Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad?
Purple Rain
I Wanna Be Your Lover

Could make a strong case for Controversy but feel happy with the three I chose

- When Doves Cry (In fact this is my all time favorite song, no matter what decade, genre or artist)
- She's Always in My Hair
- I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man

and so many more.

Yup, that's a very good one and also one of my many favorites by Prince. It was the B-side of When Doves Cry.

i adore prince.

1. i can't make you love me
2. she's always in my hair (12" version)
3. controversy

it's funny, because as much as i love him and his music, when doves cry is a song that i never really liked. and it was one of his most popular.

other songs i really like are:

purple rain (of course.. one of the best rock songs ever made)
pop life
head
i would die 4 u
seven
kiss
my name is prince

Okay, this is weird!! I literally just listened to this song for the first time yesterday in the car. It's on Disc 3 of his Greatest Hits and I just let it go and was like..."WOW, here's a good tune I missed somehow along the way."

Isis, I would never think you'd know such an obscure Prince song...I'm totally impressed!!! See, there's a reason why we're friends!!! [Big Grin]
