no, im not trying to say that..im thinking more along the lines of this being a really really subjective request and that you could possibly get 50 people posting with 50 different songs listed.



but i'll say mountains, sometimes it snows in april, rasberry beret and around the world in a day sound to me heavily influenced by wendy and lisa.

and just for note: wendy commented that prince wrote all of rasberry beret by himself so im not saying these are songs that wendy and lisa collaborated on..just that their style was an influence.

sosgemini said:

Pop Life (best example), Mountains, Around The World In A Day, Kiss, Sometimes It Snows In April, Purple Rain, Take Me With U, Tamborine, Raspberry Beret,

I hear Tamborine and hear all prince...

You're right sos.....

Tamborine is all Prince. I had a brain-fart.

Wrong. Kiss is a Prince one no doubt.

Here's What I thing some that was mostly done by Prince
When Doves Cry
Let's go Crazy
Beautiful Ones
I would Die 4 u/Baby I'm a Star both
Pop Life
Kiss
Condition Heart
Girls and Boys
Anotherloverholeninyohead
Raspberry Beret
Paisley Park
Take Me With U with Lisa contribute heavily

And now for Lisa and Wendy
17 Days
Mountains
Purple Rain
Do U Lie
Sometimes it snow in April

I already agree with dewalliz's post.

"Pop Life" might be more of a W&L song though.

I thought Wendy and Lisa had nothing to do with the forming of the 'Purple Rain' single...

watch the purple rain dvd extras....

sosgemini said:

I did, but didn't they say "Wendy and Lisa DID NOT make Purple Rain?"

FrancerulzV99 said:

but that they helped out. they commented years prior that they had more involvement in making purple rain then they did computer blue for which they got songwriting credit...

you think we are confused? think about how confused they are....

keep going

sosgemini said:

Yes Prince wrote Raspberry Beret but the girls composed the strings for the song. Now, in your head, take out the strings and I think it's okay to say that the song is a Wendy and Lisaesque track.

I would also add Power Fantastic, No Light in a Large Room, In All My Dreams to the Wendy and Lisa list.

WonderU said:

I don't know about Power Fantastic, but I can "hear" what you mean in the latter two.

CinisterCee said:

Well I would hope you would "know" about Power Fantastic since it was based on a song called Carousel that Lisa had composed. The piano in that song is haunting and knowing that they nailed it in one take is amazing.

yeah...Carousel was a wendy & lisa thang....

I mean I never listen to it. I end the B-Sides disc after "How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore".
