Help make a Prince mixtape for non-believer I've got a sceptic friend who thinks Prince ain't nothing. I want to prove her wrong. What songs will blow her away?! Animal Kingdom and Freaks On This Side probably won't cut it. Here's what I got so far:
I Wanna Be Your Lover When U Were Mine DMSR When Doves Cry Raspberry Beret Anotherloverholenyohead Housequake If I was Your Girlfriend The Question of U Thieves in the Temple Batdance Diamonds and Pearls Gett Off Dark Eye Hate U I Like it There White Mansion Joint 2 Joint ...and then I sort of lose interest myself Let the rain come down | |

i think that list might b a little 2 mainstream....
i have found that when i convert folks it's best 2 make a cd of the stuff U like MOST... maybe make a cd of the hits... and then make a cd where u take a track off each album that U like and then tell ur friend that THIS is why u like Prince... [Edited 4/12/05 6:44am] | |

"Batdance"?!?
That's like giving out "The Origin Of Species" to an atheist in order to try to convince them to believe in God. | |

Off the top of my head I would include...
Adore Insatiable Head Bob George Movie Star I Feel 4 U Little Red Corvette 17 Days She's Always In My Hair Let's Go Crazy Strange Relationship or u could do what MidnightFunk said, a CD of his most popular and a CD of ur favs but throw in some his better unreleased material since Prince is well known 4 his bootlegs 2. | |

Right. People forcing their music on you sucks. |

People either feel it.. or they don't. Just my  "There comes a road in every man's journey that he's afraid to walk on his own.
I'm here to tell you, I'm at that road. And I would rather walk it with you than walk it alone". | |

Just give 'em "Purple Rain" (full album) but mix "little Red Corvette", "Raspberry Beret", "1999", and "Kiss" in somewhere (they'll think they're all from the same album). Then don't expect 'em to venture any further seeing that Toby Keith and Usher will probably take up too much of their new music time.
Oops....Sorry about this post. I mis-interpreted the topic. Therefore this post is irrelevant [Edited 4/13/05 8:41am]  [Edited 4/14/05 9:17am] "Life is just a party and parties weren't meant to last"

The only thing you need is the Sign of The Times album!
Ive shut a few people up by sending them that and they have gone on to buy other albums. I know its a little old but its a really good style which is still being coppied in todays music so its not too alien to them like some of princes other albums. From there they couldnt go wrong with musicology and then just fill in the blanks if they want more of his older of newer material  | |
