What song or album by prince do you know by heart?

Is there a song from any era that you can sing every lyric even recite the

guitar solos ?

I know I'm not the only one who can remember the entire Purple Rain album

Sorry, none!

Purple Rain
The Rainbow Children
Parade
Grafitti Bridge
3121
Planet Earth
Rave Un 2
Exodus
Emancipation disc 2
Gold Experience
The Vault

Overall I'd say I know the words to about 80- 85 percent of Prince's songs by heart.

wow, I have often wondered about that, i dont think there is any song i could recite or write the lyrics to completely, even if i have been listening to them 25 odd yrs.

That thing about teenagers being able to recite ever part of a song?
Not a baseless stereotype.
I could do a few dozen songs off the top of my head.

I know the words to hundreds of songs by heart.

I guess it's because I love to sing all the time... I ain't exactly a great singer but I don't care

I haven't been a teenager for over 20 some years but I still remember the words to songs I learned in grade school.

Quick, gimmie the lyrics to Power Fantastic without looking.

I think it is a gift to be able to do that, I have always found it amazing that some people can pick up the lyrics of a song after a few listens, I even struggle at Karaoke

Whitnail said:

I bet you could do Purple Rain or When Doves Cry.

I know just about all the lyricz 2 all thingz Prince.

3121 & Planet Earth.

I can do that with any album that came out between 1982-1986.

starfish and coffee and 1999

parade, purple rain and just about all of sign o the times and far too many songs.

i'm good with chorus' but better at humming..anything by prince. i can sing the one u wanna c ok tht really lifts my spirit & makes me smile like a complete loon!
my husband likes singing 'baby i'm a star' (2 me)..he can really get going with this song.
he manages all the 'OWWAAAAA!' he can funk & scream DOCTOR! all while driving the car

Purple Rain - the entire album
SOTT - the entire album
Lovesexy - most of the album

Many many more singles.

I know most of the lyrix by heart...With the exception of Xpectation, and a couple of other cd's that I could never purchase.

every studio song, released or on bootleg. all the lyrics, most of the
instrumental parts. just everything lol.

except for the last 3 albums which i care so little about that i know
only 3 or 4 songs from each of them by heart.

nope, I can never remember all the lyrics to any song

thousands

Let's put it this way: If he forgot his lyrics at a show, he could just ask me.

I used to know all of the lyrics to 1999 Word. For. Word. I probably know all the lyrics to Purple Rain...But that's about it

All of them. And I can resite the Purple Rain solo on guitar more or less

Oh jesus.

When I was 16 I wrote the lyrics to Darling Nikki in one of my books.

My Mum read it and thought it was a diary entry.

She got straight on to my sister (also a fan - Domebaby69) and ranted on about how I've been seduced by some woman, etc. (you know the song).

My sister couldn't stop laughing!!!

Parents eh?
