@ the thought of making this thread I broke out into psycotic laughter & then accidently drooled a bit.

People I wished Prince would/would have worked with.

1. Michael Jackson - duh. MJ do "7" & Prince do remember the time

2. David Bowie.

3. Terrence Trent D`arby or whatever his new name is.

4.Jonny Cash on one of his last 4 recordings.

5. Nirvana

6. Rihanna- would make my daughter happy.

7. Elvis

8. Paul Mckartney

9. A dance off with Hammer on his Christian show

10. Mettallica

Although completly fictitious and utterly impossible, I would love to listen to Prince playing with Jack de Johnette, Herbie Hancock, Marcus Miller and the horns section of Tower of Power.....

Mos Def....

Prince has recorded with Terence Trent D'Arby, it just hasn't been released.

And he alluded to having recorded with David Bowie in one of those L4OA "innerviews" a few years back.

LADY GAGA AND WILLIE NELSON AND PRINCE
.....
together!

Coldplay. That would be awesome. I'd love to see him do something with Santogold too... And I know this is all hypothetical and hearsay but I HAVE to see him to something with Pharrell before I die. I just have to.

I always wished Prince would work with Square-Enix

A counselor.

I'd like to see him do something with Jill Scott

Dave Grohl, Joshua Homme... both massive Prince fans... they could take him to a pub and loosen him up a little.

Also, Sean Donnell... Kiwi... SJD... A bloody marvellous musucian and a man who would make Prince smile from ear to ear. Their music would be heaven on a disk.

not naw.. but hell naw

Nope! I still think that Prince doez his best work solo.

Jill Scott would be nice.
..
Sade....the beauty between those two would probably burn our eyes!

Lauren Hill....I just miss her whole vibe!

Dionne Farris....pure vocal talent and grunge funk.

...why not Mos Def....or just Prince playing the bass on Umi Says...lawd it would be so much cool oozing in that room it would be a block of ice!

Andre 3000...in my opinion he is Prince first cousin..the whole out there b4 his time type of thing.

Q-Tip....cause he can get a party hopping! Can't you just hear the lyrics getting spit with these two!

Madonna...not for the singing just the blatant visual it would create!!!

Green Day...just to see Prince act like it was the 80's again!

I know I'm all over the place ...I can wish right?

Yeah, along with several of those listed in the first post.

I agree with sexxydancer here. He has done several duets, but how many are decent? Madonna? Kate Bush? There were even rumours of a Bjork collaboration. Thank God it wasn't pursued-far too different in style. Prince seems too reluctant to allow equal artistic input for a collaboration to work. He's much better following his own instinctive (right or wrong!).

Shakira.

Rick Rubin.

Of course this would never happen; and if it did, it could just as easily be terrible. But I would certainly be interested in hearing the results.

No.
