I'm gonna say his outdoor performance at the Today show. When he did Zanalee he just blew me away. His guitar playing was Awesome.

SNL 15th anniversary show "Electric Chair" mmm...

Eye really dont have a favorite eye luv them all!

THE QUESTION OF U-jAPAN

I'd say "Gett Off" @ the VMA's.

Both performances on The Arsenio Hall Show

Vash, that's a good one. I like his performance of "The Holy River" and "Somebody's Somebody" on the Rosie show.

It has to be Electric Chair...The man was on point! I watched it again the other day & it was just as cool now as it was back in the day...Aloha~

Does anyone have his SNL performance of Electric CHair as a quicktime or mpeg,etc. If so, could you be gracious and send it my way? Please send it to my email ambercara@comcast.net

I also think this was one of his best TV performances. Very energetic production. Fans blowing his long hair. It is definetely the best performance I have ever seen on SNL.

Though I am partial to his performance of Dolphin on David Letterman Show. He performed it just like the video, and fell back into Mayte's angelic arms in the end, as she fanned him. Sweeter than fruit.

If anyone has the Dolphin performance I would be very pleased if you would share?? I have many mpeg performances to share, but can't seem to ever find these 2.

I'd say on 1998-ish.. The Tonight Show "Come On" !!

I was there at the Today Show when he did "Zanalee" & it was awesome but I have to go with a true classic:
"Purple Rain" on the 1984 American Music Awards.
He had America in the palm of his hand that year & it was just exciting as hell watching it live on TV. Especially when he kicked the mic stand over during the guitar solo.

"Sign O The Times" Live back in 87 on MTV Video Music Awards.Slammin" IMHO

I saw him once at Letterman. I think with 'dinner with Dolores'.
David said here is TAFKAP ,prince playd and after ,immediatly he stood up and left. Suprising David.
He had slave written on his cheek.
