a song he wrote for Susanah, recorded it and then destroyed the tape immediately after; forgot the title
anyone knows the title for this one?

and certainly "A Case Of U", he's been playing and re-recording this song since his early days - let's say for the last 25 years or so -


The song you are referring to is "Wally".It was an emotionally honest song that was painful for him to record.He erased the tape soon after it was finished.

What do you think Prince favorite song is? Have we even heard it yet? In concert, what song seems to be his most enjoyable to play?

Could YOU say what your favorite song is? And then, ten years from now, will it still be your favorite?

I mean, sure, you LOVED the Macarena, but you probably don't like it so much now, right?

So, my guess is that his favorite song changes on an hourly basis... just like mine. Right now, I'm digging Problem Child by ACDC. Tomorrow, it'll be Give It To Me Baby by Rick James...

Uhh, what was the question again?

It's got to be "Gett Off." He has supported this song in a number of ways:

First, he created a video for the song.

Next, he performed the song for a world-wide audience at the MTV Music Awards with the fantastic ass-less pants and cast of hundreds onstage.

He also released the "Gett-Off" maxi-single with multiple mixes including my all-time favorite, "Violet, The Organgrinder!"

Fianlly, he loves to perform this song live: see Rave 2000 performance and the recent Hit N' Run tour, including the release of the NPGMC video download from RubySkye last year.

I think his favorite song is The Grand Progression.
I remember an interview back in '95/'96 where he was asked if he could write the perfect song, what would it be? (or something like that). He said he was striving to find The Grand Progression. I wonder if he'll ever release it.

That and the "Ladder" are my favorites. Especially the version from the LA soundcheck in the recent video that NPGMC released. I saw/heard that bit back in '89 from a different documentary called "The Prince of Paisley Park. I wish they would release it in mp3.
I think he is very fond of "A Case Of You" as he's been singing as far back as '82 from what I remember, although he never seems to sing the first few verses.

His favourite song of recent times must be "The Ride". Why else would he insist on playing such an average song at every given opportunity? Good jamming song, but we all know there are better. He seems to like it though. Who am I to argue!

I'm sure with the release of The Rainbow Children, he will be singing a lot of songs from this album and his favorites will come from this album, especially since it speaks about his newfound beliefs. "Just like the sun, the rainbow children, Rise!"
"Just like the sun, the Rainbow Children rise."
