Prince's Worst Ballad IMHO, "Diamonds and Pearls". "Dogshit and Pearls", more like. Crap lyrics, corny melody, constipated guitar...he's written some of the greatest ballads of all time, but this ain't one of them....

I can't agree. I know a little bit about music so check this out in the song: The bass line and the drums play 2gether. What I mean is that the drummer almost plays the same rhythm as the bass player. | |

I dunno, I've always liked Diamonds and Pearls. The lyrics are bland, but that don't affect the song too much IMO. One of the many good Prince hits, definately. | |

Hmm im not sure but he has got some bad one's. I would probably say adore is one of his worst just cause it's so overrated, and that makes it more annoying. "Man, the living creature, the creating individual, is always more important than any established style or system" - Bruce Lee | |

Extraordinary
I can't even remember what it sounds like past the awful "EX....straw....DIN....eeeerry" of the first line. I've also never really liked Insatiable either. | |

WHAT!? Forever In My Life is a GREAT wedding song! That's the shit right there! "But what of black women? . . . I most sincerely doubt if any other race of women could have brought its fineness up through so devilish a fire." -- W.E.B. Du Bois -- | |

Arms Of Orion--no controversy here.
The other picks are pathetic. Prince is usually at his best, ballad wise. All you others say Hell Yea!!  | |

Without a doubt, Slow Love, followed by that Lionel Richie-flavored Arms of Orion. | |

I love Diamonds and Pearls, it's one of my fave Prince songs. I don't really like Adore. It's a bit too boring for me. | |

The Arms of Orion. This song sucks! The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

Adore boring? It's too slow and old school for me. I mostly prefer modern(ish) music, 80's and onwards. I'm a modernaire just like ol' Dez. | |
