Anxiety

Hmmm, now this is a tough one for me. I tend to think of Princes ballads as being either sexy or sad, with a big dividing line (usually) between the two. So maybe I should come up with two lists?

SEX BALLADS:

1. Adore (well, duh.)
2. Scandalous
3. Joy In Repetition
4. Damn U
5. (this space reserved for the one song I'm not thinking of right now which will make me slap myself in the forehead well after the thought - but in the meantime, I'll list Do Me Baby)

SAD BALLADS:

1. Condition of the Heart
2. Another Lonely Christmas
3. Sometimes It Snows In April
4. Still Would Stand All Time
5. Gotta Broken Heart Again (love that thrashing around at the end - perfect)

I once compiled a CD called "Do Me Baby - The Sexiest Prince Ballads". This was the tracklist:

Do Me, Baby
I Can't Make U Love Me
When 2 R In Love
I Hate U
International Lover
Slow Love
Insatiable
Scandalous
Shhh
One Kiss At A Time
Crucial
Adore
Do Me Baby - Live

Reading it through now, I guess I should have added Damn U. But other than that, these are the sexiest ballads he's ever written. His top ballad, of course, is "Sometimes It Snows In April", but that's a sad one, of course...
"How embarrasing to be human!"

I made a cd of all the ballads. I think a ballad hits cd would sell great for Prince, hell the Whispers, the Commodores and EW&F have one, why not Prince. I like all the usual ones you guys like, something about "Do Me Baby" especially the live version with the guitar intro, that I never get sick of. For those who want the chords, they're almost the same as "I Wanna Be Your Lover" strange but true. Emaj9/D#m7,G#m7/Emaj9 repeat over and over and you've got yourself one of the sexiest songs ever written.

I do like this song but the lyrics are too much like that Blessed Union of Souls song "She likes Me For Me" Remember that song from last year? "Not because I look like Leonardo or because I'm funny like Jim Carrey" That sung blew!
