Venus de Milo or Alexa de Paris

Both are beautiful pieces of music. Which one do you prefer?

Both are perfect songs the way the are. The fact that Venus de Milo leaves you wanting more, means it's NOT too long and should stay that length.

But Alexa de Paris edges Venus out. biggrin

Venus de Milo is a beautiful. I couldn't believe that P could write something so beautiful. When I would play it for people, they wouldn't believe that it was Prince.
Neverthess.....

Alexa is the muthafunkin jam.....headbang Prince at his most brilliant. That song is just SICK in the best way.

Alexa de Paris. Especially the long version.

Venus de Milo is so much shorter so it doesn't stick the same way.

However it ends the first side of Parade perfectly nod

Hmmm, I almost can't decide but I think I'll go with Alexa de Paris...

Also, I heard somewhere that it was mainly Wendy and Sheila E playing on this track. Any truth to that, I wonder?

Both are nice. Venus de Milo is short but its good for thinking, and Alexa de Paris is excellent for dancing, a la Christopher and Mary.
