Latin songs by Prince

Fews years back , with Mayte and Manuela as princes wife's ...
There was a latin sting to many songs ... Some of my favorites are , are te amo corezon, damned if I do, and I really believe Beverly 77 has a latin theme to a song actually by Frank Sinatras My Way , but spanish versions by a couple of latin artists. I'm sure I'm not the only latin fanatic of prince. ...
One of my favorite latin artists is Juan gabriel .
What do y'all orgers think about prince remaking Juan Gabriel's songs, or perhaps a duet. Either would be a win win.
Both are very talented artists. And I believe both artists are not appreciated like they should be.

Prince does a decent cover of soul sacrifice, too. I wouldn't mind that being on an album.

The Everlasting Now has a nice latin breakdown in the middle of the song. As for Beverly 77, great song but I get an Italian vibe from it. Juan Gabriel is a great singer. Love his songs "por que me haces Llorar?" and "la diferencia". Such passionate songs!!!!
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

Noon Rendezvous (Glamorous Life) has a Latin vibe

Cindy C (Black Album)

Get On the Boat (3121)

Te Amo Corezon (3121)

.

I don't care for 'too obvious' Latin sounds in Prinec's music: Noon Rendezvous/Cindy C work,

Get On the Boat (I like the song but it's too obvious) along with Te Amo Corezon

"Damned If I Do"

"1999:the new master"

"The Everlasting Now" (already mentioned!)

The influence is in a bunch of other songs i can't recall at the moment.

Wives.

Prost!

Juan Grabriel is the prince of Latin America... seria un sueno que Prince cantara una cancion de Juan Grabriel y de otros artistas Mexicanos.

The "Everytime" song he gave Bria Valente has a slight latin feel as well.
