Which rocks harder?

Which song is a more successful (artistically, not commercially) attempt at rock - I'm Yours, Bambi or Dreamer? Even though it 'borrows' a bit too much from Hendrix's Voodoo Chile, I'd go for Dreamer simply because the falsetto used in the other two seems a bit 'soft'. Any thoughts?

Bambi of course,Dreamer is more of a blues rocker.Bambi is pure hard rock containing one of the best riffs in rock music

the Bambi riff is killer but the overall guitar work throughout Dreamer is better. I'm taking Bambi though. the falsetto doesn't diminish the "hardness" of a track by the way. the contrast is actually cool

The guitar and bass in I'm Yours is superior out of the 3, but Bambi is the most fun to listen to.

What about Glam Slam? That's like the best song ever!

Interesting thread. I love all three songs, but the solo in Dreamer seals it for me. I would also add Endorphinmachine to the list which i think is Prince's best hard rock song.
