Kiss, short, catchy, infectuous, a classic (which I used to despise) . Close seconds would be Another Lover (could have been HUGE if UTCM didn't bomb), and the song utcm. Maybe do, just not like did before | |

As far as favorite, it changes all the time . I love the color I hear on Christopher Tracey's Parade all the sounds I hear something different every time. I'm glad the cover of the album is in black & white, because it make the music even more colorful . But I Wonder U is consistently my favorite . But also Girls & Boys, Sometimes It Snows In April, Mountains Long version of Kiss gives us Jill Jones and some of the Minneapolis sound | |

It's very hard for me to separate the parts from the whole on this one. I will say, however, that Kiss is my least favorite on that album. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

One of these days, I'm going to write a music theory essay on why Parade is Prince's greatest work. Never before, or after this album has his songwriting been so brilliant. | |

Sometimes it Snows in April -- definitely the best song on the album and one of the most important in his career, imo. It's great that he could song such an emotional song toward another man, even if it is just a character in a movie. It's so tender. New Position, I Wonder U, Kiss, and Anotherloverholeinyohead are all great. I don't understand all the love for Mountains. I know I'm in the minority on this. The lyrics are interesting, but the song is just tepid funk to me. "Love & honesty, peace & harmony" | |

Mountains!! | |

"Sometimes It Snows In April," "Mountains," "Do U Lie?," "Anotherloverholenyohead," and "Girls & Boys." If I have to pick one, "Sometimes It Snows In April." "She made me glad to be a man" | |

I love the album as a whole, but I really like the unreleased Wendy's Parade and Prince and Wendy duet I Wonder U. Danced to Venus de Milo with my Granny at my wedding. "I like to watch." | |

Shawy89 said: Mine would be 'Girls & Boys' One of my favorite Prince records. It was so different....truly a soundtrack vibe. Would love to hear a remaster of it. Kiss is pure genius, love G&Bs and Mountains. The quirky Do U Lie and UTCM. LCBSN is the only cut I don't like. Prince with this first rake business... That's an example of a song he need to go back and clean up for sure. A bunch of dam noise but I can hear some potential in it What a ballsy ass record as a whole though. Dance... Let me see you dance | |

I totally disagree. After hearing this song on vinyl, through audiophile headphones, I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND what he was doing. I've always enjoyed the song, but damn, that song is pure genius too! There is no flaw on Parade. That album is perfect, imo. الحيوان النادلة ((((|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|̲̅̅=̲̅̅|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|)))) ...AND THAT'S THE WAY THE "TITTY" MILKS IT!

There is no flaw on Parade. That album is perfect, imo. completely agree. the most "modern" sounding track on the album. A work of art ahead of it's time. Today's alternative rock artist would kill to create a track like this today. I play the hell out of this track in the car. By plays alone probably my favorite track right now [Edited 7/22/14 16:37pm] | |

ARock said: V10LETBLUES said: How this album feels so new and fresh after all of these years and s amazing. I can't choose one as all sound equality great to me. This is an album that has a permanent place in my car. This is an album that I can listen with strangers in a car and not cringe at cheesyness or cornines. My favorites at the moment are Life Can Be So Nice, Mountains, I Wonder U and Do You Lie. [Edited 7/20/14 10:54am] I agree 100% I agree 200% both of you! def still feels fresh and a completely different sound than anything in the last 28 years since it's debut. I love the different horn arrangements and the offset drumbeats, quirky voices and kind of a Parisian funk feeling. It's so hard to pick a fav, I do love the full version of kiss, but it's really a toss up between 'life can be so nice' and 'mountains' | |
