1. Computer Blue

That's it....
There's NO NEED for ANY other songs on ANY other album as far as I'm concerned.

Once Computer Blue hits there's no need to listen any further, or go back to any other. Just hit the repeat button and you're good. Too bad he edited it down so drastically.

Hardly ever listen to PR, but honestly love every song on it and think they're all great. I consider the first 4 to be equally good, the next 2 to be equally good, and the last 3 to be equally good, so my ranking is something like this:

1.
The Beautiful Ones
When Doves Cry
Darling Nikki
Purple Rain

2.
I would die 4 U
Computer Blue

3.
Let's Go Crazy
Take Me With U
Baby I'm a Star

1. Let's Go Crazy
2. Purple Rain
3. When Doves Cry
4. Baby I'm a Star
5. Computer Blue
6. I Would Die 4 U
7. Take Me With U
8. The Beautiful Ones
9. Darling Nikki

I have to say, though, that "When Doves Cry" was my favorite for about 15 of these last 20 years, and "Let's Go Crazy" just kept getting better and better to me (I think it's the guitar work). This is also why I had to put "Doves" just above "Baby I'm a Star," which I hate putting that low because it's one of the best of the bunch live...a real crowd-pleaser and a song to pump me up. As far as danceable tunes and the album, "Star" is my favorite.

This was really tough! 1-4 are all #1s to me. And I dig ALL of the rest.

That was tough! If Purple Rain and LGC are not at the top of your list it is just because you have heard them so much. One of the best Ballads and pure Rock and Roll songs ever written.
1 over Jordan...the greatest since
