The Hits 1993-2008 In the liner notes to The Hits/The B-Sides it says something along the lines of who knows what a collection 15 years from now would be like.
Next year will be 15 years since the 1993 release of that collection. So, what would it be like? Here's what I reckon have been Prince's single releases since 93, please point out any I have missed. The Most Beautiful Girl in the World Letitgo Space I Hate U Gold Dinner with Delores Betcha by Golly Wow! The Holy River Come On The Greatest Romance Ever Sold U Make My Sun Shine Supercute / Underneath the Cream The Work, pt. 1 Musicology Call My Name Cinnamon Girl S.S.T. Te Amo Corazón Black Sweat Fury Guitar Chelsea Rodgers My question to orgers is what would your 'b sides' disc of a 93-08 contain? | |

Well there aren't a whole lot of b-sides from that period to choose from really. All I can think of are:
Rock 'n' Roll is Alive Glass Cutter Brand New Orleans Which would make a pretty short album. Maybe you could include a few remixes: TMBGITW remixes TGRES Remix with Q-tip or the one with Eve |

That list isn't that bad????
I'm not sure Supercute or The Work, pt1 were actually issued as singles were they? If were talking internet releases aswell then wasn't She Loves Me 4 Me such an example??? Also, wasn't Endorphinmachine released [somewhere here on earth]?? I would tend to add Love Sign, Dolphin, The Same December, I Like it there and Somebody's Somebody to the list as IMO these were intended as singles but for varying reasons were not offically released [e.g. dispute with WB etc.] i exclude Face Down because it is crap. I would also tend to remove Letitgo, Space from the list so it begins with  hits first - but that's just my preference - and remove Supercute.
As for b-sides, we are probably talking those mentioned plus Lovesign remixes from CB etc.BL&B from 3121. | |

then look it up before posting.

hey, [Name calling snip - luv4u]... Prince wasn't SIGNED to WB when "Somebody's Somebody" was released to radio.. and screw your opinion. "Face Down," even though it bombed as a single (as with most of this list) it was STILL a single, [Name calling snip - luv4u].. as if it's worse than "The Same December," ahahahahahahahahahaha |

you're taking it a little too seriously, i think the point "KAB" was trying to make is that,letitgo and space are credited to prince not Like a Gb Major with a E in the bass | |

- "The Hits" 1978-1992 didn't feature only singles. Furthermore, it featured many songs that didn't crack the top 10. They are "hits" only to Prince fans. "Head" for example.
-If there was a 1993-2008 collection it should be called "Best of...". It need not contain just singles or "hits". Here are the songs that would be in my Prince: Best of 1993-2008 THERE ARE 36 Songs like Hits 1 and Hits 2 Come Space Letitgo Lovesign The Most Beautiful Girl in the World Days of Wild The Ride Pussy Control Shhh Dolphin I hate U Gold Dinner with Delores The Holy RIver Face Down Don't Play Me Welcome 2 the Dawn Come On The One The Greatest Romance Baby Knows So far, So pleased A Case of U The Everlasting Now Supercute Musicology Call my Name Cinnamon Girl 3121 Black Sweat Te Amo Corazon Satisfied Fury Guitar Future Baby Mama Planet Earth [Edited 8/17/07 8:28am] "New Power slide...." |

"Face Down" is one of Prince's most fierce songs. Live it was THE anthem on the Jam of the Year tour. I am sorry that you don't like it , but it NEEDS to be on any best of 1993-2008 collection. "New Power slide...." |

Oh yeah!
The 3rd disc could contain all his internet releases since the beginning and the virtual b-sides. Not all of us have them (and it's better on a CD) I would be very lucky and Prince could get more money by releasing those ..  |

4 real y'all need 2 stop thinking that come on and the one should b on a prince collection of hits since the new power soul is credited 2 the new power generation and not prince. if u'r going 2 include these tracks then u need 2 include tracks from the npg albums like gold nigga and exodus man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81 | |
