1. Sexuality (for pure funk) 2. Endorphinemachine (for raucous rock) 3. She's Always in my hair (inventiveness to the nth degree) 4. Let's Go Crazy (classic all round for hooks and solo) 5. Colonized Mind (showing he still has the goods with a bluesy feel)
Honestly too many to list but these are the 5 that pop to my mind right in this moment. "I'm not human I'm a dove, I'm ur conscience. I am love" | |

Creep is not a riff. a riff is recognisable rhythm guitar line. Riff is what you hear at the beggining of All Right Now by Free for example. If we are talking about rock riffs prince didn't do many ,but he done some classic rock riffs like Top five in my opinion are Bambi -amazing stuff
When U Were Mine -very simple but instant classic and memorable riff every kid would find it cool playing it on guitar ,even grown ups
She's Always in My Hair -very simple again but great
Computer Blue-great funk hard rock riffs
Interactive-odd choice but still great if we talk about funk guitar riffs Prince have them plenty. 2oten is full of classic funk riffs.

No it's not but I love the solo so I included it since I never see it included as a great piece of guitar work.
What about "I'm Yours?"
