PrintableThe diversity is one thing I have always loved about Prince music and the fans. Many of these songs are some of my favorites and I am sure some of my least favorite songs are someone else's favorites. I do not see how you can dismiss the entire 90s. Some great songs came from 90s.
I love Let's Pretend We're Married the song and his Mick Jagger impersonation in the video.
One fan's Joy in Repetition is another fan's Jughead.

Don't hate your neighbors. Hate the media that tells you to hate your neighbors. |

I cringe any time I hear "International Lover"...feels like one hyper-extended, corny double-entendre aural assault. The over-abundant squeals (which, of course, I love like most others, but in this song, it all seems superfluous)...but most of all, the grammatical horror of the "...I anticipate a few turbulence along the way..."lyric. I just can't with that..ever. "...'IN A SENSE,' he said, 'you're alone here... so if you jump, you best jump far'..." | |

There are several I skip every time - "My Name is Prince" comes to mind - but for pure hatred, the version of "I would Die 4 U" they play on the radio, where they separate it from "Baby I'm a Star" with that abrupt echo-y reverb ending. HATE. IT.
And, naturally, PR is one of those albums I lost when my digital collection was lost several years ago, so in my grief I purchased it on iTunes the day he died - and it has the radio version I hate.  [Edited 7/12/16 22:37pm] | |

I lost track after 1994 a little so will restrict my list to 78-94. Sexuality - Dull Graffiti Bridge - pure cheese Diamonds & Pearls - See above My Name Is Prince / Sexy MF - I thought the Symbol album was more like old Prince after the commercial D&P. These opening songs are still are 'trend chasing' in my opinion. |

I don't really hate any but I'm done with Purple Rain & I really am not keen on the recorded version of Crimson & Clover - his voice is too high. | |

There are a few over the years but two of the the "big songs" that were played over and over that I just can't see the fuss over are "7" and "Glam Slam". |

This is one of my favorites but I do find it one of his saddest songs. | |

. You are right about all those songs except for "Sexuality". . Have you seen the 1982 capitol theatre performance of it?

Yup, that's the case across all digital platforms, they use the single edit. I like the single edit meself but it has no place on the album. The PR CD can be picked up for peanuts though. | |

Peach (Zzzzzz)
Satisfied Elixer Any of the explicit early songs really. For the same reason that Prince didn't like watching television anymore. 'It's hard. They don't leave much up to the imagination, but seem to be out to shock. I don't get shocked easily.' LOL 
I love My Name is Prince. It's fun. And RNR Love Affair in the live version from Kimmel. It's a tad boring on the cd imho.[Edited 7/13/16 2:59am] | |

I don't hate any Prince song. Hate is a very strong feeling. Here are some I don't like though.
Lady Cab Driver: Don't understand the hype over this song. Extraloveable should've taken it's place. Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad: Sounds like such a bad 2nd attempt at I Wanna Be Your Lover Annie Christian: No explanation needed. Delirious: It's kinda annoying to me Take Me With U: I think the song isn't bad but Appollonia ruins it for me and it's the least memorable song from Purple Rain IMO Half of ATWIAD Most of Emancipation Rave Un2/In2 The Joy Fantastic Some songs on SOTT
