So, if someone came from a faraway country... ...and said to you, "hey, what's this 'Prince' guy all about? We've never heard of him in my country, but I only have enough room left in my iPod for one song."
One song.
To describe what Prince is.
Which song would you give 'em? |

Crystal Ball, it covers nearly every aspect of his musical talents. "Never let nasty stalkers disrespect you. They start shit, you finish it. Go down to their level, that's the only way they'll understand. You have to handle things yourself." | |

Purple Rain hands down. His signature (has the killer guitar solo, keyboard, strings, etc etc, right lyrics that include his spirituality & sexuality - somewhat with "weekend lover" line) Complete package
Yes, at 19, I finally saw the Revolution, a legendary band. And I talked to Wendy!!!  In addition to seeing Prince, I have now lived life. Thank you Purple People!! | |

I would say: "Make room on your ipod for 10 songs, that could give you a better idea. Don't worry, it's worth it!" | |

I'd probably have to say When Doves Cry (album version).
Lyrically, it's got the intense sexual bravado juxtaposed by a soft, gooey centre of confusion and vulnerability.
Musically, it's got the ice-cold Linn drum, it's got the snarling rock guitar, it's got a classically-inspired keyboard solo, it's got the stacked vocals, it's got the screams...
Yep, it's got it all. That'd be my pick. |

This is a tough one, because if they come from a country really far away, they might not have even heard of music.
I would give them Cybersingle, or a Gangster Glam Remix.

Hence my original thread [link removed by me], which was immediately locked.
[EDIT: my link linked to a totally different thread! Weird! If you're curious, you can type "if aliens came down" into the searchbox.]
