gets my vote from that album, but if we're going literal I have to agree with the raft of you that voted for "Computer Blue". There was a bunch for my other favorite "The Beautiful Ones" Not so much as a bad note on that record or any of the b-sides for that matter.

Can't you just accomplish anything after listening to Baby, I'm a Star? It would have to be between that and the full length Computer Blue (does that count?).

The Whole Album, any B-side and unreleased track was the best. But I have a fondness for Purple Rain and When Doves Cry cause those were the songs that made me love Prince.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

COMPUTER BLUE next to the Beautiful Ones...True genius. The emotion he sang with on these songs...is truly amazing...and something thats missing from his music today.

Purple Rain, followed by Beautiful Ones. Such a brilliant album though, each song is as good in its own right as the other.

The Beautiful Ones is an interesting choice. Of course it's perfect on the LP, but I've seen videos of the Purple Rain tour and sometimes this song would lose its power when performed live.

The screaming in the song probably took a toll on his voice at that time.

It's a great song, I'm just saying that it could song very different when performed live.

Beautiful Ones : starts off as a slow sweet ballad.. then turns into a hard rock ending!!

how can you not pick that!!

computer blue is a great close second.
