Best ballad on Prince (1979)?

When We're Dancing Close And Slow or With You or Still Waiting?

Always cry 4 love, never cry 4 pain.

When We're Dancing Close and Slow is my fave! It's so delicate and simple.

Admission is easy, just say you believe and come to this place in your heart... <3

This is such a beautiful album... I have to agree with a number of the other posts...for me, it's either
"When were dancing" or "It's gonna be lonely"... so hard to choose btwn the 2...if I had to, it would be "When were dancing"...just amazing!!(seductive yet sweet... just like Prince!!)

PurpleCreme	Agree with everyone else.. "It's Gonna be Lonely" and "When We're Dancing Close and Slow". Speaking of the latter, I know Prince was heavily inspired by Joni Mitchell.. There's a line on her Hejira record which has "dancing close and slow" in. I wonder if he was inspired by that. [Edited 11/19/16 12:35pm] Prince: 1958-infinity. Thank U for everything.
