Diamonds & Pearls has always been my favorite song ever and I know other fans who like it but I'd never met another who said it was her favorite until last weekend i was playing it at work and another employee there started telling me how her brother was a Prince fan and that's how she became one and that Diamonds & Pearls was also her favorite song It kinda made me feel all mushy inside Okay....you may throw 's now Anyway, the song

Any love for D&P is cool with me

Is not any kind of evil sarcasm is just that i do not remember which one was the second and third song i ever heard from him first was Purple Rain, then is Call my Name, as far as i remember then Diamonds or Somewhere here on earth

Rosie Gaines stole the show on this song...

indeed...but I still gotta show Prince some love too

Prince & Rosie magic.

My absolute least favorite track of all his "hits".

Everytime it comes on at work everybody thinks I (the Prince fan/freak) must be digging it.
But, no. I get more enjoyment from Jughead than from D&P.

Not trollin', just sayin'...

I love this song:

Diamonds & Pearls is such a classic... such a beautiful song, very romantic..

1 of the last truly amazing 1990's-singles,

(with Gett Off, Cream, Insatiable, 7, Sexy MF, TMBGITW, I Hate U, Gold being some of the others).

Wow the first half of the 90's were just incredible, so many strong single releases.

^ exactly..

I like the track but I dislike Rosie Gains profoundly, she's like fingernails down a chalkboard to my ears.

From the Diamonds & Pearls era..

Prince was so good looking, right?

The musical sophistication of this song is astounding.

I too love this song.

Infact even my wife who is not a prince fan (she is mostly into Bollywood music ) absolutely love this one.

I liked this song when it came out,but for some reason,I can barely tolerate it these days.It's a good song,great lyrics/message...but it sounds so corny to me nowadays.

It's a masterpiece from the double kick drum at the start from classic Rosie Gaines vocals to the Beatles horn break.. Brilliant composition and outstanding arrangement... Songs like this will live on forever as an example of one of the greatest musicians that ever lived!

I love this...it really is one of those unforgettable songs. I mean 20 something years after first hearing it the song still brings me joy and that's a beautiful thing.

spiritual masterpiece
