yo yo guys

Me and a few buds are having a house party, and we're making mixed CDs with all chart music and stuff, and they've let me have ONE Prince song. God damnit, just one! As they all hate Prince, Ive gotta choose wisely And I cant choose one, so any help?

I got: Lolita, DMSR, Partyman, Girls And Boys, Automatic

any other reccomendations?

Black Sweat
Silicon
Incense and Candles
F.U.N.K.

as a teenager, i would love to hear me some "erotic city" at a house party

I fucking love Erotic City! My favourite P song, so might pick that.

Erotic City is always fun, although teens would probably think "it's that P.Diddy song!"

I suggest Automatic or Erotic city.

Jughead

What kind of music do your friends listen to? You should try to pick something similar to their tastes so that they'll like it, but so you like it at the same time.

I let one of my friends listen to Mountains. She said she couldn't stop listening to it.

grrrr...
I know!
I'd have a hard time convincing my friends that P came up with it first.

from the top of my head >now,mr happy,life o the party,lets go crazy,kiss,thunder,housequake,chelsea rodgers.

God - that'll freak em out!!!

Seriously it has to be either Kiss, Erotic City, or Let's Go Crazy

All crowd pleasers even for the haters!

If you want to play it safe choose something from Purple Rain album. Otherwise...

Kiss
Alphabet St.
1999
Mountains
Controversy
U Got The Look
Undisputed
Anotherlover
The Human Body
The Continental

Have fun,

Do not choose Lolita

Trust me....

Erotic city is a must
I would die 4 u
Baby im a star
Computer blue
F.u.n.k
Chelsea rodgers



thats what may friends dig anyway, Lolita is just embarrassin!

Ok - my vote goes to...

F.U.N.K or Erotic City

(Talking of Erotic City, which P.Diddy track do you mean?)

the one he stole

I think if you can only pick one Prince song it should be either D.M.S.R. or Let's Work

Jillibean said:

DMSR is pretty good.

R u guyz having a mosh pit and stuff? How about Loose?

HOUSE-q---u---a-k-----e.

I suggest the "Kiss" remixx.

Pheromone.

MajesticOne89 said:

Or Billy Jack Bitch, preferably any 90's song with a hard drum beat.

P Control, Sex or DMSR.

FunAndJames said:

So, you can only choose one?



Girls and Boys!

I'd include "Pussy Control" from The Gold Experience - just because it so damn hard and catchy ... and definitely "Kiss" from Parade -- because I used to play "Kiss" at my OWN teenage house parties back in the day ... excellent

Dayz of wild from the crystal ball, yank it up real loud

wildgoldenhoney said:

Its gotta be that I think. its my second favourite!

Days of Wild will be fuckin A. BREAK DOWN...THIS IS A BUST!

I wonder if we'll hear those words off a real copper....

FunAndJames said:

as long as they cart away ur 'buds' u'll b able 2 play more prince!

as 4 songs, i'd go with
the best of u (cover from superbowl) or
melt with u or love bizarre

hope it's a good one

To get them back for only letting you have one prince song... pick Solo

if i had a teenage party n i could ONLY HAVE ONE P SONG
pick sumthin u can have sex to...as most teenagers would like to do at a party

suggestions le grind
horny pony (not as good of a drum beat for a party)

sumthin with a deep bass n when the lights go down n u wanna get slow play adore or the most beautiful gurl in the world it all depends
of how wild ur party is

Mate, if you're only getting one you need to make it a long one!

You have to be careful with that alot of Prince songs have an irregular beat and can be quite hard to dance to(that comment is directed to those that don't know his stuff. We find it very easy, but then we got the funk!)

Prince isn't your average commercial poppy regulated tempo dance that is expected at parties - his music is alot more orchestrated. It is even more apparent when mixed in with this type of music - I've seen quite a few dancefloors clear or become awkward because average Joe can't get away with their little 2 step shuffle dance!

From personnal experience I would say (I know you said one but seriously - It's me talking here!!!)

Controversy (there's a dance remix version that 2 many DJ's use. its wicked!)
Lets work (extended)
D.M.S.R.
Let's go crazy (extended)
Erotic city (extended)
Kiss (extended)
Girls and Boys
U got the Look (long look - this goes down very well)
Theives in the Temple (ext or remix)
NPG (fuky weapon remix - except I doubt anyone will know the song!!!)
Gett Off (housestyle only - I've yet to fnd a non-prince fan that can dance to the original!!!)
Musicology - if you really wanna jazz/funk the joint?!

Maybe not as much but just as good fun is

Little red corvette (ext dance mix)
Alphabet street (full rap version)
Baby I'm a star
1999 - guaranteed to have every-one shouting out"1999"

I'm not sure whether that as helped or just confused matters even more and made it worse, but it's all with good intention.

Remember to post what got chosen - definitely push for more than 1 though!
