1999 is brilliant.

Perfect album opener

How could anyone say 1999???

Surprised to see "1999" showing up so much. I love that song. One of the great album openers of all time. Gonna have to co-sign on "Delirious" though. I think that's my least favorite track on my favorite Prince album.

Baby I am a star

(I like it, but there are lots of obscure tracks I would prefer over it)

bat dance, housequake, gett off, The Most Beautiful Girl In The World remix and mayte version (sorry mayte), Kiss, Delirious, 1999, My name is prince

all of graffiti bridge, Rasberry Beret, if i was your girlfriend, party up

I guess u r right rdHull... another troll post?

The most beautiful girl in the world and Diamonds and Pearls. Heard the first time, tried a second time and have been skipping them since then... Sorry, but I find them cheesy.

Should this person be banned?

They didnt even state why..but i dont want to even hear/entertain the reasoning.

Ha Ha Ha....Yeah I think they should be banned too

I like these songs

Delirious
Let's Go Crazy

Kiss

But I never really have a feeling that I've gotta put those tracks on specifically (unlike, say, "Lady Cab Driver", "Computer Blue" or "Anotherloverholenyohead"). I understand why they were regularly played live sets throughout the years in any case. They served a function.

"I Would Die 4 u".

.

I want to say "International Lover" as well.

For me, it's "Little Red Corvette". Not that it's a bad song, but... I'm just tired of it. I was actually tired of it when it came out, very quickly. It's not nearly as catchy (to me) as "1999" or "Automatic" or "Delirious".

.

A close second would be "Kiss". It never really grabbed me.

.

Then third would be "Thieves In The Temple", because... it's just not a good song. It comes across as a last-minute quicky attempt at a single.

--Truer words have never been spoken. I notice that the songs that are disliked are wildly disliked are the ones that are popular. As if Prince's goal should have been to never sell records.

The thread is titled "classic Prince songs you don't really dig".

The thread is about the popular songs (or the fan favourites) that the orgers responding to the thread can't personally connect with.

I'm not trolling but I do skip those songs a lot. I think because I like his looooooong jam session songs like I would die 4 u, baby i'm a star, computer blue, his live instrumental of Something in the water does not compute (Live in Miami 1985), Lady Cab driver. For shorter songs New Position (which waaaaaaay tooooooo short), Around the world in a day, The most beautiful girl in the world (the gold experience album version. I'm sorry but that version he did on soul train back 95 wasn't good), Shhh, scandalous, crazy you, Pink Cashmere (That's my song right thurr ), Nothing Compares 2 U (His live versions without Screaming J. Blige, Off Beat O'Connor, and NoDonna aka Madonna version.....I love Madonna though my first ever woman crush in 1989). But I'm no troll I'm actually a cool fan and I was just answering the question. So please go easy on me.

Cream

It took me a really long time to warm up to Raspberry Beret. Like, until this year . Now I'm a fan of the

There is one line in the most classic of songs, Purple Rain, that's made me cringe every time I've heard it for the past 30+ years. "I think you better close [your mind]." Ugh. I love the song but can't stand that line. With all the lyrics tweaking he did in live performances, I always hoped he'd do something with that line. Closed minds, is that what we need, really?

[Completely O/T I know, but there's only one song of his I absolutely cannot listen to, and it's just about the farthest you could get from a classic (it's the unreleased track Mama ).]
