Amazing. Resolution is among my favorite Prince tracks. It is very uplifting. Amzing how we all have vastly different views on some of his work. I think that is further evidence of his genius. | |

I’d go for cheesy songs such as The Arms of Orion and Life of the Party’s lyrics are simply embarrassing | |

Circle of Amour - Beautiful arrangement, start as female friendship story then Turns into teen boy monkey spanking porn. Really Prince?!?! [Edited 2/4/19 22:13pm] No More Haters on the Internet. | |

I Rock, Therefore I Am. It was doomed as soon as he picked that abysmal title. And the song totally lived up to how bad the title was. |

I'd also add Resolution. My 5 year old could have wrote it My 5 year old knows that "could have WRITTEN" (or "could've written") is proper (but gives you credit for not writing "could of wrote"). That being said, as much as I like Resolution, I'd really like to hear other songs your 5 year old has wrote. (Oops) | |

Some of these choices I see come up over and over again but many of them seem to come down to people's dislike of the lyrics, which I can understand but doesn't make for shitty song. Jughead, Poom Poom, Life o the Party, Another Like Me, I Rock Therefore I am, Push, Orion... | |

Just off the top of my head:
Shut It Down - Bass solo jams at the end, but the lyrics and delivery make me cringe. - Chocolate Box - Loved Discojellyfish, then he made it into a full ass song and decided to "rock the socks" off any girl that comes his way. - I Wanna Melt With You - I do love this song, but the "river of blood" lyric is not okay...

No. Obviously. The question was singular. | |

You say that like Prince was an equivalent to Barry Manilow or something? These ARE the sorts of subjects Prince wrote about! | |

That song was the jam when I was at university. I played this song once at a college bar in the Bronx two years ago to troll a group of dudes who were hogging the jukebox. One of the guys was getting so irritated and kept asking why the song was so long 😂😂😂 | |

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE that song! My favorite line "The girls of soul like the way my booty goes.THey say these curves deserve another glance come on pretty baby give me a chance". "That mountain top situation is not really what it's all cracked up 2 B when  was doing the Purple Rain tour had a lot of people who knew 'll never c again @ the concerts.just screamin n places they thought they was suppose 2 scream." | |

Pussy Control is misunderstood! His funny take on female empowerment with some great lines: 'Pussy got bank in her pocket, before she got dick in her drawers!' . 'Don't think about calling her a ho, you juvenile delinquent!' | |

Geez...sure are some great tunes being hated on by Prince fans up in here!
(Except "Purple & Gold". Fuck that song.)
