THE ONE!!!

Who loves this song like I do?! I'm really feeling this one early this morning. A really great selection off the NPG Soul album IMO. Terrific song. Just felt like giving appreciation for this one! biggrin Curious it isn't on youtube. confuse

I think there are live versions on youtube as part of "The Question of U."

It's great. Actually I've been listening to Newpower Soul quite a lot recently and I'm in the camp that thinks it's underrated. It may have been a disappointment at the time, but it stands up pretty well against his post-WB output.

The Census Bureau estimates that there are 2,518 American Indians and Alaska Natives currently living in the city of Long Beach.

Great song! There's something about that slow bass/beat that gets me every time.

I like it, and I love the album it came from. It's also one of my all time favorite Prince videos, though I think the beginning and end is embarrassingly stupid.

If you can't be nice to someone on the net, you probably ain't worth much talking to in real life either.

One of those songs I never cared much for until I heared it live. It was the opening track on the fantastic Brussels concert in 1998! And then once again he did it at the North Sea Jazz last year. If it hadn't been for those performances, I would have forgotten about this track long ago. As ballads go, this is 13 in a dozen. (That's a Dutch expression for nothing special in case you were wondering...)

I've always love "The One" though I've always preferred the studio version over Prince's live version of it. I know it's rare, but that's just me. biggrin

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.
