Prince's Places of Refuge

It seems like Prince loves to write songs about places of refuge - where he can be who he wants to be; like imaginary kingdom's of heaven. I can't think of any other artist who has written SOO many songs about the same concept. Here's the list i can think of off the top of my head:

Uptown
Paisley Park
The Digital Garden
7
The Ball (graf. bridge outtake)
Crystal Ball
The Year is 2020
3121

Have I missed any?

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.
