I'm thinking of scrapping Come On

I would also get rid of "Come On," but you seem to be missing a few songs...

P. Control
319
Come
Race
Interactive

You can use the radio edits for Holy River &/Or Gold... this

will buy you enough time for beautiful...

You could also use a remix of COME ON to save some more time...

r/f

It should be an EP.

Obviously, get rid of Betcha by golly wow.

Why on earth would you want a poorly done remake?

It's all very ballad-heavy IMO.
(Though it is kinda unavoidable to a certain extent due to the singles released)
Personally I'd get rid of 'Into The Light' and 'I Will' and to be picky, 'The One'
'Come On' and 'Wasted Kisses' are all NPG tracks, not

Lets not go through all that again Mr. Fishpaw. I know they are NPG but I'm putting them in as appears courtesy of warner bros. It says that on Exodus as well when he attempted to appear as Tora Tora with the big red mask. Those 3 NPG tracks are too good to leave out. I've changed my mind actually and am putting Come On back in and leaving out the two Boris' mentioned. It's my own decision, I'm not allowing Boris to brainwash me but he knows his stuff so I'm glad he agrees.

Well, as others have suggested, you could use single edits and save yourself several minutes. That seems especially appropriate since you're including all of 's singles. Use the shortened versions that actually got (minimal!) airplay!

Get Wild was a single (by the NPG, admittedly, but this doesn't seem to matter to you), so by the same criteria as Come On, it should be on disc one. Of course, there's also TGRES, Count The Days... Basically, it's all subjective unless you use the artist name or single-status as criteria.

Get Wild is only on disc 2 cos thats the side for the banging shitass. Side 1 is reserved for the cream of . The only rule I imposed was that all of his solo top 40 singles be included. TGRES only made it to no.65. The Good Life went to no.15 but its off an npg album so doesnt have to be included and its not even him singing, same goes for Count the days (lovely track though). At least he performs in the video for get wild under the Tora Tora disguise.

Anyhow that Ultimate album was very inconsistant with where they put stuff I thought. And if I'm totally honest I first made disc 2 as a soundtrack to my starting running. A further best of album came up as an afterthought. But still I think the 33 tracks selected represent a nice spectrum of the qualities of Prince as .

Any reason why U skipped over the TRUTH??

Cos of the subliminal message "don't play me". It didn't have any hit singles and although as a package the album is very nice I felt none of the tracks were strong enough to merit inclusion on disc 1 and they certainly weren't wild enough to merit inclusion on disc 2.
