If Price were to retire and did one last show...

If Prince were to completely retire, as in no more music or concerts, but was to do one last show; what is the ONE song he could play that would leave you completely satisfied with the show? And also what would you like to see him close the show with as his last song ever performed live?

A 20 min. Version of Anastesia. Prince on piano, then finish up on guitar.

Prince did an interview with a woman at Record World. They talked about whatever, then he asked her: "Does your pubic hair go up to your navel?" At that moment, we thought maybe we shouldn't encourage him to do interviews.

A heavy, guitar-driven song.

Somewhat like Dreamer.

But maybe some 1982 outtake revamped?

Or a Jimi cover?

Hmm. For that one occasion he can join the Revolution...

But please do not play the hits.

Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry.

Price who?

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

Perhaps "For the Good Times" would be a appropriate?

Sampler set

just kidding

i think it will be a very very long version of purple rain.

But anastacia would be a great one indeed.

I saw his opening night show of Welcome to Canada and enjoyed all the songs, but when I heard he performed Gold for the second night here, I couldn't believe I missed that! I have to see him perform that, though I doubt I'm going to be shelling out concert money in the future.

I wouldn't want him to retire and do one last show.

There is your answer.

The one song that would leave me totally satisfied would be Days of Wild, but I would like to see him close the show with The Grand Progression

That seems it would be a one off thing or him to perform that these days

How about an overly long, self indulgent rendition of Everybody loves me...


Realisitically: IT would be Purple Rain lasting half hour minimum with at least "Woo Hoo Hoo Hoo" x 250

Ideally: Anna Stesia
Last December
Gold (Guitar solo)
All the critics love U...
orrrrrrrrrr
whip out some amazing extended Private Joy

Of course it would have to be Purple Rain because that's the Prince anthem.

Well, yeah, no doubt it would be Purple Rain, but it just seems cliche, I'd want him to open with Purple Rain, that would leave everyone guessing as to what he would close with

This is a variation of the "favorite Prince song"-type thread, so I will answer as I always do.

I do not have one Prince song that is my favorite. For me, there is not one Prince song that is the ultimate.

rose

I'm firmly planted in denial

The way he did it in Milan was anything but typical.

Besides, the song is an appropriate ending imo.

(why am I of all people justiftying my choice to this yahoo?)
