The overview is devided in three categories: Prince songs, Unreleased Songs and cover songs.

It includes songs from June 27 until now, the survey includes soundchecks and aftershows.

The song are displayed randomly, maybe i'll sort them later on in a specific sequence.

A fourth categorie ‘W2A: American tour leg’ is not counted with the total number of songs, but is also displayed here. (in the making, will be posted later on)

Please let me now if something needs to be edited, I’ll keep the list updated as more shows sceduled this summer.

(There was one song from the ‘Come’ album performed during the W2A tour, which one? and where?)

Currently: 95 different songs have been played yet.

70 Prince songs (63 + 7)

25 cover songs

I would argue that if the song was played over the PA during the "Sampler" set, that it doesn't count. Nobody has to rehearse for Karaoke. In fact, if less than 2 min of any song is played, that is just a short cut.

Sign ‘O’ The Times was live in Ghent on 6 July, wasn't it?

well the vocals were, the music wasn't :p

Crimson... Tommy James?

In fairness if you mean it's a cover.. I effectively called it hearing a Prince song at the Poland show as he's done a studio version

Move to Covers:

A Case of U

Crimson & Clover

Plus, has always been a big question mark over who wrote Jungle Love (Jesse Johnson) and Mountains (Wendy & Lisa).

I don't think any sample set or snippet (like piano medleys) can't count as a full song.

Sampler Set is not live so it doesn't count

I know what u mean but you can argue that it is a tool/instrument played live by prince as performance

(I wouldn't be satisfied though)

Thank you all for commenting.

'Crimson & Clover' and 'A Case Of U' are now considered as cover songs.

The songs from the sampler set are displayed, but not counted.

In Montreal he also did a cover (well, Shelby did) of Janet Jackson's WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR ME LATELY.

Thank U! I have updated the list again .

Only want to look at the Euro shows , but thanx for noticing

Another update.

I really needed to update after the Melkweg shows, I really feel sick not being in Rotterdam right now

All that glitter and gold!

This tour seems to get more and more awesome each and every show.

Was Song of the Heart on your list? He did it at his Helsinki gig.

Not one of my favorites, though. I almost forget that one myself, even I was present when he did it.

I like this. thanks Trashcat.

Thanx Remko, I've sorted the songs today.... it really looks nice now

Thanks a lot for compiling this list.

Does anyone know the name of the song that was played as a bridge between Joy In Repetition and The Love We Make on the Saturday at the NSJ (the second show)? Prince mentions something like 'nothing more' and Andy sings... or isn't that a song but alternative lyrics to the beat of The Love We Make?
