I hate it when people ask a question (even if it's stupid) asking about people's opinions and DON'T START OFFERING THEIR OWN.

^ Also add Man In A Uniform (The Truth)...also the demo version of I'll Never Be Another Fool (where he talks about not opening his legs to a man lol).

I would also vote Others Here With Us and Soul Psychodelicide

I do like the strange songs though, shows his creativity and imagination!

I guess its only natural that his weirdest album, Rainbow Children, also contains his weirdest song: Wedding Feast.

It sure doesn't take much to ignite your hate! Maybe he is just generous and doesn't want to push his own opinions in our faces. You I expected to appreciate this exact thing.

GOD, I'm glad somebody said that.

I mean, I know the album was DIRTY MIND, and I know at that particular point in time that he was out for nothing more than shock value, but really, Prince?...incest?...oh yeah, he got his shock value alright, and he DAMN sure achieved his wierdest song EVER! with this.

And Dance With The Devil (the full length version). Those two songs together work very well when you're looking for weird Prince.

I love Temptation and Had U, so.. ehh, can't roll with those.

I guess Orgasm/Poem. But not the same kind of weird as the first two.

Some of the tracks on Exodus are definitely roaming the outskirts of weird. The full-length Hallucination Rain ain't what I'd call normal, anyway.

The entire Kamasutra album. lol

But, ya know, a lot of SOTT was weird compared to everything else that was out at the time. shrug

I have always found "I Would Die 4 U" disturbing, particularly given its placement on the album between two purportedly autobiographical songs. Did the dude really think he was the Messiah?

By contrast, I don't really find "Sister" that weird, but maybe it's because I never had a sister.

Well, I disagree, it's a great song. Unsettling is good, 00's Prince is conformity.

I alwys thought that "Tambourine," and "Dance On," were a little weird, but still very entertaining. I think these two songs are kind of funny.

It's an uphill climb to the finish line.

Oh, it doesn't seem to take much to make him/her angry. But Hey, at least someone understood... thumbs up!

When i think of 'weird', i think off: (strangely) different from the majority of his material.

Sometimes it snows in april / Power Fantastic: because he dares to keep the arrangement low-key and the instrumentation sober. He not often does that. Sometimes his (later) arrangements can be too bombastic and vegas-like. Unfortunately he did that too with the live version of Sometimes..

Purple and Gold / Wedding Feast / Graffiti Bridge / Strays of the world.. for obvious reasons.. lol

There's others here with us / Crystal Ball: two almost dream / nightmare-like songs, using sound effects and unusual instrumental elements.

Blue Light / Ripgodazippa: Face it Prince, you are no Bob Marley.

Three Chains of Gold: Face it Prince, you are no Freddie Mercury or Brian May. Cause and Effect also has some surprising prog-rock / symphonic rock elements in the instrumental coda by the way.

Orgasm.. but its not really a song, more like a 'soundscape'
