PAISLEY Park

Maybe you don't know, but there is a reason Prince named his recording studio this.

Akin to the beloved Graceland, Paisley Park is the home to many great recording artists, REM and others included. Prince fights the industry and loads artists with ammunition to battle the cause.

Paisley Park is arguably his best work, and perhaps the best song ever created!!!!!

Whatever...

I guess a song which combines the best of the 60s with the best of R&B with the best of Rock at once should be forgetten as it is. not. Prince won't play it and it doesn't deserve to be played.

It is such a great song, it should be recorded once and not be whored around the world year after year.

Paisley Park: "Who ever said that elephants were stronger than mules?" -Prince

Might have been written awhile ago, but its ahead of it's time and ahead of Prince's beliefs.

Prince does play it - but not often.

Actually, just kidding on the greatest part. But, I would put it in the top 10 of his music.

Paisley Park is a nice song, although 'the best song ever created' may be a stretch. I like the song, and (I know someone is going to shoot me for saying this but) for some reason it reminds me of 'Stairway to Heaven' boxed . I think it's because the "lady who's sure all that glitters is gold" reminds me of the "woman who sits all alone by the pier".
