Best Prince song 2 'pick U Up' when Ur Down

When Ur blue and think that nobody loves U
When Ur down and wear sorrow on Ur head like a crown
When everything feels cold and the pain in U begins 2 unfold
When misery is affecting Ur health and U feel like fucking killing Urself dead

What is the best Prince song 2 lift Ur spirits hmmm

I have 2 go with 'Free' from the 1999 Album.
It just get's me all soothed and makes me realise that 'there's many a man who's not' as well off as me neutral

I would have to say "Uptown" or even "Erotic City". They, at least, work for my ass!!!

Endorphinmachine does it for me. I just feed off the energy. Also Christopher Tracy's Parade for a winter's day and Glam Slam for a summer's day. Used to be Raspberry Beret but I'm a bit bored with it now after a trillion listens!

Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

umm let's see:

Anna Stesia does it for me most of the time
Condition of the Heart
Sometimes It Snows in April
How Come U don't Call Me Anymore

I know some of these are depressing songs as is, why play them if u are already depressed? well like the doctor says, you can't fight a cold without a little bacteria in the medicine, so i fight my sad feelings with sad songs...get it?
I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

Me too! Rasberry Beret will work too. Actually listening to just about any Prince song will usually work because he makes me happy! biggrin

PARADE in general. The instruments and lyrics on that cd just put me in a better mood. Kiss is as good for me as it was for Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman!

a friend of mine (not at all a Prince fan) was having a
bit of bad LSD trip once,
so we played Play In The Sunshine for him and he was
all uphill from there. biggrin To this day he credits that song
for helping him out.

How do you like that full-length version of "Good Love" on the Camille album? wink
