I'd say "Sometimes it Snows in April" if you mean epic seemingly heartfelt songs, then "Gold",etc.

Go stand in a mirror somewhere until you come to your senses.
That album (Graffiti Bridge) is one of his best.
The album was so much better than the movie.

As far as a signature song . . . .

Kiss would be the closest to a signature song after Purple Rain, which I don't think of as a signature song at all, but whatever . . .

In terms of artistic achievement and commercial potential I'd say it was SOTT. If that album had been marketed properly ("If I Was Your Girlfriend" as the 2nd single???) and Prince had toured America he could have sold 2 to 3 times what it actually sold at the time. And for a double album that would have put it in the Purple Rain realm. And artistically its superb.
the music knows what your motives are when you are making it

listen to The Replacements - its good for the soul

He hasn't, the movie combined with that song (I'm not saying it's my #1) make it the defining p song, when he's in that alley and that girl is crying and the crowd is screaming still touches me every time i watch it.



all that matters the present the here and now people, people. cool
