Prince's prettiest song? (Closely followed by 'Pink Cashmere').

I wish, I wish, I wish there was a longer version of this song. B E A U T I F U L.

I Wish U Heaven 1, 2, 3 is 10 minutes long on the 12" and cd single.

Yes I have the 3" CD single released in UK in 1988:

W7745CD 921 074-2 FRANCE WE 731

Track 1: Eye Wish U Heaven Parts 1, 2 and 3.
Track 2: Scarlet Pussy

TYrack 2 is not mentioned on either the CD or the inlay.

is Scarlet pussey the long version as found on the 12" or the single edit also found on the 7"?

that must be sweet..I only have the 12 inch vinyl..well, and that 12 inch fan set version.

Long version reads 6'11".

Is it the 7" version on The B-Sides CD? That clocks in at 4'18".

"I got peace-sign sneakers, pleaded slacks,
don't fuck with me, I''ll slap yo...aaass"


I agree, the original sounds very pretty and,
I don't know, it has a certain magic about it.
It's the very song that got me into Prince in
1988.

That long 10 minute version was like "What the
hell is this?".

Fishtail! -gotta love that.

sorry langebleu, but I don't understand your answer. Reading back, my question wasn't exactly clear. What I meant to ask was this: Is the version of Scarlet pussey on your I wish u heaven cdsingle the 4.18 version or the 6.11 version? I'm hoping it is the long version since I saw a place on internet where I might be able to buy that cdsingle. I will if Scarlet pussey is the long version.

6:11 version it is.

long version

I would LOVE to have this on cd

I have the vinyl and it's my alltime favorite 12".

Thanks to one too many spins during late nite benders, my copy is less than perfect...

Sweet Baby is awesome live. I only heard this on one of the 1993 boots from act I show. Too bad he only did a few lines of the song, but is was beautiful.

check please!

Cheers guys; I've got the Extended CD single version but I'd love to have a longer take of the album version. Schweet it is! There again, it's perfect as it is.

Considering how much I love the album version, I'm not that fussed on the extended remix. It' cool, but gimme the original anyday.

(There is actually a bootleg version of the original which features about ten seconds of extra music. Not much different, though).

Thought of another song to put in 'Prince's Sweetest Song' category - 'And God Created Woman'. *Sigh*

I still have that too and the 12". I wish Warner would do what Sire did with all Madonnas old 12" and release them all on CD.

I remember back about 6 years ago
WB was going to release every vinyl
maxi-single on individual cds.
I also remember pre-ordering about
half of them (cuz they were set to be
released only in Japan, therefore,
a tad expensive!) online at WOM or somewhere.
About two months later I got an e-mail
stating that my order had to be cancelled
due to the cds no longer being released

I was saddened but strangely relieved

Very cool song, unlike anything he's done...

But the extended single...now, that's the SH**T!!
Very funky, great groove...

Take this beat, i don't mind...got plenty
others, and they so fine...take my coffee, but don't u
touch my cream, make me holla, make me scream...

I think he's saying "I got plenty others, and they're so fine".

Isn't it "P size sneakers" and "pleated slacks"?
