I don't think a second disc would include anything by the NEW Prince . . .

Meaning, only songs would be on it . . . IMO

Hey. They would just slap O+> / Prince.

Well, lets see. I would do... hey wait a minute... Warner Brothers would be so limited on the selection, they would have to release more music from the Vault.

I would rather have an anthology, something that doesn't contain all the greatest hits but just chooses the best songs: 4 disc set of course:

I dont mean to sound harsh or anything, but he only had one hit from 1994-2004, so it would have to be a single and The Most Beautiful Girl In The World has already been released as a single, so what would be the point?

I hate u hit #12 so that was a hit

Mazerati said:

Personally I love Eye Hate U, especially the Extended Remix. But was it really a hit? I mean, did it hit #12 for one week just to disappear right off the chart or did it actually stay in the charts for several weeks?

nice collection.

I did something similar recently, with some of my own edits as well, but stretched it out to 6 discs as I included some key b-sides and prominent album tracks. I need to revise Disc 6 now, though, with the new stuff. I guess 1999 New Master and Avalanche will get the boot.

If a song hits charts for just one week it's still a hit. Not too many of those 80s single releases managed to get to the top10 either, but they were still included on the hit compilations.
