What's your top ten from the late great?


1) Raspberry Beret
2) When Doves Cry
3) Purple Rain
4) Get Off
5) 1999
6) Let's Go Crazy
7) Cream
8) Kiss
9) The Most Beautiful Girl In The World
10) You Got The Look

1) Little Red Corvette - been my favourite for a few years now
2) Let's Go Crazy - the intro > life
3) Raspberry Beret
4) I Would Die 4 U
5) The Most Beautiful Girl in the World
6) Gett Off
7) I Wanna Be Your Lover
8) When You Were Mine
9) When Doves Cry
10) Delirious

(obviously Purple Rain is legendary but I took that as read early on and went on looking for other songs when I got into him)

[Alf]

I like little Red corvette, nearly chose it myself.

Hard to pick a top ten, but I'd probably go with...

1. I Could Never Take The Place Of Your Man.
2. Purple Rain.
3. The Most Beautiful Girl In The World.
3. The Beautiful Ones.
5. 1999.
6. Raspberry Beret.
7. Little Red Corvette.
8. I Would Die 4 U.
9. Cream.
10. Gold

Edit: I forgot about The Beautiful Ones, that's definitely in my top ten. It's making me think of so many of his songs I adore and could easily put in a top ten. Take Me With U, Baby I'm A Star, Sometimes It Snows In April, Gett Off, Gotta Broken Heart Again, Morning Papers, Kiss, Anotherloverholenyohead, Diamonds And Pearls and the list goes on and on.

I'm with you... I don't even know how to make a top 10 out of his amazingly depth discography...
