I really like "101." Chaka has a much better version of "Eternity." nod

Sugar Walls. The 12" is a gem.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

True.

The Prince remix of 101 starts with a sample of the SOTT tour opener; his searing guitar...

Sugar Walls, hands down.

Sugar Walls is my fave, particularly the ext. version.

101 is also wonderful: best "my heart is broken" Prince song ever, such emotional violence in it!

I like Sheena's version of Eternity way better than Chaka's.

Speaking of "Cool Love," I absolutely love the guitar breakdown Prince does right before the solo. Just figured out the fingering. woot!

It's mine now... whistling

Those aren't the only songs written for her. What about 'Lover Come Back'?

[b]Those are the only recorded songs written for Sheena Easton by Prince. Sheena and Prince co-wrote the songs. "The Arms of Orion", "La la la Hee Hee Hee", "Love '89".

I am an authority (self-appointed) on Sheena Easton.

Sorry, I had the title wrong. The actual title was "COME BACK 2 ME" a track that Prince recorded for/with Sheena Easton. It was recorded on Thursday September 29, 1988 at Paisley Park.

Hope that clears that up.

It clears it up but leaves the door wide open.....

Is this song available anywhere? It doesn't appear on any of Sheena Easton's recordings. I realize there are songs that are recorded that never make it to pressing.

Please reply!!!

I favs are:

2. Sugar walls (Still is a hit 20 years later).
3. Cool Love.

101
Sugar Walls

"101" is one of the best 'dark' Prince-penned songs ever.

101 is great. I actually bought a Sheena Eason CD just to get that song. And there is no Prince remix of the song as mentioned earlier in this thread
