The Question Of U (Unreleased Single) Eventually replaced by the release of Thieves In The Temple, how do you think this would have faired as a single from Graffiti Bridge? What would have been the most appropriate B-Side? Always cry 4 love, never cry 4 pain. |

I had no idea it wasn't a single.
Alot of people is saying this might be his best song of the 90's. Wierd then that this wasn't released as a single back in 1990. | |

Coming straight after the Nude Tour, where it was performed, it might have done well. The first simgles from his albums were usually the biggest hits. | |

"Thieves in the Temple" is a great single. "The Question of U" is my favorite song from Graffiti Bridge, but I'm not sure it would have been a smash single.

I wonder if a sleeve design for this was mocked up... | |

Absolutely love this song. I think it is way too sophisticated for commercial radio. They would probably truncated the guitar solo at the end to only a few seconds, which would ruin a key part. |

The issue is more that there's only one verse and chorus. | |

He should have released "New Power Generation" as a single, which is a weak song and didn't do well on the charts. "The Question of U" is a much stronger song and would have been a hit, even with it's unusual song structure. [Edited 9/5/16 6:01am] |

[Edited 9/5/16 6:01am] Like the sentiment but I think you are I over-estimating the radio programmers and the public. [Edited 9/5/16 6:49am] |

The B-Side should have been: Electric Man. Not dead, not in prison, still funkin'... |

Yeah, I'll add to those who love the NPG EP. "Loveleft, Loveright" is my favorite song Prince released from 1989-1991. Feel free to join in the Prince Album Poll 2018! Let'a celebrate his legacy by counting down the most beloved Prince albums, as decided by you! | |
