Prince's Final Four of Slow Jams!

I'm on a slow jams kick. What's Prince's Final Four in your opinion? The top 4 slow jams Prince has ever done?

These are my picks, although there are quite a few that just missed the cut.


Adore
Pink Cashmere
The Beautiful Ones
Friend, Lover, Sister, Mother/Wife.


What are your top 4?
The public is squeezin' you kiddo. You'd better kick ass on your next album or else!

Somebody on here sometime back (think it was Binaryjustin) created a faux-slow jams set/compilation (with cover an' all) that was sublime and kick ass. Wish someone knew where that thread was! I'll see if I can dig it up, just don't hold yer breath. lol

Mine:

Insatiable

Scandalous

Damn U

joy in repetition (u can't tell me r. kelly's "imagine that" wasn't at least partially inspired by this classic....)

It's true - I did! Oddly enough, I've spent the entire morning, looking through a load of unlabelled CDRs to try and find some archived stuff - but I didn't come across the Prince slow-jams compilation - but then again, I wasn't really looking for it, I was looking for a Kylie compilation...

I'll see if I can find it again later. It was called "Slow Love: A Collection of After-Dark Jams".

I need to have breakfast and shower, clean-around and stuff, but I'll definitely look for it later today.
