Prince Mix I'd be embarrased to blast with Windows Down

Ok, there's been a lot of hate flowing here lately - so I thought I'd offer a lighter side to it all. Which songs would you be embarrased to blast on your car stereo w/ your windows down for others to hear?

This is NOT a list of BAD prince songs - as I actually love some on this list, but just ones you'd be a bit squirmish about if u're cruising trying to look cool...

In No Paritcular Order:

1. Solo

2. Wedding Feast

3. Everbody Loves Me

4. Strollin'

5. God

6. Jack U Off

7. Free

8. La La La....he he he (particularly the barking)

9. If I could Get Your Attention (Matye on lead vocals)

10. Graffiti Bridge

11. Be my Mirror

12. White Mansion

13. Eye Love Funky Music

14. Rave Un2 The Joy Fantastic

15. No More Candy 4 U

I wouldn't be embarrassed to play any of them in my car (or anywhere else for that matter), I don't give a stuff what anyone thinks of what I'm playing, plus if I'm in the car they'll only have to hear it for a few seconds anyway (usually).

I've probably played all of those to others (at home) at some point or another.

The only one I sometimes think twice about is God. The "Bloop blap bleh bleurgh hoo oohwihoo" bit always causes a bad reaction (which is often why I play it).

I've to go out shopping now, so I've just made your playlist (except Wedding Feast, because I just refuse to listen to it) on my mp3 player and will be blasting it on the way to and from the shops. Call it a social experiment.

Lemmy, Bowie, Prince, Leonard. RIP.

Fun stuff and I totally get what you are saying. I have some old Motown stuff like the EARLY Temptations that has literally had people laughing out loud because they thought it was H.O.R.R.I.B.L.E. But I almost never play this kind of music for other people to see if they like it becuase I know they wouldn't/won't.

All that being said, how is La La La on this list? I mean you could just as easily throw Sister -Lady Cab Driver (come on the ending.....) - Ronnie Talk To Russia - Orgasm - oh there's so many more I would put on there before that one.....

ha! predicted this one - as my post was totally in jest. the idea of "looking cool" "cruising" with the windows down is an absurd one on its own - so it's the spirit of the whole post. go with it.

Yea - u're probably right on that - I'd replace it w/ "Trust." I was mainly thinking about the barking. That'd weird folks out at a stoplight.

Wait - what if you made a mix CD that went from the "Flipper" part of Animal Kingdon right into the intro of the Fat Boys version of Wipe Out and just looped it.

Talk about cool points....

That shit would make em flock to your car like white on rice....

Uh - Fenwick... really? You make me laugh! If I was bumping the Flipper Wipe Out Remix, that is what would get your party started?

LOL! And as a follow up remix could we mash together the creepy laugh on Temptation with Monster Mash? Ugh....

I'm assuming you mean songs that the biggest reaction. Apart from the fact it is rude to blast music I would blast away coz the older I get I just think "What a bore". Apart from the rave on to the joy bollucks-Ithink that's quite a good list and I've often used "God" to shut people up. When they don't like it I satisfy myself that they are crap.

In fact you have given me a whole new passtime. Not feeling particularly great at the mo so i might wind people up with a bit of genius.

My Name is Prince, and anything with the lyrical rap-stylings of the Rev. Tony M - although I understand that he has quite the following here wink

Graffiti Bridge is another contender....
