Was that big in the US? In Europe it would be 'I feel love'.

#3 on the Hot 100 in 1978, a Grammy and Oscar winner... and the song she often closes her shows with unless she's doing encores.

Thanks for the info.

I've just listened to it.. and well.. it's just not my thing.

Understandably, at the height of punk, it only managed to reach no. 51 in the UK, but it did mystifyingly well in other markets.

Guns N' Roses - Welcome to the Jungle

Cherrelle - Saturday Love

Al B Sure - Nite & Day

Boyz II Men - I'll Make Love to You

Amy Grant - Baby Baby

Hootie & the Blowfish - I Only Wanna be With You

Isaac Hayes - Theme from Shaft

Disco was huge in other European countries, which could explain why lol then again, some disco songs were huge in the UK around the time "Last Dance" came out so idk lol

TLC's "Waterfalls" is the song they always link to 'em.

I took a TLC greatest hits CD into work this summer, and everyone was scanning until they saw "Waterfalls". They really did not know another TLC song. I was like, "Really? No Scrubs even?"

The only song by TLC I hear on the radio anymore is "Waterfalls".

The only TLC song that appears on the best of the nineties compilations is... "Waterfalls".

I have one:

Bobby McFerrin "Don't Worry Be Happy"..

Really?? And not "I Want You Back"??

I don't think "When Doves Cry" is Prince's most famous song. It might have been his biggest hit in the US, but other songs have become more popular over the years.

Well, it wasn't none of that mess he maded in the 90's

If it wasn't for "Doves", I think "1999" or "Little Red Corvette" would've fitted.

The mainstream knew those 2 as well.

But "Doves" got him over to pop superstardom status

Well what you think is a song Prince is best known for if not WDC? You got choices:

1999

Little Red Corvette

Purple Rain

Let's Go Crazy

Raspberry Beret

lol

I'd say "Kiss" for Prince especially in Europe

Dolly Parton "Nine to Five"

Oasis "Wonderwall"

Kelis "Milkshake"

Karyn White "Superwoman"

Brandy "I wanna be down"

The Killers "Mr Brightside"

Marvin Gaye "Sexual Healing"

James Brown "I feel good"

Amy Whinehouse "Rehab"

The list goes on...

Prince has many popular songs, but we're naming the song that the artist is most known for - Doves was it for Prince because it brought him mainstream success and raised him to pop superstar status. In fact, many of the artists we list have other popular songs, but there's always that one song that took them to commercial success.
