According to Per Nilson, the Kiss demo was recorded at Sunset Sound, when Prince was recording both Parade and Mazarati simultaneously. Mazarati asked Prince for an extra song for their album, so he grabbed an acoustic guitar and sang a simple bluesy song (in his lower register voice). He gave Mazarati persmission to 'go nuts' on it, and they kind of turned it into the hit we all know. At which point Prince stole it back, coz it was too good! The acoustic version sounds a million miles away from the finished version - if he'd given that to me, I wouldn't have know WHAT to do with it. Really interesting to hear, though, if you can get hold of it.

I enjoy listening to both Princes acoustic demo of Kiss and Mazaratis full version of the song.....the progression of the song to what it became is cool 2 hear....


And yeah Pepe Willie wrote Do Yourself A Favor. Prince recorded his version of it '83 and Jesse did a version in '87 which was on his Shockadelica album.

Reading through this thread confirms that it's impossible to stick to 5. I'll try:
Moonbeam Levels
All my dreams
Wonderful ass
In a large room with no light
open book

I'll post again later with 5 more

Christopher said:

"Wouldn't You Love To Love Me?" is one of my favorites aswell though it didn't make my list. Prince actually tried to give that song to MJ but he turned it down. I thought that was funny. But Prince did a good job on it himself anyway.

4. Moonbeam Levels
5. Turn It Up

Honorable mentions:

6. Crucial (horns)

Cosmic Day is a surprising to me to see listed here. Not because I don't like the song, but because this is the first I've heard of it circulating.

Can anyone provide describe the song? Is that the one that Planet Earth was compared to?

NightGod said:

It's not circulating to the general hardcore Prince fans. It's only circulating amongst the ultra hardcore we don't share because someday I can sell it for a lot of money Prince fans. But I have it and I'm neither.
