what do you think is princes funniest song?


my pick would have to be Movie Star.


you?

"The Walk" by The Time..... if that counts as a Prince song....

Do you mean INTENTIONALLY funny because some of them end up that way whether he meant for them too or not. (for example, I cannot listen to any song on "The Truth" without breaking into hysterics, even though I think it's supposed to be serious. "Animal Kingdom" indeed!


The Black Album has got two of his funniest, "Dead On It" and "Bob George". 'Dead On It" is a pretty weak swipe at rap but has got some great lines ("four rings on my fingers, each one as big as a mouse") "Bob George" if only for the "Who..Prince...that skinny m_____f_____ with the high voice" line.

cloreen bacon skin, movie star

"Poom Poom" and a funny segment:- "Cindy c" (- the middle part when Prince sounds muffled asking Cindy "Don't u want to play with me?")

On the live tip "Black MF in the house" (on Diamonds and Pearls tour)

Definitely, PrettyMan.

Vibrator

and the beginning/end to Peace

Cloreen Baconskin

This is a great thread!

Just off the top of my head, I'd have to add a few that may not necessarily be the funniest, but they crack me up...

"Cloreen Bacon Skin" -- obviously this was intended to be silly nonsense...the Crystal Ball liner notes even say so

"Housequake" -- not a funny song, but I love the "Shut up. Already. Damn." line. Cracks me up.

"Prettyman" -- Just for the opener...sucking on a lollipop..."Don't hate me cuz I'm beautiful."

"Bob George" -- I agree with with GottaLetitgo...it's funny.

I'm sure I'll think of some others...

Keith/Kacey

Not sure that this is the "funniest," but it hasn't been mentioned yet: "Do Yourself a Favor" The dialogue parts feature great lines such as:

"That's a 50-dollar bill. When's the last time you seen one of 'em? That's what I thought."

"Somebody call up the Colonel, I hear some chickens scratchin' "

"Don't you play crazy with me ... I'm the one that's crazy"

hmm, i got a tie between 'cloreen baconskin' and 'billy's sunglasses.'

"billy, where'd you get them glasses...thems are the ugliest glasses that i've ever seen..."

has to be either Movie Star or Cloreen Bacon Skin

I want to hear that song, sounds very funny!

Cloreen baconskin is just too annoying to listen to after a few minutes!

Vibrator:- "Look at the size of that thing!"

well, there ain't much more to that song. it lasts approx. 45 minutes!, it's just p. and his wailing guitar, and he just sings the line over and over again. i think there is another line, but i haven't heard the song for awhile.

HiinEnkelte -- help me out on this one...

i always thought that the end of "temptation" on around the world in a day was quite funny when i guess prince is crying,....noooo, nooooo!!!! That shyt cracks me up all the time.

I just remembered another one, "Chocolate" - funny, funky and should not be slept on

the original version of "Data Bank" (" I didn't call that!"),

Tricky,

Cloreen Baconskin,

and Movie Star

Oh, and the 12 inch of I Wish U Heaven ( " Your sista's ugly...That's the truth...She eat Pizza in the backyard....an' sleep on the roof...")

hey ninarockets, i think you pretty much covered it!
i think he one time calls the glasses 'funky' instead of ugly,
and you then you start to see that P want a pair for himself.
it's the longest song in the world, ever. and see? that's where the humor builds!

PrettyMan! That opening just cracks me up every time. Too funny.
