Morris Day - Cooler Than Santa Claus. I've literally just discovered this song yesterday and instantly added it to my Christmas playlist. It hasn't fully grown on me just yet but it's getting there. | |

Come to Belgium, put your feet under the table here. Wouldn't mind having a Prince fan to support me at Xmas dinner. Thing is, here on the .org you're never 'solo', it's also something. Or get positively sad, and play that growing Princemas-playlist... "The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves.

Could include ‘Christmas Vacation’ by Mavis Staples that, although does not have Prince involvement, it was released as a Paisley Park promo single, to promote the film of the same name - it was the theme tune. It was also a b-side on the 12” of ‘Time Waits For No One’, so linked to Prince. There may or may not be something coming! |

True, but a bit too funky for my Princemas list Some version of ''Come'' has sleigh bells too by the way A few other ones : - Girl - Count The Days - Way Back Home - The One - I Wish U Heaven (parts 1, 2 & 3) - Reflection - 3x2=6 - Somewhere here on earth - Mustang Instrumental (TMBGITW) - Bedtime Story - With You (Jill Jones) "The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves.

I had a Prince-mas CD that I burned back in the day...Off the top of my head:
Another Lonely Christmas I Wish U Heaven Belle of St Mark (yeah, those sleigh bells) Closing of the Year W&L Reaching One W&L (again, sleigh bells) River Joni Mitchell 4 Tears in Your Eyes Merry Christmas to the World Sounds of Blackness The Weight - Staples Singers Winter Wonderland - Eurythimics...I know nothing to do with Prince...I just really liked it and it has a drum machine, lol
There were others...and alot of these are stretches I know...but everyone seemed to like it. I remember specifically the one people really dug was Closing of the Year by Wendy & Lisa. |

Thank you for these, very good idea. Even Eurythmics... I've put Wham! and Paul McCartney on it too. - I even made an edit verison of ''The War'' and put it on the list. Sleighbells again...

Power Fantastic has always seemed like a great winter/holiday song to me. It just feels so evocative, like sitting in front of a fireplace on a cold snowy night |

I agree. And since we have this powerful intro where we hear Prince explaining studio work to the band... makes it even more special to me... just to hear his voice.

"Winter Wonderland" by Good Question - there's a Prince sample at the very end. And if you're going to mention Sounds of Blackness then any song from Alexander O'Neal's Christmas album, My Gift to You could also be included. It's very Minneapolis. | |

All the Midnights in the World and Still Would Stand All Time sound sorta Christmasy to me. | |

It's interesting that Prince didn't hardly record any holiday songs. | |

Just heard "Love...Thy Will Be Done" today. It also fits nicely "Whatever skin we're in
we all need 2 b friends" |
