Funky Prince songs...

To be honest, I have no idea what the genres of most Prince songs are. I just enjoy all the different kinds of music.
So, could someone please give me the name of a P song that is classic 'funk' so I can listen to it again and go, "Ah...' lol

Or mebbe more than one? biggrin

That's a good question. I don't know either but I would go along with Kiss.
Basically I suppose any song where the bass part is played with a lot and there's less melody. But I am but an amateur smile

I like the funky weapon remix of New Power Generation. It's the wah wah guitar. But classic?

Your choices are good. But you ain't drinkin' enough Robitussin if you don't do the chicken-neck while jamming to Gett Off.

I can't believe we forgot Head.

That's a punishable offence right there.

Mintage! Thanks guys! cool

I think that I already knew about 'Head', but some of the others are a bit of a shock, like 'Kiss'...

However, I do now have an excuse to listen to Gett Off again... >.>
