Who likes 'Peach'?

I really love it! I've got this riff in my head, I just can't stop singing it at the moment.I think it's really underrated amongst Prince fans.

One of his best commercial tunes IMO.Should be on the radio more too.Love the panning in the channels on the guitar solo!

I love "Peach". If only the o(+> album would have had a bit
more of a punch to it with more songs like this, I might
listen to it once in a while.

Though the studioversion is cool, Peach always seems to
become much more momentous when it's played live.

Live it kicks some serious butt.
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

I dont like the album version cause he sings an octave lower than on live performances. IT doesn't work without the screaming singing IMO.

When it first came out, I HATED IT!

Took me 10 - 20 listens to get into it.

I love the production / engineering by Aussie Mark Forrester (RIP), loved the guitar solo that pans from speaker to speaker, left to right, back and forth, I thought that was pretty cool

I loved it from the first time I heard it.

When Prince came to Houston last year, I was hoping he'd invite people to jam with him, and I practiced "Peach" for a couple weeks. I changed the lyrics some, substituting "pigtails" for "titties", and re-wrote the last verse to be an homage to my wife.

Alas, a nice girl filled up almost the whole pre-concert time with Prince telling him about her purple curse, and I never got my chance.

I probably would have sucked, anyway...smile

Peach is perfect. Its a classic rock riff. Sounds like ZZ Top could have done this song. And the lyrics? Shit. Perfectly dirty. And the crunge of it all. This is a spring-summer ride with the top down car song. (Eat a) Peach appreciation. headbang

Love it. The only decent singles he's released since are The Most Beautiful Girl In The World and Eye Hate U.

Totally agree. Why didn't he scream the album version as well? I don't like the album version. The live version is orgasmic.

T'sacrifice of victor' video holds the greatest rendition of this track. The extended jam at the end when p just keeps playing as the band stops. Then smashing that cloud into the stage as if it is'nt even worthy of being played by him.
You do as I say

The Wembley Stadium live version is fackin' hot as well. I was there when he did that sacrifice of victor version. The Come, Endorphinmachine, Peach trio that night was very nice indeed, thankyou.

Damn I wish I still had the tape of that performance.

I seem to be the only one in this thread not liking the song that much.

About the studio version:
Its arrangements and the low voice make it a rather bland show.
He actually sounds like he's having a cold or a throat issue.
I've always felt that he never got to the rocker he wants to be.
Bambi and When you were mine are very, very close, but Peach is
not amongst those ranks in rocksongs. His guitar tones are almost
a humorous statement against southern rock biggrin

Of course the live versions do the song justice, mostly because of
the vocals, but in concert things also become a bit funkier. And he plays
so loud you get rocked automatically.

If we did a top ten least favorite Prince songs, this would be number 2 right under Animal Kingdom.
