Interesting Song Titles From Estate Inventory

This list of copywritten material owned by the Estate has a lot of unreleased and unheard of songs (by me at least). These are some of the songs we have the besst chance of eventually hearing since they were well thought of enough to include with many unreleased songs we already know. These are some of the one I found most interesting:

03 Bonnie & Clyde (an unreleased remix?)

5 Foot City

Aguadilla

America Number One

Asswoop

Battle Flag

Be My Mirror

Bela Lugosi (maybe the soundtrack for that UTCM scene in the hotel)

Butterscotch

Coca Cola Jingle (the only evidence of him considering doing a commercial)

Daddy Never Left Ya

Exploding All Over Europe

Goldie’s Parade

I Feel Stereo

I Want U (Inner City Blue) (possibly for the 1995 Marvin Gaye tribute compilation?)

I Want U (Purple Version) <<<<<<<

Kitchen, Surgery, Face Off

No Cones Allowed

Poorgoo

A Rapper’s Reputation

Showgirls

Synth Explosion

Yo Mr. President

A few of these have been released. Also, Kitchen, Surgery Face-Off is the name of a track on Danny Elfman's Batman score, I wonder what the Prince one is.

Of course Beyonce sings the IIWYG hook on Bonnie & Clyde can't believe I forgot that. It's not quite as exciting that these are Prince samples and not new Prince songs but it makes sense under copyright.

BFTP doesn't even cover every vault track circulating, much less everything recorded.

The Coca Cola jingle was probably something written just to compete with Michael Jackson's infamous Pepsi campaign during the 80s. I don't remember hearing talk of a possible Coke commercial starring Prince and I can't imagine he would have actually gone through with it.

97% of the songs not on prince's own official releases are from songs he wrote for others,
bits and pieces from/for the movies or from samples of his music used by other people in
their songs.

actual outtakes on that list are very few indeed.

There sure is, you're starting on your journey. Seek out the 'Work It 2.0' collection. See reply number 20 in this link for the track list, http://prince.org/msg/7/375489

A bit of Scandalous is used in that music piece.

Good list.

Tina Turner did that 2012 Target commerical with "baby I'm a Star", I am sure Prince/WB needed to approve that one.

I remember Prince did some Print adverstising for Verizon during the 3121 tour, and of course he was sponsed by Coca Cola for Act II. I am sure there are some Prince advertisement he has done, but it mainly for his products like 3121 perfume, etc.
