Some interesting choices!!

Dont know about those for myself. Mine would be

15. i like it there

14. live 4 love

13. wall of berlin

12. the morning papers

11. endorphine machine

10. shhh

9. dolphin

8. thunder

7. colonized mind

6. dreamer

5. eye hate u

4. peach

3. sexy mf

2. my name is prince

1. 7

number 15 was a tossup between i like it there, insatiable, the holy river and money dont matter so that would change depending on my mod for that day. The others are hands down my favorites

Well, obviously not the same as I'd come up with (and I assume that while they say post-80s, they really mean post-first name change, or after Prince got mad at WB, or after Prince stopped having hits, or something, since nothing's included pre-Come).

"Dionne" and "The Marrying Kind" are two I'm really fond of, though, and I rarely see them getting mentioned, so I like those choices.

Exactly.

This list rather looks like an april fool than a serious list from some1 that has a clue.

according to anyone who follows music these days, nobody reads rolling stone anymore

Dionne?

Nobody's going to agree on this list, 15 is too difficult to narrow down to.

really bizarre, random list.

i like several of the choices on the list. i'm just glad it may get some folks diggin' into his back catalogue and even getting the hint to him that ppl know stuff beyond the hits. but no Space, Pheremone but Loose? I like the track but its not better than those, and I'dve liked to see them include some Lotus tracks. Should've been a list of 20 or 25!

ahh what the hell

15? impossible.

But here goes:

7

The Morning Papers

And God Created Woman

Space

Pheromone

Shhh

The One

She Loves Me 4 Me

The Last December

Reflection

Love

3121

F.U.N.K.

Dreamer

Colonized Mind

3121

Dreamer

Colonized Mind

These are all good picks.. although I'd chose the title track Come with Space rather than Pheromone. And The Dance rather than 3121

Their list is as random as any of ours.

I'll give it a shot:

Joy in Repitition

Question of U

Crystal Ball

Acknowledge Me

When The Lights Go Down

7

The Love We Make

What Do U Want Me To Do?

Somewhere Here on Earth

Dreamer

Willing & Able

Endorphinmachine

Days of Wild (live)

Same December

Da Bang

The Word

$

Still Would Stand All Time

In This Bed I Scream

Chelsea Rogers

Dream Factory

Love

Billy Jack Bitch

Wall of Berlin

Face Down

3121

A Million Days

Supercute

Elephants & Flowers

As some of these songs are really 80s songs but released post 80s I added a few more than 15

WOO HOO, I co-wrote #2.

There would never be anything even closely resembling a concensus among fans or critics for a list like this though.

Much kudos to you sir. Love that track.

What a difference twenty years makes. Pretty sure Loose was lambasted at the time as being cheesy and out of touch, not "forward thinking". I can imagine more of this type of article as we leave 80s nostalgiaville and his 90s work is reappraised.

15 songs since the name change? We can't agree on a single disc Emancipation so there's no way anyone here would come up with a list that even one person agrees with. Everything is so personal and subjective.

how is black sweat a deep cut ? it was a single

MrMoops said:

I agree with Dinner With Dolores, and certainly Dione and Somewhere here on Earth, but the rest are very WTF

Van Gogh

When The Lights Go Down

When I Lay My Hands On U

Empty Room

PFunk

Let It Go (Sherm Stick Edit Instrumental)

Wasted Kisses

What Do U Want Me 2 Do?

Strays of the World

Soul Sanctuary

Joy in Repitition

Question of U

Beautiful Strange

Octopus Heart

From The Lotus/Boom/Crimson & Clover

There's more I could add, but that is what you call a "deep tracks" list.

"7" was a top 10 hit, not exactly a "deep cut".

That's pretty cool! I always loved the horn part on that one and it's one of the best tracks on the album even if the lyrics are a bit Michaeljacksonian-the press-is-out-to-get-me! But that's not your fault of course. Also like to see Dionne in the list, another forgotten gem. But When Lay My Hands on U also belongs in the list!

I'd say the horns are the best part of BJB, so a big thumbs up to MrMoops on that one. And I'm glad someone else likes Dionne.

My little attempt at this in no particular order. Cheated to include NPG Exodus stuff, but as its an album I absolutely love there's no way I can leave those off my list
