For the chart junkies like me, Prince's charted hits from the US and UK I searched the forum to make sure this hasn't been done before. These are Prince's charted singles on the Billboard Hot 100, R&B, AC, album rock and Modern rock charts. All info is from Joel Whitburn's excellent chart books. The UK info is from the Guiness book of British hit singles. Keep in mind the pop book(both US and UK) and R&B book I have only goes to 1999. The AC book only goes to 1996 and the album rock/Modern rock book only goes to 1995. The year given after a song title is the year the single reached it's peak.
