Yeah, she wrote some lyrics and he finished it off. I think 'Sex On Legs' was written solely by Prince but intended for her.

big house.
sounds amazing from what iv heard. sounds like something id expect from 'cut copy' like a dancy 80s revival song.

I'd love to hear Space (Rock Version), Laurianne, Dream, Fuck D Press, The Mad Pope, Slave 2 The Funk, Strawberries, Listen 2 The Rhythm, What It Is..., Strength and Angie.

I don't have any specific tracks I most wanna hear...
Just anything I haven't heard already.

I'm also intrigued by alternate and early versions of tracks too.
Who wouldn't curious to hear the original 1982 version of Raspberry Beret
or Strange Relationship? Or all the unreleased extended and remixed versions
of tracks like The Ballad of Dorothy Parker or Lovesexy etc?

Didn't Don Batts talk about an early version of "Baby I'm A Star" that wasn't so "over done" as the one we know now on the PR album? That would be interesting to hear as well as the ones you listed.

I remember it being mentioned (it might even have been Eric Leeds). However,
I still prefer the released version. The early version is very piano driven and
somewhat sparse sounding by comparison. Though it does still sound very
similar. Personally, I think the track benefited from the 'full band' sound of the
released version. It gave it that celebratory jam feel that fitted with the finale
of the movie and later 'finale' songs like It's Gonna Be A Beautiful Night.

BorisFishpaw said:

I've never heard it. It's one I've always been interested in.

BorisFishpaw said:

Yeah, this is the type of stuff that Prince could release to his hard core fans, if he only had a website that he could post songs like this

Yeah, the early version of Raspberry Beret would be killer.
Also, I remember with Parade and ATWIAD all the awesome extended versions, How bout that longer version of Black Sweat, or at the end of Guitar, right when Prince really starts wailing on the guitar,then the song fades? I'd kill for some longer versions. Once again, all he needs to do is launch some time of online presence so he has a forum to release things like that to his fans

I don't know if Alternate / extended / demo versions from "When Doves cry" exit but if this is the case ...i'd like to hear these versions one day!!

I really want to hear "The Flesh" sessions from 1985.

and the full version of "Go"

and the studio version of "Roadhouse Garden"

alternates and demos exist, and are in circulation

The Divine

duggalolly said:

I thought "The Flesh" was a New Wave/Punk project done by Prince along his FIRST ensemble(Dez, Gayle, Andre etc) back in 1980

^All of the above - please...

Damn I would love to hear some new/old stuff.
No talk about it - no snippet, "just" the track!!

Harlepolis said:

No that's the Rebels

the Flesh is a different side of the Revolution basically
It's Gonna Be A Beautiful Night is a 'Flesh' grove
You Gotta Shake Something is a circulating boot

OldFriends4Sale said:

SO basically it's the Revolution playing NPG style music?

Thread title question is tough to answer, the only thing you can go for is song title, which really doesn't say THAT much. (e.g: ripopgodazippa is a fantastic sounding title but not so much a fantastic song). SO, going by songs already known, I say Like a Prayer, if that version actually exists....

Close second : Yo Mister

m3taverse said:

I know that some remixes exist by DJs and Kirky J but i know too that not even a second from alternate takes or demos are in circulation!!

Everybody Want What They Don't Got is the one I want to hear

scififilmnerd said:

what's with all that hating on The War ???

I like the track, it's spooky, weird.. but I love it.

GirlBrother said:

I didnt know he colaborated with Kylie, I know she met him as I saw her interviewed about it, she said he was sex personified, Id like to hear those two songs

Space (Rock Version) and full version of Cosmic Day would do me just fine

ernestsewell said:

I think we all want to hear Wally, especially after Susan Rogers' comments. Too bad it doesn't exist anymore.

There's a track from Intimate Moments titled "Let Me Tell U What I Might Do" which is a piano demo for Wednesday - I'd like to hear a proper studio version tho.

I wonder if P ever recorded his "own" version of Like a Prayer... but you can hear his drum programming, guitar, synths, etc all over the Like a Prayer 12" maxisingle - one of the versions includes a killer guitar solo at the end of it. There was a long thread about this @ housequake, which I wish I could find an archive of. Prince is ALL OVER that 12", uncredited.

Like A Prayer
Wally
Honest Man (Full vocal and instumental)

smokeverbs said:

It does exist. He rerecorded it for posterity.

ernestsewell said:

From what I understand, he re-recorded it after erasing the first "emo" multi-tracks. Right?

squirrelgrease said:

From my understanding.

The Divine

duggalolly said:

I was thinking 'How would I know which one I'd wanna hear the most, if I don't know what they sound like?' - But 'The Flesh' sessions are definately up there for me too.


As for 'The Divine' - I don't believe Prince's self-hype for a second!
