I saw Prince cover "If You Only Knew" at a Paisley concert but the funny thing is that he didn't know who sung it and Patti is his friend lol

Whats Going On
Just My Imagination
Sweet Thing
Lets Stay Together
Lets Get It On

Prince has respect for old school sop I think he woudl put his heart into these.

If I could get him to recover one of his own it woudl be Nothing Compares 2U...do it properly in the studio, without Rosie...make it the lonely song that its meant to be

Coconut - Harry Neilson?

Superstition - Stevie

Soft and Wet - yes I know it's his...but it would sound tight updated. And it's tame enuff for him to handle.

Straigt Cold Player - Lenny

Green Onion's - Booker T & the MG's
