Top Prince songs on Last.FM

Alright, so I just discovered the wonders of last.fm (my profile is below if anybody wants to add me.) Hopefully this hasn't been posted before, but I thought it was pretty interesting. Last.fm keeps track of all of the tracks actually played by its users, via their computer or ipod.... and it compiles charts based on whats played.

sooo... you can actually see what songs people are listening to the most, and that's pretty cool IMHO.

The most listened to Prince songs of the last 6 months (# of plays after song title):


1. Kiss 11,868
2. When Doves Cry 10,463
3. Purple Rain 10,419
4. 1999 8,086
5. Little Red Corvette 7,536
6. Raspberry Beret 5,793
7. Black Sweat 4,862
8. Let's Go Crazy 4,746
9. I Wanna Be Your Lover 3,925
10. Cream 3,780
11. I Would Die 4 U 3,668
12. Musicology 3,168
13. U Got the Look 3,045
14. Diamonds and Pearls 2,945
15. Fury 2,900
16. Lolita 2,883
17. 3121 2,650
18. Gett Off 2,475
19. Controversy 2,366
20. Delirious 2,305
21. Incense And Candles 2,276
22. Love 2,267
23. When You Were Mine 2,255
24. Sign 'O' the Times 2,205
25. I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man 2,160
26. Satisfied 2,119
27. The Word 2,074
28. Thieves in the Temple 2,069
29. If I Was Your Girlfriend 2,057
30. Get On The Boat 1,912
31. Uptown 1,878
32. Alphabet St. 1,874
33. Dirty Mind 1,863
34. The Dance 1,852
35. Darling Nikki 1,840
36. Adore 1,807
37. Pop Life 1,682
38. Nothing Compares 2 U 1,679
39. Cinnamon Girl 1,669
40. 7 1,638
41. Te Amo Corazón 1,584
42. Head 1,572
43. Call My Name 1,513
44. Beautiful, Loved & Blessed 1,426
45. I Feel for You 1,418
46. Erotic City 1,411
47. Starfish and Coffee 1,350
48. Soft and Wet 1,340
49. Take Me With U 1,338
50. Sexy M.F. 1,307


Some very interesting things in that list. Strange to see "Te Amo Corazon" so far below the other 3121 tracks. Even though it was the first single, I guess folks don't play it much. Also interesting to see "Starfish and Coffee" in the list... and "Musicology" charted much higher than either "Call My Name" or "Cinnamon Girl", which kinda surprised me. Also, I was shocked to see "I Wanna Be Your Lover" so high.... I didn't realize it was that popular.

Anybody else on Last.FM? These charts are one of the coolest things about it. It's fun looking at different artists seeing which songs people actually listen to the most.

I've never heard of this before but it sounds cool. I love the fact that Black Sweat is in the top 10 of this list. It's still such a hot song and I wish radio wasn't such a bitch with him and that song. I need to check out Last.FM
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
