Prince Lyrics Only.

Just for the sake of an extreme range... being aware that the music could
change this opinion....
What song would you put at the weak end, poetically, and,
What song would you give the greatest poetic strength to?

I would choose, "Had U." at the left, and, "Dark." to the right.

What about U? cool

Tangerine -weakest

Some days I feel tangerine
Some days I feel blue
Some days I just wanna black out everything I felt 4 U
Even though I take your picture everywhere I go
I use it 4 a coaster and drink the overflow

Some days I make a lot of money and give it all away
2 take my mind off the tangerine color of your negligee'
Beggars can't be choosy if they don't know how 2 serve
U got a different phone number and a lot of nerve

Some days I feel tangerine
Some days I miss U, 2



I mean what the hell?...

Adore-highest
Prince - Adore Lyrics

Baby, yes
Until the end of time I'll be there 4 U
U own my heart and mind - I truly adore U
If God one day stroke me blind
Your beauty I'd still see
Love is 2 weak 2 define - Just what U mean 2 me
From the first moment I saw U
Ooh, I knew U where the 1
That night I had 2 call U
I was rappin' till the sun came up
Tellin' U just how fine U look
In a word, U were sex
All of my cool attitude U took
My body was next - U made love 2 me
Like U where afraid Was U afraid of me?
Was I the first? Was I your every fantasy?
That's why
Until the end of time I'll be there 4 U

Personally, I think that Had U is powerful, it is understated, simple and to the point but the simplicity of the prose is specific to the simplicity and trivality of the relationship just my opinion here are my bookends, (at least as i sit here)

left side... Lemon Crush right side... Love 2 the 9s "don't use that magical, mysterious, intoxicating, joy-fantastic, fascinating, word called love unless u love me 2 the 9s this is only kinda love that i've been dreamin of, the kind of love that takes over ur body mind and soul love 2 the 9s"

ronnie talk 2 russia on the left.....dreaming about u 2 the right
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

Can u imagine how long it would take, to put all of Prince's songs into
a favorite line....

Maybe I'll get around to that in twenty years or so.
