Actually I don't mind having edits on a hits collection. It's a career overview and not meant to be comprehensive. With edits you have room for more songs and it leaves you wanting more if you're a new fan. If not, it collects them all in one place where normally you'd have to sift through singles. Edits are alright by me. If they're good edits.


I do think however that there could've been a box set at the time containing a 3rd and 4th disc of hits. My brother and I brainstormed about what these would be like and we came up with something that I think is quite good. Tell me what you think?

The Hits 3
1. Batdance
2. Bambi
3. America
4. Computer Blue
5. Darling Nikki
6. Sexuality
7. Sexy Dancer
8. DMSR
9. Private Joy
10. Partyup
11. Partyman
12. Housequake
13. Le Grind
14. Let's Work
15. Let's Pretend We're Married
16. Hot Thing

The Hits 4
1. My Name Is Prince
2. New Power Generation
3. Glam Slam
4. Paisley Park
5. Girls and Boys
6. Take Me With U
7. Mountains
8. I Wish U Heaven
9. The Future
10. Thunder
11. Anotherloverholenyohead
12. Automatic
13. Baby I'm A Star
14. Just As Long As We're Together
15. Willing and Able
16. Lovesexy

I think these have really good flow and feel to them. Of course most of these are lesser hits and album tracks but they're almost all classics and add to his legacy. I think Prince is due up for a thorough career retrospective. That might be the only way we get those damned remasters any time soon.
