Random tour songs

Is it just me or would you love to see Prince perform some random songs that you think you may never see Prince do live? I would love if half the way through he launched into "I wanna melt with u" followed by a rocky "Loose". Its never gonna happen but i got a morbid curiosity to see em performed live! Anyone else with me?

i want a show just like the ONA tour ..if they r going 2 b old songs, let them them b the songs he's never done live b4 instead of the boring hits shows he's been doing.

but overall, i would like him 2 return 2 the form of foucsing on his latest album and a sprinkle of past glory
man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81

what's the difference of seeing him in person doing the hits if u already have heard them through different avenues? it's about the music in the end.

I'm completely with you!

I would love him to do the hits, but throw in three out there hardcore tracks per show. Its enough to keep us hardcore happy, and few enough to not distract the cash making casuals.

First up, I'd love him to throw in

There are SO many random songs that I would just die if he played. I know that most people who are going to the O2 want to hear the hits and that's fair enough, but my ideal setlist wouldn't contain many hits at all. If he played 'And God Created Woman' I'd probably pass out, or 'Wasted kisses'. What would I like to hear most of all ....too difficult to say..but Days of Wild would have to be in there somewhere. Wave the wild sign high y'all.... biggrin

Could there be a significant reason why he wont play the full songs live? Maybe against his religous belief?
im not sure, help me out here..

I know damn well he will not play one of my favs, GLAM SLAM..oh well..perrish the thought!!

Sadly the songs I most wanna hear are the ones I doubt he performs these days... Gett Off (oh wow, imagine that guitar riff blasting all around the O2!!), Sexy MF, Erotic City...

I agree that some totally random songs would be great! I'll never forget when he did I Love U In Me at Wembley Arena ten-ish years or so ago...

How about Paisley Park, Play In The Sunshine, LOVESEXY...

Hmmmm... Less obscure, but I'd really love to hear a full-on version of Housequake on this tour. C'mon, it'd be great!
