All of them, with Tony M. edited out wherever he tried to take a shit.

"Love 2 The 9s", "The Morning Papers", "And God Created Woman", "I Wanna Melt With U", "3 Chains O' Gold", "The Max". You can nix "Arrogance", and the segues. I really love the record in general.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

The Sacrifice of Victor because it's Prince & The NPG doing what they do best: fonk'n. And he actually has a story to tell here.

At last! Poor ole Love 2 the 9's getting blanked up in here! omfg lol

Love 2 The 9's is actually in my top 3 Prince songs of all time any given time. His falsetto in the very end is the best falsetto during the age of Pop/R&B during 80's & 90's. I've even done a thread about the song before.

This was the album that really got me into Prince. I know the segues are a bit silly and we can do without Tony M on Love 2 The 9's but it's still flawless to me.

.

If I had to choose one song it would And God Created Woman - timeless classic.

All of them! No, seriously. ALL OF THEM! It's one of those fine albums of his that I just put on and let play all the way through to the end.

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

The album that took me from casual fan to obsessed.

I love every track on this album. So eclectic. Perfect flow.

If I was forced to choose, it would be 7.

This album made me give up on Prince for a while. I like most of the singles now (except "My Name Is Prince"), but that's about it. "Sexy MF" is my favorite.

There are a bunch of songs I like on that album but Tony M . the silly segues and the questionable lyrics of songs such as The Morning Papers and I Wanna Melt With U make it a bit difficult to fully enjoy the experience. Still love those songs though....just don´t like the lyrics that much due to their content.

One of my fav cd's. I love every song! I guess if I had to choose one it would be 2 the 9's, but really, the entire cd rocks!! 7 is an awesome song too.

Same here! I never really gave it a lot of love over the years. Now I listen to it constantly, I love it. My top 3 favs on this album are Love 2 the 9's, 7, and The Morning Papers.

From now on, 4 U I shall be wild 💜

Yes, I agree with that, the lyrics of those two songs are a bit dubious... I guess meeting this young girl Mayte didn't bring out the best in him... But then again, I have to admit that some of the songs he wrote for/about her on Emancipation are absolutely gorgeous... But on this album... confused

This is my favorite Prince album so it's hard to pick as I love it all the way through for the most part but I think 'I Wanna Melt With U'.

Ask me tomorrow and it might be 'The Max' or 'Love 2 The 9's'... biggrin

It was my first album, from the point of view of being a fan and buying the new album. Diamonds and Pearls was current when I became one, but it had been released in the weeks before I was a Prince fan, meaning when it came out I could not have cared less, but the time of Love Symobol it was like "Oh that is Prince's new shit, I have got to get that, because it has the Sexy MF song on it".

.

Ranking all the songs on it.

.

1. Damn U 10/10

2. The Morning papers 9/10

3. Sexy MF 9/10

4. 3 chains o Gold 9/10

5. 7 9/10

6. And god created woman 8/10

7. Love 2 the 9s 8/10

8. The Continental 8/10

9. I wanna melt with you 8/10

10. Sweet Baby 7/10

11. My name is Prince 7/10

12. The Max 7/10

13. The Sacrifice of Victor 6/10

14. Blue Light 5/10

15. Arrogance 4/10

16. The Flow 3/10

Segues - Not rated.

Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name

This is extremely tough because it's chock full of great music.

I tried to pick one. But I couldn't. So narrowed it down to a 4-way tie. razz

Morning Papers - Damn U - 7 - Blue Light
