My 10 songs I'd like to hear Prince perform live. What are your 10?

Here are my 10 tracks(in no particular order) I'd like to hear Prince sing live and not just a snippet of the song like he does from time to time.

1 - Crucial
2 - Shy
3 - Roadhouse Garden
4 - Our Destiny
5 - When We're Dancing Close and Slow
6 - U Make My Sun Shine
7 - Turn It Up
8 - Soul Psychedelicide
9 - Empty Room
10 - Witness

None of these has profanity in them so I can still dream...
What about you?
When eye go 2 a Prince concert or related event it's all heart up in the house but when eye log onto this site and the miasma of bitchiness is completely overwhelming!

He did do a full version of Empty Room at the O2/Indigo Shows back in 2007 and if you haven't heard it you should, it rocks! I believe he might have done it on the One Night Alone tour to, but I may be wrong on that one. My ten would be (and this includes ones he hasn't done in a long while to):-

- Computer Blue
- Sleep Around
- Private Joy
- Uptown
- International Lover
- I Hate U
- 17 Days
- The Love We Make
- Mountains
- Lets Go Crazy (a decent version, not the pop-infused version he's being playing for the last decade...its a rock song Prince! smile )

That's a good list. I'm such a fan of the song "Empty Room" after seeing/hearing the video version of it. I'm always a sucker for Computer Blue especially the long version.

Computer Blue is just genius, no two ways about it. You know the bit I like the best though? The bit in the middle that spins away from the rest of the tune for a little while; its the part that Prince's "Dad" plays on the piano in the Purple Rain movie when Prince catches him playing the piano again, with tears in his eyes...that little extract played on the piano is one of the most heartfelt pieces of music Ive ever heard, makes me wish Prince would turn it into a full lenght piano solo piece!

I like that you have "Positivity" on your list. I remember the Lovesexy tour and he performed the whole album with the exception of that song. Even "Escape" got performed to an extent. It would definitely be a gripping track to hear live.

he performed positivity at a bunch of lovesexy aftershows nod. normally as the opener smile. my favorite take is at the roseland ballroom, where patti labelle guests music
life's a bitch, but god forbid the bitch divorce me...
