hmmm.

I think I just don't wanna agree w/ Maxxx though he may be right

CalhounSq said:

pssst, go with I Feel For You

Could be "I Feel For You", though his version pales next to Chaka's. But it's still a good song. Is it "great"?

LOLOL (look above)

What is 'Leaving for New York'??

I think 'I wanna be your lover' and 'I feel for you'
Though 'My love is forever' is fairly good too


calhounsq - did you post on my "chaka khan's vrsion of 'i feel for you' is the greatest recording ever" thread?

I don't think so but unless you were saying it's the greatest COVER (not recording) of a Prince song, it's better that I don't

"Still Waiting" (1979)...

"people say that I'm too young,too young to fall in love
but they don't know,they really don't know that's all that I've been dreaming of..."


CLASSIC!!!

It's a 1976 piano ballad by Prince that has never been officially released.It's a beautiful song.

Thanks for explaining, was a little late. Leaving for NY, great song! And a great year, 1976, that´s the year I saw daylight for the first time.

Soft And Wet if you are THAT old.

And let's be honest.
His first true GREAT song is 1999.
That got him played overseas.

"Still Waiting" is a very special song for me.It was the first Prince song that I was exposed to.I was 10 years old and my mother was raving about a song she had heard at a friend's house.A few days later,I come home from school and she's playing "Still Waiting" by this unknown person named Prince! She showed me the album and said "this is the song!".This was in 1980 and I've been a fan ever since

It's a killer song!! Prince's vocals are so heartfelt and emotional.You can FEEL his pain and longing on that song (and on "It's Gonna Be Lonely" and "With You").The entire 'Prince' album is very underrated,imo.

B A M B I !!!

"All your lovers,they look just like you
But they can only do,the things that you do
Come on baby,and take me by the hand
I wanna show you what it's like to loved by a man"

I'm serious guys,the 'Prince' album is classic!

I would say "You Cant Touch This".

I didn't like his pants much though.

I'm yours.

when u were mine

that song will be covered for years and years to come. I predict in the next year or so, someone will cover that song and have a huge hit with it.
