We all know Prince made some really tacky stuff. I also know there are some of that tacky songs that you love to play anyway! But: you would be embarrassed if your (non-Prince) friends ever caught you listening to it...

Speaking for myself, I wouldn't want to be found dead whilst "Hot Wit U" is playing on my stereo. But nevertheless I have a weak spot in my heart for it and I LOVE that little piece of crap!

I know ALL OF YOU have that secret track that you KNOW is tacky and embarrassing, but still, you love to play it! Today it's time to come out of the closet and confess your deepest Princely sin...

None!

I mean it. There are many, many Prince songs that I absolutely adore, and if you don't like it then fuck you and get away from my stereo. Everybody I know thinks I'm weird anyway.

sheeeit, i'd bump "wedding feast" 2 get folks out of my house...

Hot Wit U..
is a BLAST...I love it. I don't care WHO sees me listening to it..I have In2 and Un2...love 'em,both versions. It makes me LAUGH..affectionately..the rhythm...the fun, playfulness of it...hot wichoo...HAH! the suck yer tongue..and say oooh...what a fun guy! this is what women adore about Prince music.

funkaholic1972 - lots!

Here is my list as it stands from the tip of my typhoon to the bottom of my ankle chain -

1. The Max (Prince rapping - please)
2. Face Down (Same reason as above)
. .


Hmm. I thought there were more than that.

My kids love it. Maybe that says a lot. I like it, myself. It's cute. I don't know why it gets folks so
upset. It's just a tiny, funny little tune.

The whole Camille-stuff, because only fans can listen to it without laughing their heads off (the speeded voice, non-fans will never understand this).

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

That was the first one that popped into my head too.

oh yes.
for one, it's Solo. i love that song. but ppl look at me like i'm some big ol nerd when i play it

THE WHOLE EMANCIPATION ALBUM







but I dont love nor do I like that album...I would just play it to get people out my crib!

All the songs I love, I love other people to hear - so there are none that I love that I am embarrassed if others hear.

There are quite a few songs I dislike, those are the ones I wouldn't let potential converts hear!

Anything with bad sound quality would make this category 4 me personally. I've learned 2 get beyond it over the years, but 2 play a bad quality track in front of someone would very likely make them wonder what the hell I'm listening 2...

MOSt of the RAVE album.

and CALL THE Law. tony m's awful rapping can't destroy a
great GROOve...prince's guitar work and rosie's vocals.

i dug the video.

Personally the whole Batman album

the only prince tune i get embarressed with is the song"if i was your girlfriend" as if gives mindless idiots the impression that prince is gay and they in turn take the mick out of me for being a prince fan.They dont understand the meaning of the song at all.

Anything sung by Camille is sexy! Too sexy! Sexy one in the place! Eruption! In ya face! Sexy! Too sexy! Lovesexy! Right down to her feet! Sexy! Wit the bacon meat! Pork meat!

Um, got carried away. But it's all true.

Oh really...

thanx for the thread, funkaholic imho though, since Prince, I believe, regards his songs as his children (the creative act, in other words), i think we should strive to never be embarrassed at our children Peace

Solo
The end of Do Me Baby
Grafitti Bridge(track - not album)

The whole TRC album, to get the folks out of my house, like Handclaps said

The songs I love playing is 3 or 4 or more songs that my fave but is too embarrassed 2 play 2 is this:

1. Darling Nikki ( I know tha whole dance 2 this one)
2. The Beautiful ones ( I love this one!!)
3. Do me, baby
4. When doves cry
5. Diamonds & Pearls
6. Pink Cashmere


I hate when people are around me when I want 2 play these songs of Prince!! Especially my parents, they're very
NON-Prince so I had 2 use headphones for these songs.

Oh well, i tried 2 hide my Prince-obsessed identity!!
I still fail n trying 2 listen 2 it when no-one's
around!!

I played TRC to one of my friends and he looked at me like I just completely lost my mind...then he said to turn the shit off and put Zeppelin back on.

Also all of the Camille tracks...especially Crystal Ball & Good Love. I play those tracks all the time (since I absolutely LOVE them) and I don't know how many times I have been asked why I was playing The Chipmunks.

matter of perspective really. I would b ashamed 2 play any new Marriah song.

don't know if we're talking videos here, but the 1991 MTV Awards - Gett Off (buttless pants version) is pretty damn embarassing. Nice 90's Arsenio hair-do's and what's that rapper's name? Forget Tupac, somebody should have shot him.
