Top 15 Love Songs Before 1990.

It's obvious that in time being in the music biz you get better with age. And Prince is no exception. His ballads are up there with the best balladeers of all time. Like Luther, Jeffrey, Marvin, Peabo, and Brian. After 1990, he's come with such classics as: Shhh, The Most Beautiful Girl.., Insatiable, and D&P. But I want you guys to list in order your faves before the year 1990. In P album years that would be before Graffiti Bridge. Here's mine:
1. Adore
2. The Beautiful Ones
3. Scandalous
4. Purple Rain
5. With You
6. Do Me Baby
7. She's Always In My Hair
8. Conditon Of the Heart
9. International Lover
10. Slow Love
11. When 2 R In Love
12. It's Gonna Be Lonely
13. Take Me With U
14. For You
15. So Blue
Peace and be wild!

I'm gonna think on that list for a minute, however Graffiti Bridge was 85' so you mean before 90'

[/quote]Are You smoking? 85? Purple Rain was 84. The follow-up to PR was ATWIAD. Not GB. That came after Parade, SOTT, Lovesexy, and Batman which was 89. I should know. That was the year I graduated high school so I remember everything that year partner.
Peace and be wild!

I’m not broadminded enough in my definition of the word to include great tracks like “Purple Rain” and “She’s Always in My Hair”. Besides, before long, I’d be including everything that wasn’t hard and fast.

Best ballads prior to 1990, unranked but in their chronological release order.

On the sexual tip:

Baby
Do Me Baby
How Come U Don’t Call Me Anymore?
International Lover
The Beautiful Ones
Condition of the Heart
Alexa de Paris
Under the Cherry Moon
Sometimes It Snows In April
Crucial
Slow Love
Adore
When 2 R In Love
Scandalous

On the Religious Tip:

The Ladder
Power Fantastic
Still Would Stand All Time
