elements of songs prince has re-used to make new songs

hi all, after reading a previous post bout the max / rave using the same guitar riff, i was wondering which other prince songs (if any) share the same music?

The point is the question posed on the thread, not your misunderstanding of what Bach 'invented'.

I hate to agree with langebleu, but he's right!!

Some of the hooks in 'She's always in my hair' are taken from 'Sex Shooter'
Some song from 'Graffitti Bridge' recycles 'Anotherlover'

Most obvious one is easily Batdance and 200 baloons

and he's still reusing "2", "4" and "U" in his song titles (this prince song has been brought to you by...)

You know how Digital Underground "Sex Packets" sampled that second last bar of "She's Always In My Hair" guitar solo? Some people thought they were hearing the main synth hook from Apollonia 6's "Sex Shooter". Same.
