im so sick

Of not being able 2 play Prince at work. sad

We get a lot of elderly customers in our shop and usually just play the radio or cds by Elton John, Celine Dion etc

it needs 2 be reasonably easy listening/middle of the road (god i hate those terms wink ) and of course no profanities

So far i've got

Raspberry Beret
Money Dont matter 2 nite
Diamonds & Pearls
Most beautiful girl in the world
Thieves in the temple
Little red corvette
Purple Rain
Betcha by golly wow


Any suggestions are greatly appreciated
seems that i was busy doing something close to nothing, but different than the day before music beret

be careful of playing the "hits"... i thought it would be a good mix... I work in a hospital... one saturday, a resp therapist came by and asked "Is that Prince?" I said yeah... the RT said... "what did he just say? 'Shaking that azz, shaking that azz?!'
Sexy MF had came on and I wasn't paying attention.

I used 2 work in the Wrecka dept of a major dept store- and couldnt really play P then either lol
I used 2 get bagged out by fellow staff members- oh, i suppose i should have changed the cassettes more often (this was in the days of vinyl) lol
