Which Prince song lasts 2 damn long?

O.k o.k he's a genius but some times he can go on a bit with the ending of a song-I just went 2 see Lord of the Rings 3 and I must of got up at least 8 times thinking the movie was over only 4 it 2 go on some more, some Prince songs as much as I love them can be like that-the two that come to mind are:

1. That long ass bit at the end of The Everlasting Now

2. The at least 4 endings 2 The Holy River (come on song, finish already! I need 2 go wash the car-damn)

As I take away with one hand I feel I must give with the other...The longer Version of little Red Corvette where prince cries mayday! MAYDAY!!! is so damn cool and International Lover is a long long song but it holds U till the end and makes U want 2 just start it all over again.

I've always thought the bit in Alphabet Street when Cat starts rapping was a bad move-I prefer the version without Cat's Lame rap..I mean "U can shake Ur body like a horny pony would??" please brick

That shit only works if prince says it..

Easy, every single track on N.E.W.S.

One song that lasts damn long that I love is the extended version of America.

Actually like The Ballad of Dorothy Parker and Adore and Bohemiam Rhapsody and 3 chains of Gold-Come is what is known as a perfect song-beginning, middle, end and so much depth and change.
I must disagree.

yeah I'm like okay , so when is the song gonna end confused but that's what I noticed about old songs back in the days, they only had about eight tracks on the whole album, but each song was about eight minutes long

"Sex (the 80's r over...)" goes on for way too long. Actually, I wish that the song never started in the 1st place.

A song that's that repetitive shouldn't last over 3/4 minutes. nod

Amen. Why the full 15 minutes of that are included when he edited down Crystal Ball and Crucial is beyond comprehension.

I think the long version of Theives in the Temple is pretty lame, although I don't wanna talk too much shit about it since it made for a hilarious video.

Some of Prince's long repeditive stuff is really very good.. thinking here of America 12", Pop Life (UK) extended and Sexy Dancer extended. I think they work better on singles than on albums.
