Ok. What are the Best Closing Lines to a Prince album?

What do you think are the Best Closing Lines to a Prince Album?
1) "welcome 2 satisfaction. Please remain awake until the aircraft has come 2 a complete stop. Thank u for flying the international ..."
2) "you're gonna have 2 fight your own damn war cause we don't wanna fight no more"
3)"the New Power Generation has just taken control"
4) "hold on 2 your soul, we got a long way to go"

I had this as my shutdown sound on a computer once. It booted up to the four hellos at the beginning of Hello, and the sound for various errors was the No! from Alphabet St.

I can't remember what else I put on it, but all the system sounds were from Prince.

I'm gonna go with the ending to the Black Album, though.

Once upon a time Apple wanted to get Prince to record the startup sound for the Mac.

Glad I wasnt the only fool that did this with their PC.

I had "Welcome to the Dawn................." as the intro.

And the guitar outro of Kiss for the shutdown.

With various "AUWAA"s and NO! for prompts.

Oh, good times. biggrin

"Welcome 2 the Dawn"
Awesome ending to the Gold Experience, considering he used "May u live 2 see the dawn" on the sleeve of so many previous albums. It was like he achieved this new level of artistry, freedom and spirituality, and he brought us along for the ride.

It´s rarely discussed here but I think the imperative "Come!" at the end of Strays of the World would have been a great ending for the Come album. It´s unfortunate that he decided against using that song as the closing song of that album.

-

I know many find Strays of the World a tad too bombastic and in the vein of Three Chains of Gold but I think it has great lyrics, a great, majestic and thick sound, the band is supertight and that last "Come!" is kind of missing one the released album. It would´ve sounded so much stronger had he used the song and its ending. That would have been a great way to end that album and would have added a lot to the concept album feel of Come.

-

Morris Hayes loved this song, too when he first heard it.

It is one of my favorite closing lines on a Prince album but I´m not sure if it counts since it wasn´t used for the album.

Of the released ones, I like the ending of Purple Rain (though the strings are a bit too long), and I like the ending of Lovesexy and Parade( All good things they say, never last
And love, it isn't love until it's past) . But the ending of Around the World in a Day is interesting, too (I have 2 go now. I don't know when I'll return. Goodbye.) . The Black Album closing line is probably the funniest. lol
