His "If I Was" songs are some of the best he's ever done... so I'll go with:
If I Was Your Girlfriend | |

Phunk said: PurpleKnight said: I agree that Adore is easily the most definitive and moving song off SOTT, but I totally disagree with you about ppl not really loving SOTT passionately. I happen to absolutely love it to death, I think it's an amazing pop song with a lot of meaning. Musically, I think it's really unique sounding and addictive in its own simple way. PurpleKnight (nice name by the way): Thanks for replying. I was beginning to think SOTT slipped through the cracks. I absolutely love his recent live versions of the song where he does that blistering guitar solo at the end...but the album version? You really dig the album version? -phunk Yeah, I think the album version has a real reserved frustration and sombreness to it. It sounds like an attentive stroll through a broken down neighborhood to me. The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

SOTT is a great tune and I'm glad it came down to those two songs but If I Was Your Girlfriend should win!!
To me it embodies everything that's great about the little man. It's experimental, it features varispeeded vocals (lead vocals speeded up, background vocals slowed down). It's wonderfully gender bending!! Only Prince could have created it noone else would have got away with it!

'SOTT' has shocked me and, I think, many others by remaining in the competition for so long. The song is great but is it anywhere near as good as Dorothy, or Strange Relationship, or Adore?
Anyway the answer is obvious - my winner is IF I WAS YOUR GIRLFRIEND "How embarrasing to be human!"

Of course I think the best song on the album is The cross, followed by ICNTTPOYM, but of these two, If I was your girlfriend is definitely the lesser | |

If I Was Your Girlfriend.... for its distinctiveness and it's demonstration of his knowledge of women.. Come here, babe.. yeah... | |

Sign 'O' the Times is the clear winner.
Sorry Girlfriend... Ooh, little darlin' if you're
free 4 a couple of hours (Free 4 a couple of hours) If U ain't busy 4 the next 7 years (Next 7 years) Say, let's pretend we're married and go all night | |

This is so hard!!! 
I do love Girlfriend a lot, but I'll go with SOTT!  Everytime I comb my hair
Thoughts of you get in my eyes... Vous etes tres belle... | |

Can't believe we lost DP. Now the better song is, oh I don't know, SOTT I guess "We've never been able to pull off a funk number"
"That's becuase we're soulless auttomatons" | |

It should be SOTT vs. HOUSEQUAKE!
So, although IIWYG is clearly going to win, the better song out of the two is..... (in my opinion) SIGN O' THE TIMES It's goin' down y'all.
Like the wall o' Berlin! | |

SOTT..... to win. [Edited 2/23/05 17:29pm] "Did u love somebody
But got no love in return? Did u understand the real meaning of love? That it just is and never yearns" ...Prince | |

Well, well, well...look what we have come to  ...tsk, tsk,  no Adore, no ICNTTPOYM in the Survivor round...I have emotions that I cannot express right now  ...
So, I will move on to the obvious ...I really like both...but my vote is for SOTT as champion ...more for sentimental reasons, because of the social commentary and how it fit with my life at the time. | |

"SIGN O' THE TIMES" has the rare combination of powerful message and innovative musical approach that edges out a great song like "If I Was Your Girlfriend.''
My pick : SIGN O' THE TIMES. | |
