Prince #43 in "Coolest song moments" list According to RetroCrush, the end of Let's Go Crazy is the 43rd coolest part of any song!
http://www.retrocrush.com...index.html Prince's most well known album is certainly full of great hits, but "Let's Go Crazy" is clearly the leader for having the coolest parts. There's actually 2 amazing ones to choose from. As retroCRUSH reader Brian Leet writes, "From the solemn opening organ chords to the first riff, Prince builds it up to a frenzy. Prince's Sunday morning faux sermon is a perfect touch." Equally impressive is that crack addict from hell twitchy guitar solo at the end that uses Voodoo Power to summon Jimi Hendrix from the grave. Even the most jaded redneck who wouldn't get within a mile next to anything colored purple, would drop his can of SKOAL and shout, "Damn...that boy can play guitar!" There's a little clip too, which I won't bore you with. Other highlights - Proud Mary at 23, Bohemian Rhapsody at 4, Immigrant Song at 6, The Devil Went Down to Georgia at 11 and - I'm not sure if they're being ironic/postmodern or what - at number one it's the coolest man around, Phil Collins with what I call the "Eastenders" bit from In The Air Tonight.
