Prince sampling Prince

Since about 1994 Prince quite frequently uses samples of his own songs 2 complement new songs.

I've pinned a few of m down, but I think there might be more songs where he uses basslines or keyboard parts that were originally in other songs. But I'm not that terrific a music-scholar 2 notice I guess, so perhaps you guys could expand some more on this list:


01. Acknowledge me [The Line/All My Dreams]
02. 2Morrow [The Most Beautiful Girl In The World]
03. 18&Over [Come]
04. Orgasm [Ronnie Talk 2 Russia/Vibrator]


And some remixes including parts or samples of other songs:

05. Face Down $ Mix [18&Over]
06. Pussy Control Remix [Get Wild/Get Loose!]
07. Lovesign Mix [DMSR]
08. Letitgo Sherm Stick Edit [Dorothy Parker?????not sure]

Yeah, the 'Sherm Stick' remix does use 'Dorothy Parker'. In fact, I think besides a few sound FX and synths its more or less the entire track. Its a great, original remix though. I had to hunt high and low in the UK, to find the Maxi-single with the vocal version on it. Well worthwhile though.
