Prince's best vocal....

Ill probably be crucified for this, but in my opinion, the best singing he has put on record is on the single version of the most beautiful girl in the world. A brilliant falsetto, and some great ad-libbing towards the end.

Other noteable mentions are Adore (of course), the beautiful ones, power fantastic and avalanche. Any one disagree or can think of any others?

Oh yes, Power Fantastic is a good example!

Also, maybe Pink Cashmere. Kind of unusual but at least interesting vocals.

and the way he sings "the beautiful ones they hurt you every time"

and "U make me so confuuused,the beautiful ones,U always need to looose"

I don't understand why no one likes TMBGITW, I think it is SO wonderful on the Gold experience album. I also like God because it is so over the top and the beautiful ones:)
Personally . I think we are all Boring with No Lives cause all we do is talk about Prince,Criticize and Gossip. I need a Horny Man is what I Need and probably so do most of yas. We are Sexually Frustrated what we R... Amen..!!! - zelaire

i do! i do! i think this is one of the best vocally, in my opinion. tied with condition of the heart. adore comes in second (or third, if you're counting the other two separately..)

Janey, I always thought it was "If you were a whore I'd go all the way". I like that version much better.

prince's voice

had more of

a pure sweetness

2 it at the

beginning of

his career

the way he

layered his

vocals on his

first 2 albums

was pure magic

as his career

moved along,

i began 2

notice anger

in his vocals

however, adore,

domebaby, and

whenwe'redancingcloseandslow

are beautiful
