Which Prince song reminds you most of a past relationship?

Listening to a Prince song I haven't listened to in ten years, because it was too painful---"I Hate U" off the Gold Experience, which of course, is about anything other than hate...shows the ambivalence of emotions in a deep relationship and the flip-side relationship of love...the love/hate, yin/yang component...and even after all these years...it brings tears to my eyes. Would like to know what other fans experiences are!

Thanx so much for your responses. I am now listening to the Come album. But I want to leave some lyrics that so reminded me of a relationship (20 years!) that just ended from "I Hate U":

Did U do 2 your other men(women)/ The same things that U did 2 me'/ Right now I hate U so much I wanna make love until U see/ That it's killin' me baby 2 be without U/ Cuz all I ever wanted 2 do was 2 be with U/ I hate U because I love U/ But I can't love U because I hate U... "

I always think about the song amillion Days, cause when I had a man in my life it felt like I wasn't being true to myself, he was real mean to me most the time, thinking about not being present in my own life is a scary feeling, but I also had to be a bit numb to deal some of the trouble my eyes have seen confused

Yes! Absolutely that one too! I just heard his version of Bonnie Raitt's song the other day, and it made me tear up and smile at the same time!

Strange Relationship.

Right after the relationship ended, I listened to the song in a live version from some Hawaii tour/concert. In a weird way, the music made me happy and cheerful... I was glad the relaionship was finally over, and the music made me wanna go crazy dancin'!!

all my past relations have had to deal with me being a fam....Some songs are painful but over time i have been able to build up an emotional tolerance and detached the girl from the song.....
