GOODBYE...WONDERFUL

Guys..theres this song which is worth the mention on crystal ball..the song called goodbye...terrific song..very sad lyrics..and a prince did it really well..definitley one of my favs in that album alongside "crucial"...no ones talked about this song before..am i the only one here who likes "goodbye"?..

i love the way he says " excuse me..but if its really...goodbye..last night when i left u were fast asleep..y did i let u inside my door".i love the way he says those lines... lol

It's pretty schmaltzy, but Prince can knock out these ballads in his sleep, and they always sound OK.

Yeah, a friend of mine felt that it was just another syrupy ballad.
I do agree that songs like this appear to come easy to Prince, but that does not mean they are not beautiful! After all, I don't see just anybody writing songs as nice as this. I loved "Goodbye" the moment I first heard it.

It's a good song. I like it a lot. In fact, reading this post,
I'm gonna have to dig up crystal ball when I get home later &
give it another spin.

Heck, it's better than a few tracks that DID make Emancipation
in the end.

music
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

"Goodbye" is a very underrated Prince ballad and one of his very best songs ever.

A neglected classic, many a soul debutante would kill in order to dream up something of the calibre of "Goodbye".

I love this ballad. Easily one of my favorites. His delivery is on point and I can't imagine many others that could have sounded as sincere.

Goodbye is a great song. I wish it had been on Emancipation. It's also one of the few songs that have made me emotional. It's simply a beautiful song. In fact, a friend of mine who doesn't care much for Prince really likes this song.

I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

One of my favorite Prince ballads. The blend of falsetto works well.

Glad I'm not the only one who loves this track... beautiful, beautiful song touched

Easily one of the best outtakes from the 'Emancipation' sessions.
