It's one of the best pop songs period IMO. Ironic that it's also one of the most avant garde singles ever. As much as it's overplayed/liked etc, no denying its quantum genius.

POWER FANTSTIC
I didn't even know last night was the ten year anniversary of Prince Night. I'm sure glad I went! I've been going off and on since 1997.

The Beautiful Ones, Diamonds & Pearls and Adore are my fave Prince songs.
"And When The Groove Is Dead And Gone, You Know That Love Survives, So We Can Rock Forever" RIP MJ heart

"Baby, that was much too fast"...Goodnight dear sweet Prince. I'll love you always heart

"When Doves Cry" has my vote.

The story behind how he wrote it within 24 hours of its request 4 the movie is classic Prince.
Brilliance leaks from that song unlike anything else he's written.

Purple Rain is the most famous of his songs, but I think "When Doves Cry" is pure Prince.
You listen 2 it and you'll know what he's all about.
"Musical Genius"

when the words "best song" come to mind, I think of the ones that practically wrote themselves that showcase how close he is to the music.

That's why I chose 'when doves cry'.

Computer Blue (full version) is definitely "one" of his best.

I've only heard it less than 10 times, but I still think its awesome... puts the album version to shame and it'll never sound the same again...

It definitely shows how complex he is [both his personality & his mind in general] and how much musical talent he has...

I'm thinking and its too many to pick what i consider to be the best. Adore is my favorite though. It leaves little to be desired.
I'm an org elitist... totally unapproachable.
