Anxiety

you know, i've been making comps with a weird formula...a coupla songs i can't get enough of, a coupla songs i've never really given a chance, a coupla really really short songs, and one really really long song. and if there's room, maybe one song i always hated, just to give it another chance.

what i've learned from this is that NEWS is very enjoyable in small, one-track doses.

same for ONA.

and The War is very enjoyable sandwiched between two really deep atmospheric tracks.

IMHO, that's a decent list, but I'd also consider these:

Saviour
It's Gonna Be Lonely
The One
Slow Love
Soul Sanctuary
Eternity
Good night, sweet Prince | 7 June 1958 - 21 April 2016

OK- let's break this down: let's get closer to "the ballad"...
Prince has NEVER done a ballad- NOT EVER- but let's get to, er, "BALLADICISING" P.- And Dorothy P. m A.!
