one that hasn't been mentioned "Friend, Lover, Sister, Mother, Wife". Even more emotional now since the divorce.

I'd also have to say Jughead and the NPGMC commercial... j/k wink

YES!! Sometimes... and "Beautiful Ones..." definitely but Condition of the Heart is it for me. He sounds like he's been crying (either that or he had some kind of cold but I might put my money on the former) and it kinda feeels like the things he's singing about have really happened. Most artists don't write lyrics that good about things that haven't actually happened to them.

I'd have to say "Pink Cashmere," although it's partly because the song has special significance to me.
Please note: effective March 21, 2010, I've stepped down from my prince.org Moderator position.

I'd say "If I was U're Girlfriend". I'm suprised no-one's mentioned it.

I think that's his most naked, most emotionally vulnerable song. It's about trying to connect with someone you love and not knowing HOW.

Musically you've got this steady, slow, solitary funk groove going on, but the kicker is the sad minor-chord synth-string parts way down in the mix. And then when he goes Pleee-ee-eeeh-eeese!, I just feel it all over. Been there...

Touches my heart to know Prince is a lonely and pathetic nerd just like all of us.

Seriously? At the moment Sex in the Summer. The ultrasound heartbeat, this just makes me cry (I'm a mum). When I was younger I did think "Something in the Water" was sad, but was far too young to understand.

nod and "I can't love you anymore"
In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular.

Baby - for the closing line, I hope our baby has eyes just like yours.

Do Me Baby - ever tried it to this - the timing is spot on!

Condition Of The Heart - the piano crescendo.

God - when he sings "to rule the night"

How Come You Don't Call Me - "down on my knees, begging you please"

Question Of U - "Should I become naked, no image at all"

Purple Rain (live) - guaranteed to open the floodgates.
In the distance a light shines and I know it is mine. Someday I will touch it because it calls me. It says cross the line, cross the line. I know everything is not always what it seems, so I pinch myself daily just in case it's a dream

"Goodbye". This song still brings back painful memories whenever I hear it.
Walking alone in the dark, I see nothing u see
I can be in a park, or flying in the…in the deep sea
I wish u’d hold my hand; then everything could b
There’s nothing strange, we’re not deranged
We only want everyday 2 b a Cosmic Day
