Best Love Song?

So... I read Entertainment Weekly's website regularly, and today they posted a 25 Best Love Songs slideshow... I guessed that it might have a Prince song on it... and sure enough, it did... but not the one I'd expect. http://www.ew.com/ew/gall...l#20070916 It was Purple Rain.

A mind-blowing song, no doubt, but I wouldn't even consider it Prince's best love song. (I'd pick Adore, I think) What says you?

Why would you expect any other song? The GP doesn't even know Prince made other albums..

When We're Dancing Close & Slow is probably my fave, it's so intimate

Adore

Beautiful Ones

Scandalous

But this is Entertainment Weekly, they're obviously going for the widest swath possible

I love A Million Days... now you know someone else. smile

My personal favorite Prince love song is ADORE. By the way, I consider a love song to be a song that you'd actually listen to while making 'love'. I don't know how Purple Rain is considered a 'love' song.

Does anybody know you're here? This house of ill-repute...

To me, it's haunting and there is something so loving in it.

Oh I just meant most romantic song, there are so many, I'd include a million days!

With your criteria for a love song I'd use something more raunchy lol! I don't think I'd ever put on a prince song, my hubby would feel too jealous!

Adorecream

Adore is my number one and number one Prince song. He sings like he is besotted with her and will let her do anything but bash up his ride, also you know he's devoted as he's not just fucking just 4 kicks. But the winner is the creamy acapella chorus and multi tracked vocal layering in it. The spoken part at the end, and just that final part where he says "I'll b there 4 u baby". You need the album version not the single edit you get on the Hits.

When 2 R in Love my second choice

Do Me Baby is my favourite sex song (Not so sure if theres much love in that song though).

I also think One Kiss at a time is an amazing love song too.

Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name
