[Edited 10/28/07 12:59pm] Until a couple of months ago, same here! I'm shocked and appalled that no one's mention the "Gett Off" Remixes, and if I wasn't still pissed at Prince, for being a selfish twit. I'd gush all over this thread singing it's praises, but I am so I won't! | |

Hot Wit U - the dance version that was on an NPG Ahdio Show.
What's this 90s version of Something in the Water? | |

theghostoftonym said: the shock-g remix of lovesign is way better than the original imo
i agree,the original is a bit too busy.i like that "pop,pop,pop go the pistol,bang,bang,bang go the gun" part though.and i like all the extended versions from the 80s(especially raspberry beret,little red corvette,shockadelica and let's go crazy).also,i've never been into "batdance" but i think the "batmix" is much better. For all time I am with you, you are with me. | |

silverchild said: So Dark (from the Crystal Ball set)
I love both versions, but the Crystal Ball version gives the song that extra kick! nah,the "come" version is better with the live feel and all.i think the remix kinda takes the life out of it.one of my least favorites from "crystal ball". For all time I am with you, you are with me. | |

The Rapture version of Scandalous - It's when he officially became my guitar hero.

Vicki Waiting -- Yes, I'm the fool who always turns up Batman during the casino scene just to hear Prince kill that guitar solo. He should've released that...
Shockadelica -- for the same reason. I love that sped-up, fuzzed-out guitar solo stuff. | |

Absolutely Right! The original is a perfect "dark" poem. I love this song. The CB version is too slick and at odds with the rainy bitter cold themes. | |

I have to revist this thread because I missed the completely obvious one...
Partyman (Video Mix)! Maybe more a straightforward Extended version than an actual remix, but still completely superior imho. Eye like pretty things, and u're just as pretty as u can b... | |

Sorry I forgot about the 2 classic mix collections,
firstly of the New Power Generation (including the amazing Get Off, Lubricated Lady, Loveleft Loveright). God those were better than everything on Graffitti Bridge put together!! secondly, the Gett Off remixes, particularly "Violet the organ grinder", which in its own right as a song is one of his greatest songs of all time. | |

I Would Die 4 U America Anotherloverholenyohead Mountains Glam Slam I Wish U Heaven Partyman (video version and purple party mix) Scandalous Sex Suite New Power Generation My Name Is Prince (extended and edit, both. for some reason the album version just doesn't do it for me) of course, i think most of the extended versions are better than the originals. but these are the ones that really make the songs into something i want to listen to, because they take the song to the next level. | |

Letitgo - Sherm Stick Edit. The song becomes so much darker and has a bite. _________________________________________

Something in the Water (1990's mix)
What is this??? I have never heard tell. I know I am late to the party and all BUT I must have this I don't know the name of the mix there is a remix of Letitgo with the ballad of Dorothy Parker sampled for the beat. LOVE THAT my ex stole it when we split [Edited 11/30/07 7:55am] | |

Universal Love - Space as previously mentioned
and I Wish U Heaven parts 1, 2 & 3. i know its extended not a remix but damn its funky! ditto for part 2 of the Scandalous Sex Suite - The Passion? the blue angel just gives me chills! So Dark is catchier than the original | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
Oh, and I just remembered the Sherm Stick edit of Letitgo
the slowed down Dorothy Parker beack and killer synth/guitar | |

The only remisxe I think are better than the originals are:
So Dark The Greatest Romance Ever Sold (Neptunes Mix w/Q-Tip) I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

djenerate said: Most Beautiful Girl In The World (mustang mix). His lead vocals are much more raw & his harmonic arrangements & backing licks are just mindblowing!!!
& as a rule of thumb, all the longer versions of the tracks that remain true to the originals are always better coz u get the extra lyrics & instrumental jams. I am DEFINITELY agreeing with U on this one! "Gett Off (Houstyle)" is another of my faves along side TGRES (neptunes w/Q-Tip) Glam Slam '91 is cool.. wait that became Gett Off didn't it? DISQUALIFIED! 'dre Tried many flavours - but sooner or later, always go back to the Purple Kool-aid!
