I'd have to say "If eye was the man in your life." I love that song. I think people will be talking about it in years to come. | |

She Loves Me 4 Me
Call My Name Reflection S'bout it. 1+1+1=3 starts brilliantly, but for me it just turns into one of those generic Larry Graham-inspired live jams. Boring Green virgin teenager, or filthy rich yuppy. Pussy cat pussy cat, where for out thou puppy |

Seriously, there are few, if any classics past 2000.
If anything, Reflection could be. Maybe Tangerine, So Far So Pleased,Baby Knows, Family Name ... in some ways all these reflect a quintessential aspect of Prince. But without exposure can a song grow into a classic. Most stuff now will likely just fade into obscurity and get no respect ... and when he's 70 on tour he won't play them, just go back to Take me With YOu and Baby I'm a star. Some of the songs named here just echo old classics (call my name, million days... these are ghosts of past hit songs, not some original sound. But that could be said for some of the ones I've chosen too). I guess we'll just have to see how kind and redeeming time is to these latest songs. | |

it's gotta be a hit before it's classic anyway -- otherwise it's just a gem to the few who know | |
