'When Doves Cry' or 'Eye Rock, Therefore Eye Am'?

For me, gotta be When Doves Cry.

Oh please, When Doves Cry absolutely murders this song.

WDC is a classic altogether.

Not a fair fight.
When Doves Cry is a groundbreaking classic. Come on, he left out the bass in this song and it was still hot, so hot most folks didn't notice.
I Rock, Therefore I Am was unique in its own way, combining funkrock with a Jamaican rap flavor. But WDC is my winner.

Hee hee hee. Though I must say, when I heard Eye Rock, I dug it. But not only does When Doves Cry HAVE NO BASS (he's a bad motha-shut cho mouf), but he does a breakdance (yup that's what I said, I'm old) that is still done!

R&B loved this...with no bass. He's a freakin genius.

No bawling necessary...the fact this person doesn't like it but loves P (or is at least expending energy on this board) says it all sweetie. Ever had a fave song that no one else can understand why you like it? Well we have the artist who can do it all! Yayuh!

If it helps, I'm 18 and I think When Doves Cry is absolutely amazing.
