Is Comeback Prince's saddest song?

I love the song so much, but Comeback is so sad because I believe it is written about Prince's son:

Walking up the stairs Thursday afternoon
Sweet wind blew not a moment 2 soon
Ooh, I cried when I realized
That sweet wind was U

Spirits come and spirits go
Some stick around 4 the aftershow
I don't have 2 say I miss U
Cuz I think U already know

If U ever lose someone dear 2 U
Never say the words - "They're gone"
They'll come back, yeah
They'll come back, yeah, yeah
They'll come back

Tears go here {x4}


Is this Prince's saddest song? For me, it is. I cried when I first heard it.
U been bamboozled, hoodwinked, took.

Its a great song,in fact the last 3 songs on The Truth are brilliant.
Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
woot!

Honestly I think 'Another Lonely Christmas' is the saddest song ever. To have the woman you love die on Christmas? WHOA!

Now Prince is a JW he wouldn't ever pen something like this. It's a beautiful song, sad but uplifting.
