Fury-not a crap song but way better live.

Baby Knows-never liked it until I heard it live.

Song of the Heart-just say no to the studio version.

The One-Just not one of my faves. Liked on Musicology tour.

Electric Chair-I like the studio version but the live version is wayyyy funkier.

Lets Pretend Were Married-More energy live.

My Name Is Prince-The live version is just heavier and funkier.

Mr. Happy improved drastically live. To bad in the studio it is unbearable.

Kiss

Laydown is crap in the studio and crap live because it's a crap song.

But Kiss is always great live, and sometimes it's taken to another level like on the Sign O The Times and LoveSexy Tours. I've never understood why people think it sounds bad live.

Two studio songs I was never fond of until Monaco 8-13-09...The Love We Make and Eye Love U But Eye Don't Trust U Anymore. Both are incredible live. I was lucky to hear Eye Love U live at the Club Nokia in LA, but he took it to a whole new level at those Monaco shows.
