Which singles have never been performed live? As far as I know, Prince has never performed New Power Generation live. Which other singles has he never performed, or at least have never been regulars on a tour?
I think it was One Tree Hill from The Joshua Tree that U2 decided not to release as a single because Bono's voice couldn't handle singing the high notes night after night on tour - funny, Prince is fine with not performing his latest single on tour (usually to the detriment of the single's success, I think). | |

"She Love Me 4 Me" was released as a single off TRC -- I don't recall him playing that live during the ONA tour.
"Thieves in the Temple" also seldom got any live exposure, certainly not anytime in recent history for a single that was a moderate radio success. Check out The Mountains and the Sea, a Prince podcast by yours truly and my wife. More info at https://www.facebook.com/TMATSPodcast/ | |
