Prince songs that may have not been played live.....ever?

I was curious if there have been some songs which may be fan favorites and yet for whatever reasons (perhaps a song was too personal in nature) Prince has chosen never to perform it live?

Songs I'm specifically curious about:

- " eye Love U, but eye Don't Trust U Anymore"
- "Tamborine"
- "Hello"

It shows you how many great songs the man has done that he can't fit a song as good as ' I Love U, but I Don't Trust U Anymore' into the set list!

For many artists this would be the stand out track!! smile

He played Tambourine (briefly) at the ONA aftershow at The Marquee in London.

He definitely has played "Eye Love U, But Eye Don't Trust U Anymore"... ONA tour, during some of the piano sets.

How about stuff from the Old Friends 4 Sale album? 5 Women?

He played it live on almost every aftershow and a lot of rehearsals and even some concerts
on the One Nite Alone tour.

In fact, he's always played that on and off at his tours or aftershows. It sounds cool live.
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

I Love U in me was played at the Wembley Arena in 94-95 (can't quite remeber). It was one of those concerts that started of with a "burial" of Prince and the birth of the non-pronouncable name/symbol. If I remeber correctly it was in fact one of the only old-Prince songs that he played.

Part of the instrumentation (horn section) ended up as a bridge between When Doves Cry and Purple Rain on the SOTT tour.

I think it is The Ball you are refering to, which was played at an Austrian (?) aftershow in 87 or 88 and often gets wrongly credited as The Crystal Ball.

If it HAS been played I would like to know when and where.
