'Take Me With U' - It's constant appearance on tours..

..Was it a good enough song for all the play it seemingly got? Yes or no?

I've shed many tears of joy watching Prince perform this song live over the years.

LOVE it!

Fan favourite from his biggest album, minor hit, singalong chorus, killer drums. Plus it's addressed to "you" so it seems like Prince is singing to the audience and the audience is singing to him. Who wouldn't wanna?

Yes, of course! Because Prince loved getting his audiences to sing with...for...and to him. That song just naturally made that happen.

I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart.

I can still remember hearing this song on my walkman in 1984.
It was crisp and sharp and happy and so alive.
All the music on that album is so futuristic and timeless that Take Me With U is still so fresh.
I think that's why it was such a great song for live shows.

It's easy for "normal" people to sing (ie, Apples too) and it got the crowd involved.

It also has that back and forth chorus....and I think he loved hearing people sing "take me with you" back to him.

Welcome to "the org", laytonian… come bathe with me.

If he could play Kiss and Cream all the time then Take Me With U qualifies too. Good song to get the crowd involved.

The epitome of a concert sing-a-long song. Catchy, melodic and easy to sing to.
