and he only released it on the back of that Irish nutter having a hit with it.
Can't think of ten to put up, but surely 'Sign 'o the Times' HAS to be Number one, if not for the lyrics?
I was a big Prince fan when I was a kid. Horny little bastard. Him, not me. Well, me too. Anyway.

Indeed!
Do Me Baby is one of his best songs. I forgot about that one.
I loved all the symbol and AFKAP stuff. I thought it was great how he actually went through with the fight with his label when he could have just shut up and taken the money and compromised himself.
His recent enterprise in giving his album away (with the Mail, FFS) was a great move too. You could tell it was a great move by the strength of the objections from all the record industry execs.

The Purple Top Ten-per me.
- Little Red Corvette (blew my ten year old mind-when I realized what is it was about REALLY blew my mind)
- When Doves Cry (an r&b song with no bass line? wtf?)
- Sign O' The Times
- 17 Days
- Adore (ok he is doing Vandross)
- If I Was your Girlfriend
- Purple Rain
- Erotic City
- Cream (that bass line)
- Cinnamon Girl
That's a damn solid list. I might only add Pop Life.

Thank You...that almost made the cut. Prince has such a rich catalog, like a Dylan or Stevie Wonder, that a Top Ten may never do Prince Justice.
I mean I left out....
I Could Never take The Place of Your man Pop Life Diamonds & Pearls Kiss Strange Relationship Let's Pretend We're Married The Beautiful Ones Starfish & Coffee Money Doesn't Matter Tonight Raspberry Beret
Prince is possibly one of the few people artists besides Stevie Wonder who is a genius to me.

General Patton would say just that about the German infantry by all accounts,havin huge respect for their discipline and guts,as he slaughtered them in that brilliant film with George C Scott ... Whether 'the gadgie formally known as Prince'would get away with those heels in that bastard's army is anyone's guess...
The smart money would be on Patton giving it the big un.. 'Like fuck coward!Put this nancyboy on the front line'
Prince cries like a demented girl,begging for one more perm
