Did Prince play 4 songs on SNL?

On Tamar's site in the knowledge/news section it says that she and Prince played four songs on the Feb. 4th episode of SNL. What were the other two?

they must have meant: "Pary Up" in 1981 and "Electric Chair" in 1989 (but that wasn;t really SNL it was a SNL prime time anniversery show)

Well SNL does a full dress rehearsal show right before the live show airs. So I wouldn't be surprised if Prince played two different songs then and then live played the two tracks we heard.

That being said I would pay money to hear the rehearsal tracks!!!

Peace

I did hear that "Black Sweat" was expected to be played instead of "Fury," that's probably one of them.

If the artist who is on SNL wishes, they are alowed to play to the audence while SNL is off to break. Chances are good, this is the case.
News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so.
You have those internalized issues because you want to, you like to, stop.
