Did Prince Write Every Song on Martika's Kitchen? I know he wrote Martika's Kitchen and Love Thy Will Be Done, but did he have a hand in writing the other tracks? Just curious. | |

Also from these sessions came one of the greatest outtakes of his career - Open Book - a song developed from Martika's song Safe In The Arms of Love (many of the lyrics are repeated almost exactly), a song he eventually gave to Jevetta Steele, but the original Prince version is awesome! | |

Love Thy Will Be Done being one of Prince's finest compositions, IMO. |

He didn't write "Spirit". That was Levi Seacer Jr. who also produced it.
'dre Tried many flavours - but sooner or later, always go back to the Purple Kool-aid!

'dre Actually, Spirit is credited to Prince/Frankie Blue/Martika AND Levi Seacer Jr, I just didn't mention the others in the same sense I didn't mention Love... Thy Will Be Done and Don't Say U Love Me are credited to Prince AND Martika. | |

Probably had a hand in them all, she disappeared after that set. U know what Prince is like, he wants to do everything, but occasionally says the artist concerned did it, as he dosent want to steal their thunder (a well known example being Sheila E)
And yes Love thy will be done is one of his best songs, for himself or someone else. 17 Years ago I made a commitment to Prince | |
