Don't you hate it at the end of Feel Good, where Prince says "Part 2", and then there's the fadeout? You just know there's a half hour extended jam version sitting in the vault! Have you ever turned Cream right up at the end to hear if he says anything after "Cream baby"? Do you clasp the bridge of your nose in horror as "Sexual Suicide" flips into the most hell-funky jam right at the end and the volume drops away to nothing?

I know these all apply to me...
What are your favourite songs that recede into the aural darkness, and you'd give your Opus Ipod just to hear another minute??

Around The World In A Day
The Ladder
Crucial

Sexual Suicide segues without a pause into Cloreen Bacon Skin, so the funky jam goes on and on and on...

I want to hear the rest of that guitar solo in Crucial.

sometimes yes and glad that he did release the jam (america)

and there r times where he edited it just right (i would die 4 u remix goes on 4 another 20 mins )

#1. Vicki Waiting

Around The World In A Day
Strange Relationship
Computer Blue
Little Red Corvette (Lp Version)

Sexuality.... I hear the drums kicking in again on the fade, and I just want that groove to go on for days!

but as many others have said, also Around The World In A Day. Vicki Waiting is a good call too.

Oh this is fun, and easy...

Without a doubt: "Strange Relationship".

It breaks down into mostly percussion/drums, with that crazy synth, and the chanting vocals. I have ALWAYS wanted 2 hear that jam beyond the fadeout... more than any other fadeout.

Peggy Mac or Susan Rogers noted how Prince kept playing a bit on "How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore?" but the song was faded a bit earlier for the single. You can sorta hear him really improving as the fade happens. The same goes for the solo on "Guitar". I'd love to hear "U Got The Look" have a definite ending as well. "Take Me With U" has a longer section at the end as well. The glaringly obvious choices are "America" (which was released I guess, on 12" but I'd still like to hear the tape run out, which it did just before the fade), and "The Ladder". "I Would Die 4 U" 12" is another (the 30 minute jam booted out).

There's a lot.

From the top of my head:

- Around the world in a day

- Rock hard in a funky place

- Forever in my life

- Strange Relationship

- Life can be so Nice (Not really a fade-out, but...)

Yes! I must admit, I was thinking of Take Me With You when I started the topic. I had this 'ending' in my head, and I sort of reverse engineered it back to Take Me With You. Those purple rain arrangements are the bomb. So many great codas and intros!

Large Room With No Light
Forever In My Life
Life Can Be So Nice

Dirty Mind was ready to rip more guitar at the end.

The 12" version of "U got the look" has a definite ending.

I agree with "Guitar" and "How come u don't call me anymore"

SNIPPED

Did you understand the question? Most of the songs you listed don't have a fade out.

Always In My Hair

Can't Stop This Feeling I Got - It just starts an interesting minor key
groove, with some guitar soloing and fades out. I'd like to hear what
happens next.


I miss the days of the 12" version. Particularly the ones that were just
extensions of the album version, like Kiss, Mountains or America. These
days we only ever get to hear the 'album version' of songs.

Yes Mr police man...& so what... they don't have fade out... but I'd give my Opus Ipod just to hear another minute of each of these songs !

I can feel the need to keep hearing any song...although I love how, "The last December," end with the walking footsteps and the fading...1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ...
