"If I Was Ur Girlfriend" and "The Beautiful Ones".

Those songs are just... other-worldly.

Although I have made my mind up, it's still hard to say the name of this song without mentioning If I Was Ur Girlfriend, The Beautiful Ones, Purple Rain, Do Me Baby, I Would Die 4 U, Sometimes It Snows In April, The Ballad Of Dorothy Parker, Joy In Repetition, Shhh, Little Red Corvette and Pop Life, but I'll say it's the epic, amazing, breathtaking, musically and lyrically perfect

I Hate U.



I think I'll be the only one to list this as his best song and one of the very few to list a 90s song of his, but it has to be it.

I really agree with this. It's not a track you bang on the stereo at any given opportunity but based on the original question I do think Crystal Ball is amazing. It has movements, suptlety and epic sounds. It absolutely blows me away. It has that pure genius aspect of though complex makes absolute sense. It is an perfect example of modern classical music. Classical music as with literature was always a core story within an existential agenda-this song achieves exactly that. You could always argue that prince has always done that being Messianic V Nihilistic, being egotistical and then humbked by a greater sense of everything else. However I dont believe he has ever pulled it off like crystal ball where i feel it can be played to both a pop/rock audience and to someone who maybe a classical music snob. It covers absolutely everything-and if proof were ever required to show Prince's genius-this is it

Joy In Repetition. It tells a story lyrically and the music is from the era of his greatest recording period, with a slamming guitar solo.
