Two of the finest songs I've heard, regardless of performer.

Not to bump the thread, but let's put it this way:

Both WDC and LRC have legitimate claim to "best Prince song". eek

I think that Little Red Corvette is definitely Prince's most clever song. I think I actually appreciate that song more and more as the years go by.

This song came out before I was a Prince fan, and it wasn't until years later that I listened to it for it's creativity, not just for it's catchy hook.

And of course, I had no idea what it was about when I was an 11 year old kid when it first came out.

Very clever man, that Prince guy. wink

... and the ride is so sweeeeet... you must be a limousine.

The way that line is delivered is legendary!
The public is squeezin' you kiddo. You'd better kick ass on your next album or else!

I can still deal with almost anything on NPS more than anything on TRC, by far. I'm not saying NPS is a "smart" album but it's higher on my list than TRC.
