I agree with the OP's "Fame" and "Working Day and Night". Also, "Creep" either a studio version, or the live version from 2008.

3. Running down a dream - tom petty (has a certain prince feel to it)

4. Come as you are - Nirvana (again, just think it would sound awesome)

5. Buffalo Soldier - Bob Marley

6. sound of silence - simon and garfunkel

7. who'll stop the rain - CCR (he already did proud mary, so...)

8. Enjoy the silence - Depeche Mode

9. Long may you run - Neil Young

10. California Blue - Roy Orbisson

11. sailing to philadelphia - Mark Knopfler

12. Baby - justin bieber ( just because it would be so out of nowhere smile )

It was not in vain...it was in Minneapolis!

Ya know, I'd love that just for the sheer backlash it would get! lol

"I never want to stop singing this song!" Prince in Montreal, 12/2/11, just before performing Purple Rain

I'd love to hear him do cinnamon girl by Neil Young.
I don't always listen to music. But when I do, I prefer Prince.

Unique, it's 3am and I'm sat at work but your post just made me chuckle quite loudly. Just how did you remember that god awful list so readily? Guilty pleasures?

If I were to add anything then it'd be Soap Bar by Goldie Looking Chain. Maybe even a video release of Your Mother's Got A Penis.

Club Tropicana, MmmBop, I'm Too Sexy?

Still laughing at some of your suggestions. Chico Time wink Suoerman! God help me, I can see him doing the moves! Cheeky Girls! "giggling like a schoolgirl"

Thanks for that Unique.

Please don't encourage the man!

Prince is one artist who should NEVER release covers on an album.

The day prince "died" for me was when i saw the 4 covers on Emancipation.
