Private Joy

This would have been ten times better with an extended version.

It sounds like one of Prince's earliest pop songs, but extended it could have been a funk track like Sexy Dancer or I Wanna Be Your Lover.

I like the track a lot, but its dated badly. The synths are some of the most 80's sounding he used.

I love the "I strangled Valentino..." bit and I agree about the harmonies, probably make the track what it is.

Has he performed this live often? I cant find a live version anmywhere.

Great Track! For years my love for Let's Work made me ignore this song...but someting changed last summer...It was sunny, I was driving around listening to Controversy, Private Joy came on and just clicked with me...I've loved it ever since

NOTHING.



"Private Joy" should've been released as a single; light, vibrant, still funky..

This is one of the best, underrated songs of the eighties. "Private Joy" makes me do a go-go dance!! And yes, the harmony is incredible!! It just rocks!

It's nice to be on the same page with other Prince fans!

I was listening to that song in my car on the way to work this morning!! I still love that song!

Imagine the roar of surprise that would've erupted had he pulled that one out of his bag of tricks during one of the nights at last year's Celebration! omfg ... woot! woot!
