But I CANNOT STAND When Doves Cry.
Hate it. Always skip it. Don't know why.

wow! isnt it fascinating how people have such different tastes over things. ive heard When Doves Cry a billion times, but as soon as i hear that first guitar riff i get shivers like its the first time ive heard it.


EXACTLY!!!

(only the first 10 times I heard it I was ready to puke... then started to grow on me)

When Doves Cry is the best song ever existed!
And KISS comes real close in the top5 for sure!

The one I don't like much is Raspberry Beret - too dull for me. Not that I hate it, I'll just never choose to listen to it.

Now I have to admit I've had an overdose of Purple Rain too... I usually only listen to my favourite part, the "honey I know, I know times are changin" cry, which breaks me every time.

I don't understand so much hate towards Cream. It has dumb lyrics, but it's nice musically.

I will stick to the singles I hate:
-Sexy MF
-My name is Prince
-TMBGITW (really really annoying)
-Peach

Boring songs neutral

Cream-cheap (can see why he wrote it) I always see this as the last song where Prince wrote a pop song where people bought it just for the song without any opinion of Prince

Money dont matter tonight-God its drab and repeats too much
Purple Rain-Dont like anthems but like to see it live
Greatest Romance Ever Sold-so contrived to try and sell

Now I have seen it all!!! When Doves Cry. Wow now that is something that took me by surprise to hear some say they don't like that song. I will admit that when it was released that the initial listen on the radio kind of threw me off cause of the singing in the lower range but then it hit me like a sack of bricks and I have loved that song ever since. Love it!!! Now Sister, not so much...

The biggest turds IMO are songs like:

- Big White Mansion
- The greatest romance
- Future Baby Mama
- Mr. Goodnight
- Box of Chocolates

I hate it when he goes into 'contemporary R&B' mode. Its generic, soulless shit lacking the key ingredient what traditional R&B and soul are about: SOUL

I really, really dislike Prince's version. The quirkiness of the track was replaced with a hefty dose of schmaltz. The Family version still gives me chills.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

I LOVE the album version of "I wish u heaven" but the extended mix ruins the song with all the extra crap that has nothing to do with the lyrics of the song. Terrible.

And Prince's cover of her version is even worse. (makes you wonder if anyone else ever covered his/her own song??)
