{I feel 1990 needs some explaining - I chose only songs with Prince as the primary artist [so not The Latest Fashion, which is credited to The Time and Prince], and no "Pt. II"s [like Thieves In The Temple or NPG], or remixes. Brother With A Purpose and T.C.'s Rap, while on Prince's maxi-single, aren't here as Prince tracks, unless anyone really objects}

Thank God. This 'Jams of the Year' thing, it all makes sense now. Imagine having voted off Prince's all time best song! omfg

So:
1987:Strange Relationship
1988:Lovesexy
1989:Batdance
1990:Tick, Tick, Bang

Incidentally, I have no idea why 'Jams Of The Year' sounded right to me - it doesn't make sense gramatically. It just sounds better than 'Jams Of The Years'. I'm not sure why I didn't just use the proper song title, Jam Of The Year - on second thought, maybe that sounds better...

Well, although technically I don't think it belongs in this year, "Joy In Repetition" is one of the greatest P songs ever.
