hazy as it was 4 years ago now. I knew I'd heard it, even if only for a few seconds.
Anyway, you know the point I was trying to make, that Prince still does play the occasional song from post 1993, sometimes a snippet, sometimes a full version. It's a sweeping generalisation to say he doesn't "believe" in this work. Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad. |

Most of these weren't hits and would go down like a lead balloon live. Hot Wit U?.... Time for a slash. | |

if you only listen to "planet earth" (almost the whole album), "rich friends" and "purple and gold" you couldn't blame him for not liking his own music, but overall I like most of his post 1993-era. even recent songs like "cause and effect" still proves how funky he is. | |

he played Musicology last night in Dublin and opened the set with Gold | |

For me, he could play sometime:
Ripopgodazippa Days of Wild Acknowledge Me I Hate U Calhoun Square Empty Room Satisfied 18 & Over Face Down Incense and Candles Chaos & Disorder Pheromone Letitgo The Holy River Zannalee Colonized Mind Boom
I know, i know, that he wouldn't play most of these songs (Ripopgodazippa, 18 & Over etc.), cause they have sexual subtext. But I still want to hear them on concert. [Edited 7/31/11 10:39am] So evil girl, if one of us has a date,
