Name 10 Prince Tracks he should have kept for himself

The title pretty much says it all....We all know that Prince has written & produced tons of songs for others, but which ten do you think he should have kept for himself?

Ah, you're right. I had forgotten it was released on The Vault because of the horns and additional instruments. I just tried to listen to it and couldn't make it through. Now I remember skipping it when I first got the album. I've been listening to the demo for years and years, and I guess I've been subconsciously ignoring the official release.

For the record, I've never been able to listed to Joe Cocker's version all the way through either.

The Stick would have been great on the "Controversy" lp or as a Bside

Wild and Loose on the 1999 lp in place of All The Critics

Sugar Walls

The Glamorous Life

All Day, All Night

The Screams of Passion

lol That's all I got.

I'm sick and tired of the Prince fans being sick and tired of the Prince fans that are sick and tired!

Prince singing Sugar Walls would have been, erm, interesting... lol

And no-one could have done The Glamorous Life better than Miss E, it would not have been as good without her percussion!

Just like the white winged dove...

Love thy will be done _YES! Surprisingly some of the ones people mention I think are better by the artists who did them. In some cases I've heard his versions and they were just ok. BUT this one - HE made this song incredible. Also Open Book and Train..same deal. His were perfect and he threw them away. It's a shame.

Some of the Time ones he pretty much DID do since his voice is all over it except Morris' lead. lol
