You have If I Had A Harem twice.

Wow, is that all? You're very discriminating...NOT!

i'm only going to name one, eventhough i have more Favs.

Te Amo Corazon

Excellent! The only thing is, though, is that "I would die for U" is not a ballad...or a slow song....discuss....

There's 2 versions: The live version is a slower blues version, and the studio version is a little more upbeat, pop version but it's still a slow song.

Purple Rain gets me all teary-eyed & makes me wanna cry! But ballads like Adore & Count The Daysare have very goofy, lyrics.

I see you put "Gold" on that list... and as much as I enjoy it, beautiful & slow isnt what I'd call it. I have my own definition of that song, which I really can't put together right now. It just goes beyond those words.

When I think, beautiful, the following songs come to mind 4 me:

The Beautiful Ones (its a given)
When 2 R in Love
Alexa de Paris
If was ur girlfriend
Te Amo Corazon

...but you're forgetting a bunch of beautiful slow songs that I

Somewhere here on Earth
Damn U
The Morning Paper
The Greatest Romance
Do me Baby

...in fact, a bunch of these songs, I was planning to put on a mix I was going to call "My own 'The Beautiful Experience'"... the only downside is that Prince has written far too many beautiful songs that I love and I can't fit them all into one disc... that and my busy "schedule" has prevented me from putting together a solid list and burn it... without leaving anything important out.

Some of these you listed, I wouldn't consider them slow songs, like 17 Days, I Wonder, Calhoun Square, Life Can Be So Nice, The Everlasting Now etc.

But to add a song to your list. "Pink Cashmere".

I Love U In Me.

These are Ballads/Slow Songs ??? (And I was being very generous).

yeah ur list contains dance songs in them ..unless ur basing them on lyrical content

Kush said:

Agree to both...

But I must say that "The One" is what I think of beautiful.

Although "Shh" does have one of the nicest solos I've ever heard

A lot come to mind, but "The Beautiful Ones" is my fave.

Well done list

jasmine3121 said:

yes all of those and Call My Name,How Come U Dont Call Me Anymore,Damn U and Shh

optimus said:

Oh shoot , how could I forget those, I love those songs.

I'll probably play a whole bunch of them tonight, but I'll just keep myself to the 80's since there are just so many otherwise.
This is what I've got so far:

Do me Baby
The Beautiful Ones
God (instrumental)
Electric Intercourse
Condition of the Heart
Venus de Milo
4ever in my life
Adore
(possibly If was ur g/f)
When 2 R in Love

That should keep me busy 4 a while ...and I've already seen the SHOE video today, so I'm golden.

SOMEWHERE HERE ON EARTH.

If I Was Your Girlfriend
The Beautiful Ones
Electric Intercourse.


Damn, i need to get the Prince CDs out again.
