Saddest Prince song??

To you anyway. I don't mean that when you listen to it you think doggone it its so bad its sad for you wiseguys out there. I mean that when you listen to it it sounds as if P's actually going through that emotion and conveys the sadness in the song so well that it makes you sad.

I have 5 i've always loved. Off the top of my head:

Sometimes it Snows in April
Another Lonely Christmas
17 Days
Still Waiting
Gotta Broken Heart Again.

What are yours?
"Why'd I waste my kisses on you baby?" R.I.P. Prince You've finally found your way back home. Well Done.

Sometimes It Snows In April
Come Back
I Love U But I Don't Trust U Anymore

I don't think Still Waiting is sad - it's more optimistic and hopeful than, say, a breakup or death song.

Apparently, the unreleased and probably destroyed 'Wally' - heart-wrenching.

don't 4get kids:

in order 2 write a sad song you must stand above the grief.
this natural law does indeed make clowns of our greatest entertainers confused

I always feel really melancholy when I hear "Condition of the Heart".

I think that, and "Sometimes it snows in April" are the saddest.

Maybe I'm having a lapse here but what's Comeback from?

My choices are:
Venus De Milo
Sometimes It Snows In April
There Is Lonely
and prolly my top pic,
Solo
Fantasy is reality in the world today. But I'll keep hangin in there, that is the only way.
