I actually think that this is probably the 2nd most successful period in Prince's career.

-One Nite Alone Tour

- Rock N Roll Hall of Fame

-Musicology tour and album

-His last 4 albums debuted in the top 3, including his 1st ever No. 1 debut.

-Numerous T.V appearances

-3 Grammy Awards

-Golden Globe

-21 Nights in London's O2 Arena

-Coachella

-Montreux

-Monte Carlo shows

-Paris

He's been on quite a roll in the last 6 years or so.

Do this day I have never seen the SNL Fury. I have a friend who taped it; I will have to watch it next time I visit him.

I think the music released from 2004 to today has been great, especially when compared to the stuff from the late 1990s and early part of this decade.

1. Fury and Fury Snl
2. Chelsea Rogers
3. Love
4. Colonized Mind
5. Dreamer
6. Te Amo Corazon
7. Love
8. Guitar
9. Feel Good,Feel Better,Feel Wonderful
10. Lolita

There were a lot of good songs this decade, but how many that anyone other than us has actually heard (more of a popular greatest hits list)?

That list would be different than my favorites.
Maybe...

Musicology
Call My Name
Te Amo Corazon
Fury
Black Sweat
Future Baby Mama
The 1 U Wanna C (Someone told me they heard it on the radio
Old School Company (Leno)
Dreamer (Leno)
...?

Not exactly huge hits.

cool

prince wrote ten songs this decade?

skoolteecher said:

Nope. Eleven!

But one is "too good to be released".

not in any order

1.Planet Earth
2.Black Sweat
3.Te Amo Corazon
4.Fury
5.Musicology
6.Dance 4 Me
7.Call My Name
8.The Work
9.The One U Wanna C
10.Lolita

Interesting lists. I'm feeling a lot of them, and yet they also make me realize that this might be the decade with the most Prince songs that I actually DISlike. I just don't get how songs like these make people's lists:

The 1 U wanna C
Future Baby Mama
BL&B
I&C
Resolution!!!!

These were my cringe moments of the decade.

OTOH, I love

Fury (esp. SNL)
Black Sweat
Musicology
Family Name
Rainbow Children
Dreamer
Colonized Mind
Satisfied
Back to the Lotus

Also like:
$
U're gonna C Me (both)
Better With Time

Illusion, Coma, Pimp & Circumstance

musicology
rainbow children
somewhere here on earth
future baby mama
the 1 u wanna c
all the midnights in the world
4ever
colonized mind
HERE

This is going to be tough. I've probably tried to be a little too diplomatic, spanning several albums, but here goes:

The Everlasting Now
Have A Heart / Objects In The Mirror (always viewed these as one song)
Musicology
If I Was The Man In Ur Life
3121
Planet Earth
Somewhere Here On Earth
Colonized Mind
No More Candy 4 U
Elixer

Black Sweat
Call My Name
Guitar
Musicology
Dance 4 Me
Cinnamon Girl
Fury (Video Mix)
Dreamer
Last December
When Eye Lay My Hands On U

It's been a great decade especially since 2004.

I wasn't into the jazz stuff too much and One nite alone is probably my least favorite Prince album, but otherwise some fanastic music. No other artist satified me with as many releases.

At the Start of the decade I wouldn't have thought Prince would be my artist of decade but he was.

Dance 4 Me
The One U Wanna C
Black Sweat
3121
FUNK
Love
Chocolate Box
Love Like Jazz
Valentina
