speaking of the MTV- STORYTELLERS UNPLUGGED thing...THE BEST TRACKLIST

I read a thread about Prince doing an unplugged session on MTV or STORYTELLERS.

What do you thing would be the best track list for Prince to performe??

Remember his discography is vast and not all the songs would sound that great with acoustic (yup, ONLY ACOUSTIC) instruments...

Rules: 10 album songs
+ 2 B-sides
+ 1 unreleased song (may have been released by another artist, but not by Prince).

No songs from THE TRUTH album... since... this is acoustic of course
.

My tracklist:


1.- Crazy you
2.- 7
3.- The Ballad of Dorothy Parker
4.- Anna Stesia
5.- Dreaming Bout U (very jazzy...)
6.- 5 women
7.- When doves cry
8.- Get off
9.- The ride
10.- God created woman
11.- 17 days (B side)
12.- Shockadelica (B-side)
13.- 101 (Sheena Easton release)

WHAT ABOUT YOU?????

Peace

i like a lot of your picks, especially that 1st one -- it made me smile. if he was doing this for mtv or vh-1, i'd think he'd want to include more "hits" -- but if he was to take this on tour, i'd like to see a lot more songs from his first two albums

my unreleased pick would be: the grand progression
b-side1: how come u don't call me anymore
b-side2: 17 days

I haven't seen it in a long time or mtv unplugged for that matter. sad
I wish they would bring some of those shows back.

But got no love in return?
Did u understand the real meaning of love?
That it just is and never yearns"

If none of you guys don't like "MY LIST" , go and shove it!!!
Make up your own list!

The Title ask(s) what each person would like for their own personal story tellers!
I made "MY OWN LIST", so if your tired of 'Purple Rain', then leave before the show ends...

Shut Up!

OOOH..who pissed in your Christmas stocking?? Ease up Sugar...no one is picking on you. YOUR OWN LIST is all good, even if you are still living in '84.
