Songs you WISH there were EXTENDED versions of?

So many killer songs that you think "Christ, I wish there was an EXTENDED version of this so I could jam!"

For me:
- Sheila E - Hon E. Man
- Sheila E - Toy Box
- Lovesexy (I wanna hear the 12" version!!)
- Girls & Boys

Also, I wish the live extended versions of 'Let's go Crazy' and 'Baby, I'm a star' were on record.

That's a mighty good question. But a hard one. I'll have to get back to this.

Sexuality...There must be a longer version of this track as you can hear the drums come back in at the end of the fade on the LP.

It's such a tease! I bet the track went on for another 5 minutes of funk...HEEELLLP!

No but seriously U should consider to get some of those good old 12" ext. versions or try to find them as mp3's or something, because they are classic Prince tunes and U will love them.

Into The Light / I Will

needs to come back with a reprise of Into The Light.

turn it into something like ICNTTPOYM, with that mellow middle solo part.

Strange But True, similar to what he does on Just As Long As We're Together, finsih the vocals and just jam for ages - that would be sweet.

New position is indeed one that makes me itch.

And why do I always get the impression that Girls & Boyz is cut short by that edit?

Very good choices...

I would add to those:


If I Was Your Girlfriend,

getting the Thieves in The Temple treatment with an
entirely new external groove tagged on to the song
after the final words.


There Is Lonely,

simply because it is way too short. I would love this
song with extended jamming and some more verses of
dark depressed Prince musings.


Peach

He often plays it live with many shift in tempo, many
breaks and alternate lyrics and stuff. Usually clocks
in at around 6 or 7 mins. Celebration version was 10+
mins. One of those songs that sound much more alive &
better in concert. If he could capture that vibe in a
7 or 8 minute studio version, it would be ACE.


Dance On

Always feel like that could have done with some extra
bits here and there. It's such a thumping song. And it
does sound like it could go on into another vibe after
that "what color is your money today" chant.


Rockhard In A Funky Place

I don't know what to say about this. All I can say is
that I wish it would never stop.


Parade

Oh for fuck sake, just extend the entire album man. Give
me a 40 minute take on "New Position/I Wonder U" and I'll
be a good little girl.
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

This is what was cool about 1999; every song was given its full treatment and an "extended" version just means the album version. Exodus took it's time on a lot of tracks too...

The Question Of U there probably IS an extended version of this track in the vault, as it was almost a single

Girls & Boys love to hear a long funky jam version of this

Lovesexy huhhh-looovesexy! we know it exists, I just wanna hear it
