If Prince and the Revolution toured, what songs do you want them to play?

I know it highly unlikely but use your imagination. I'm sure Mountains,Anotherloverholenyohead,17 Days and songs from the infamous Roadhouse Garden will be popular answers but what about songs like Strange Relationship, In This Bed I Scream or Dream Factory?

Strange Relationship for sure! But I would want him to play all the songs that have never been played live before, or have been played live but have't been played that much at all (Bambi). I'd love to hear just him and his guitar all might long though, that would be good. It doesn't matter if it was his song or not. If it wasn't and he played it, it would automatically become his so it doesn't make any difference. But over and all....I'd just love to see him play the "Forgotten" songs for us.....that would be cool.

I'd wanna hear raspberry Beret and Paisley Park, because I love Wendy's and Lisa's voices on them. Then, a bunch of obvious hit material, and some unreleased stuff -- All Day, All Night for sure -- then some of his post-Revolution material, and some of W&L's non-Prince stuff.
let me come over it's a beautiful day to play with you in the dark

Here's my set list for this DREAM TOUR:

1.Sexuality
2.Pop Life
3.Dorothy Parker
4.The Beautiful Ones
5.Little Red Corvette(12 inch version please!)
6.When Doves Cry
7.Piano Section: Electric Intercourse, Crazy You, Free, How Come You Don't Call, When 2 R In Love, Take Me With U, Condition Of The Heart, and With You
8.When You Were Mine
9.Raspberry Beret
10.Lady Cab Driver
11.Adore
12.Kiss/Love Or Money Mix
13.Purple Rain

Encore #1 - Controversy
Encore #2 - Soft And Wet
Encore #3 - Let's Go Crazy

I have one of the shows from the Controversy 1981 leg of the tour where they open the show with Sexuality, it seemed like a perfect opener. I ended up getting another show from that tour and they opened up with Uptown, according to the D.M.S.R. book that was the normal order so I guess I'm lucky to own a copy where Sexuality is played first. From what I read Sexuality was rarely played on that tour after the first month, maybe the crowds weren't feelin it?

I think they should release "The Sex Of It" in an updated r&b version (keeping the horns).
