OK so Prince says he's gonna perform 150 songs throughout his 21 night stay in London. Now we all have 300 songs we want hi to perform, but what are the tracks you really hope he plays when you attend.

Im due to see the man tomorrow night (Aug 7th) after 5 long years of waiting. I last saw him perform at the Manchester apollo in October (!?!) 2002, and that night he treated me (yes me and me alone) to a mind blowing 10 minute version of Purple Rain, The Ladder, and Empty Room among other gems. This time around i really wanna hear.....

A Love Bizare
Love Thy Will Be Done (Such a good live song....how can he have not played this in 12 years???)
When U Were Mine (my favourite all time prince song)
Do Me Baby
Endorphin Machine
Mutiny
Girls & Boys
I Could Never Take The Place Of Your Man
Housequake
Its Gonna Be A Beautiful night (Will he ever rediscover this one....i love it)
Adore (Full length version -not as part of a medley)
Fury
The 1 U Wanna C (Im obsessed with this song right now. Cant get enough of it)

This may seem strange, but I hope he plays U Got The Look and I Feel For You again tonight.

I left the concert on 1st August with both these songs running through my head. I've heard them millions of times and have some live versions of both and they are not my favourite Prince songs.....but I loved hearing them live!

On piano like the omnibus telly programme back in the day!

I'd like housequake, days of wild (with the swearing - not gonna happen), come (not gonna happen, but maybe a clean version), Don't Play Me (aftershow maybe), Love thy will be done (he played this at the Astoria aftershow), I could go on....

I love so many your never gonna get the ones you want played look how many albums his had. The best thing to do is judge him on performance not song choice.

Peach rocked Friday night....a chance to crank up that guitar.

In what I consider was a slight shame of a night - only due to the length of the gig and imho an inferior set list compared to the opening night, it was things like Peach that got me going.

I should point out that I still rate Friday night as the best in my life, you know, before I get flamed!

I am going to catch another gig in an effort to hear more songs!!
