i agree with wefunk. i said joy in repetition earlier and it was very hard 4 me 2 just pick 1 song. prince's repetiore of songs is so large, varied and filled with all sorts of different 'emotional vibes' that the way u feel at a particular moment affects what your fav songs r at that moment.

I think "Little Red Corvette" is his one best song. It captures Prince's rock roots, some of his better lyrics, his eroticism and great when played loud!

Ofcourse its impossible to choose. Depends a lot on time and mood. But this one is definitely on my top list:
Princes version of "just my imagination" at the Horse of Troje in the Hague, aftershow. With a guitar solo never heard of...never heard of...it gives me shivers everytime I hear...

Not in any particular order because I love them all equally

Pink Cashmire
Adore
Kiss
Loose
The Beautiful Ones
the entire Emanciaption 2 disc, especially Soul Sanctuary and One Kiss At A Time (those songs give me goose bumps every time)
Mellow
The Greatest Romance Ever Sold

There are a lot of songs I haven't heard yet from past albums and many more to come so I'm sure over the years my list will grow.

it's hard to pick one fave, but mountains is one of mine.

Adore! together with nc2u the most beautiful lyrics he EVER wrote!

"Something In The Water" - 1999. Love that song...and, to me, the lyric line, "Bitch! You think you're special?? So do I.", is quite an emotional "bag". I read love & fear, tenderness & violence, control & confusion, eroticism, and addiction all in that itty bitty mouthful - Prince's voice even cracks when he asks the question...great performance...

p.s. I know I'll have a dif favorite Prince song by tomorrow...by tonight even...lol

"Ballad of Dorothy Parker" with "Pop Life" in close second.

I'm a young Prince fan, I haven't heard all of his albums yet (so I can't list all my fav's, and I like too many to single one out. But the ones I've listened to over and over are:

Purple Rain, Anna stesia, The Beautiful ones, Diamonds and Pearls, and If I was your girlfriend.

raspberry beret or little red corvette

If I had to chose one song? hmmmmm....


Power Fantastic

Thieves in the temple 12"...."I said I wanna know, one thing!!!!!"

Goodness, decisions, decisions! Well, if I had to choose just one, I have to go with "Purple Rain." It's his signature song.

Power Fantastic (if I only understood all the words).

Hard question. I loved reading everyone's replies, though! Top 4 are: The Beautiful Ones, DMSR, Housequake, Starfish and Coffee. (My 4 year old LOVES to sing Starfish and Coffee. So cute!)

Lately I have been bobbin my head to Sexual Suicide.

The One is beautiful as well.

Right now it has to be 'The question of u'.

Just one song ??!! OK I'd say "17 Days" !

Obviously, it depends on my mood, but I'll say
Endorphine Machine.
I love his guitar-driven stuff as much as his funky stuff, and this song just kicks your ass all the way through. The first time I heard it I about fell off my chair.

I have a certain quartet of songs that I think are very anthemic and great album finishers:-

Purple Rain
Adore
Gold
Last December

Can't believe these aren't being mentioned more!

Let's also throw in Everyday Is A Winding Road. His version is an undisputed classic.

I joke.

Adore & Ballad of Dorothy Parker. I still find something new in Adore everytime I hear it. And I have listened to it almost everyday since the album first cae out. It still brings tears to my eyes.

Life Can Be So Nice with Saviour close behind

17 Days without a doubt. Could've swore I seen tears coming from my speakers the first time I ever played it.

My favorite Prince song of all time is I Could Never Take The Place Of Your Man.

Purple Rain. It still sounds fresh after all these years. Honorable mention goes to Question of U.

the love we make also.
