I'd say either Purple Rain or ATWIAD.
Purple Rain Erotic City 17 Days Another Lonely Christmas God ATWIAD She's Always In My Hair America Hello Girl Not to mention the stellar extended/remixed A-sides themselves. |

America isnt a b-side....its track 6 or 7 or something on the album :s Purple Rain has the best B-Sides on it, but cant beat CD3 of the Hits collection  I got more hits than Madonna's got kids! | |

Sometimes,
I wish my b-sides were awesome. Instead, my doctor said that they were a heart-attack waiting to happen.  | |

Are we including songs that were out during the same year but neither on b-side or album e.g Possesed, 4 the tears in ur eyes? There aren't many more to list but was just wondering anyway.

How come u don't call me anymore Horny toad Irresistible bitch Irresistable Bitch and HCUDCMA are 2 of my fave b - sides. Was Horny toad an actual b-side though? I thought it was one of those "well known bootlegs!" or along the lines of "Gotta stop messin' about" Not a favourite. Prefer Delerious which it is similar too. Life's a Parade!

I managed to get a vinyl version of it back in 87, b-side to let´s work I think If it were not for insanity, I would be sane.

I would say Purple Rain. 17 Days, Another Lonely Xmas and Erotic City make up for God (vocal mix) which really throws off the grade!
It is the one really embarrassing bside from that era. I'd say 1999 b-sides come in 2nd The expanded version of my book PRINCE and The Purple Rain Era Studio Sessions 1983-1984 was released in November 2018.

GB era, that had virtually no b-sides, none that i can remeber off hand anyway, but i am in my GB hating mood at the moment  If it were not for insanity, I would be sane.

So instead of speculating I've decided to check through my Vinyl singles collection and I can confirn that Horny Toad is the B-side of my U.S. 7" of Delirious!!!!! I said earlier that they were similar!!! Think I'm gonna have to check one of the discographies I have to see if HT made it out before this? Life's a Parade! LoveLife, LoveSexy! | |

Putting America as a B-side was a typo . . . I had the remix A-Side playing in my head as I was posting! She's Always In My Hair IS a B-side, or at least here in the US. It's the b-side to Raspberry Beret. |

Irresistible bitch should have been included on the 1999 album!
And Erotic City released as a single! (it didn't deserve a B-side status)... Also, She's always in my hair would have been a great addition for ATWIAD... [Edited 1/5/08 15:41pm]  | |
