I'm thinking sparse here(as sparse and Prince fits) I'm open to being shown why a song on the list isn't

Sparse 1977-1989 list

Leaving 4 New York
Crazy You
When We're Dancing Close and Slow

How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore

Something In the Water Does Not Compute

Nothing Compares 2 U(the Family album version)

Susannah's Pajamas

Under the Cherry Moon

I Wonder U

Sign o the Time

It

Forever In My Life

When 2 R in Love

Dance With the Devil

All that Madhouse stuff had ZERO guitar in it.

Sparse?
