"The Greatest Romance Ever Sold" is so underrated in my opinion. It's just beautiful, and it would fit nicely on your slow jam compilation. smile

Has Prince had many hits with his slow jams? Hmmm...

Well, anyway, I'd say "Purple Rain" would definitely have to be on it, but I'd rework the lyrics into something different: "...gotta shake this feeling, baby..." Mmmm.

Oh my lawd, I ADORE Open Book!!!

"You said you'd take me to a...nother world - I said you were only dreaming..."

This is one of those tracks where my mind is totally boggled that it STILL hasn't been released. Hey Princey!! Lots of your old outtakes don't have dirty lyrics, so you can release 'em, right?

I've said it a million times, but thank god for the bootleggers.

Nice avvie, 'Nana!! smile Kisses.

God (with vocals)
How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore?
When 2 R In Love
Joy In Repetition
Betcha By Golly Wow
Question Of U
Condition Of The Heart
A Case Of You
Venus De Milo
God Created Woman
Scandalous
Purple Rain

oops 16 couldn't cut any more from my original list
