Prince!!!!!!
 
You better act like you know who I'm talking about. :p

He has new albums and has been a bit more visible in the past few months.

Some critics like his new music and some critics aren't impressed with his new material. I haven't listened to his new album but after seeing him in concert I am even more of a fan than before. :) I have a "crush" on Prince.

So, all hail, PRINCE!!! Post your favorite songs from his first album (1970s??) to the new stuff.

When Doves Cry is my favorite song by Prince! I was recruitment chair back then & it brings back great 80's memories. Saw him with Sheila E some years later in concert.The good ole days!

I can't pick a favorite. Love me some Prince. I'm pretty sure that I can sing along accurately with the entire Purple Rain soundtrack even 30 years later.

It's been a rough few weeks to be an iconic famous person...such that the other day when I heard two relatively obscure Prince songs on the radio in a row, I FLIPPED OUT.

I turned on the car and heard the end of the Beautiful Ones and the start of Darling Nikki, and I shrieked and scrambled for my phone to check the news.

It was just a belated birthday tribute. ***PHEW!!!***

My favorite Prince track? Probably Gett Off, with stiff competition from My Name is Prince and Let's Go Crazy.

Your posts made me smile.

Darling Nikki and Adore are my favorites but I love every song.

Diamond and Pearl, slow dance to that song during my junior high school prom.

Let's Go Crazy my favorite though

Prince might be the best concert I've ever seen. The place was out of its mind by the end of the set. (On the other hand, he was 2.5 hours late going on stage and there was no warm-up. Jerk. I'm glad I went, but I won't go again.)

I listened to the new stuff. It's pretty good. Not my favorite, but pretty good.

Favorite Prince:

Cream, Delirious, Thieves in the Temple

Private Joy....

P control

Pimp & Circumstance....

Violet the Organ Grinder, has my favorite line of any Prince song....Well I can deal with a sucker, If he's in your mouth, But I can't deal with insincere

I could go on and on....

Prince Rogers Nelson is half of my hybrid spirit animal. The other half is Stevland Hardaway (Judkins) Morris. (I hope you know who that is! ;))

I have "Purple Rain" memorized and I still watch it everytime it comes on. I run that album into the ground. I'm not going to bother to list all of my favorites, because frankly, the list is entirely too long. I love the album "Sign o' the Times." Adore has always been a song that resounded with me and I love "If I Was Your Girlfriend" as well. I love "Raspberry Beret" and the rest of the "Around the World in a Day" album. I also love "Diamonds and Pearls." I like "Call My Name" off of the Musicology album as well.

And I do a MEAN rendition of "Kiss."

Just for a fun...Here is a performance where I think he lost his mind: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SFNW5F8K9Y

No one's mentioned Starfish and Coffee yet?! I must be the only Muppets Tonight fan on GC.
