Computer Blue > all


I strongly feel your post is the greatest thing ever posted in the history of Prince.org. This should be engraved at the base of that statue they just unveiled in MN. It should be on Prince's tombstone (if he had one.) And it should be written in 400 pt font at the entrance to Paisley Park. And Donald Trump should wear a hat with these words emblazoned on it during the next Covid briefing. I especially like the small "a" in all. Nice touch.

You said it, not me.

There are, of course, no less than very-good songs on Purple Rain, so it's not like anything is really at the bottom. But, if I had to rank them...





1A. When Doves Cry

1B. Purple Rain




3. Let's Go Crazy




4A. Take Me With U

4B. The Beautiful Ones

4C. I Would Die 4 U




7A. Darling Nikki

7B. Baby I'm A Star

7C. Computer Blue





They all great...

Computer Blue extended might be the greatest 12 mins in recorded music history.
