I think they made no mistakes, every act picked the right song, id love to see you on that stage doing better or on the same level

anyway this isnt an argument just stating facts lool xx

Id do little red corvette or When You Where Mine

I have been onstage with Prince and I did do better than Trey Songz, that's for sure!

Well, I haven't been on stage with Prince and I STILL would have done better than Trey Songz because I would have the good sense not to be up there trying to act like Will Smith in Men In Black 2...New Hotness...VS...Old and Busted!

@ the 1:25 mark in this video...

Bob George.

Ditto.

Just to say "That skinny mofo with the high voice. I just hope I can make it through it without laughing. LOL.

Moonbeam Levels, and afterwards I'd announce it from the forthcoming Prince album.

I know...wishful thinking.

i'd respectfully decline and suggest his life's work might be better honored with a well thought out academy awards style narration of his life's work to video stills and clips of the incredible career path of one of the greatest and most controversial musicians of all time.

couldnt bring myself to hog the limelight and flop around all over the stage in the presence of musical royalty, in an effort to cheapen the whole affair, but thats just me.

Manic Monday

Tough one...

I'd wanna duet with him for "Take Me With U"...this is how ya do it, Apollonia!

Or..."I Wanna Be Your Lover". No, I don't want to be Prince's lover. It's not that exclusive a club.

When You Were Mine - although, like When I Was Your Girlfriend, the lyrics are tough to re-write for a woman to sing.

In which case, maybe How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore.

Oh, I don't know about that. Ani DiFranco did a WONDERFUL job performing When You Were Mine! She slowed the temp down greatly (made it a beautiful slow song) and had Maceo performing right behind her. Have you heard it? Check it out below:

Didn't Cyndi Lauper do WHEN U WERE MINE as well? I remember enjoying it WAAAAY back in the day.

I'd go from Uptown Erotic City Paisley Park 3121

On piano plus vocals everyone has said that my best is Electric Intercourse. I doubt he'd be happy about me playing an unreleased song, though, so I'd probably play Sometimes It Snows In April.

On guitar plus vocals it would be Endorphinmachine, Bambi, Peach, Chaos And Disorder, Zannalee, Purple Rain, or Vavoom.

I hope I'll have the time in the next couple of days, 'cause I'm going to Turkey on holiday and there's loads of things to do til then, but I'll try!

I'd love 2 so that song "Solo" with a lead guitar thrown in 4 good measure.

I'd do Wedding Feast , just to piss the org off....

Diamonds & Pearls-just cuz I love it and For You-I could get away with it Prince would be making faces, but he'd love it

"Controversy"

RodeoSchro said:

I'm guessing the performers at the BET show picked their own songs, except maybe Patti. So if they did, they pretty much all made huge mistakes. But, maybe it's harder than it looks, so...

Assuming you can play and/or sing, what would YOU choose?

The Prince song I can perform best is "Strange Relationship" so that is what I will choose when they call me.

Controversy.

Aaahh... Connoisseur.

I'd go with Tamborine : « Guess that I'll stay at home all alone and play my tambori-i-i-ne!!! »

I would be open to any personal requests from Mister Nelson, that would be too awesome

haha that would be cool. And you know we woul be able to go and do whatever song he chose since we kow most of them by heart (released that is..hell a lot of unreleased too heh). He's be shocked ha.

I'd do the running man to Rope of Silicon.

Little Red Corvette, no question, it's not only a great prince song it is a great song of all time. I do perform it and people go nuts, and if they don't(rarely), I realize it's just a wierd audience.

that shit is true, i love prince, perform prince but in no way shape or form have i seen anyone, and know i don't do it like Prince, only Prince can truly perform Prince, ain't but one.

It would have to be Calhoun Square. I would probably do best with that song because it's kinda funky as far as the singing goes. No high notes to hit. It's a safe song, and you can also probably do a pretty funky dance routine too. Take me there if you dare, Calhoun Square!!

If I could sing well, maybe The Beautiful Ones or I Wish U Heaven.

Pop Life would be great too.

Vibrator... and I'd have a vibrator in the shape of Prince

And when it comes to the part where I'd have to "use" it and moan, I'd be behind a curtain that makes my shadow larger... like at the half-time show when he did Purple Rain.

I think that would run him out faster than anything else
