What's a woman to do? ( Violet Blue)

Beautiful, isn't it? This one doesn't sound like a leftover from the vault but like Prince wrote this song especially for Jill. Too bad their friendship/ collaboration didn't last.

"Violet Blue" is one of the standout tracks on this project to me. I really like this one.

Anx said it correctly, and for the longest time "Violet Blue" was my fav on the album for just that reason.

She even did justice to "All Day All Night." Jill was truly among the cherished few Paisley Park artists who really had it together.

It is a brilliant moment.

You know what's so great about Violet Blue - You could play it to anyone, and they would never guess it was Prince - it sounds NOTHING like him at all - Shows his breadthe.

maybe that's a topic for the associates forum but the song is beautiful. One of the underrated / forgotten classics.

In particularly I love the beginning. Listen to the first seconds. Great production work.

Me too, even though I had it on vinyl at one time, as well, but I'm fine with just being able to listen to it whenever I want to. Although, it would be nice to have it on CD.

"Violet Blue" is definitely a standout on this excellent album. "My Man" is my personal all time favorite track, though.
