Songs where Prince gives shout outs to other songs

I think its cool that he does this, I know a lot of artists do it but I was wondering the other day how many songs there were where he actually did it. I came up w/ a couple but this is not even a good start probably... can u think of any?

Hot Thing mentions "going to the Crystal Ball"

He samples his own songs in "My Name Is Prince", and "Partyman (Purple Party Mix)", and of course the extended mix of "Let's Work".

Prince gave my group (including me) a shout out at a concert once. Does that count? Prince said, "Where's the party at? We got the pimps over here." cool
99.9% of everything I say is strictly for my own entertainment
