Now I've got some reserves about the songs you mentioned. That was a pretty rough time in Prince's life. Great songs, but sad that he had to write them. It's kind of like a double edge sword, many of the greatest artists have to go through a hell of heartache to give us some of that gold. I love Prince as an artist, but even more as a Man. He was a great guy, often misunderstood and mistaken. Flaws and all, no one deserves to go through hell like that. Maybe we can talk more about that
But anyways, to brighten things up and to answer your second question. My fav song from that album has got to be 'Pretty Man' because it gives me serious Musicology vibes. Pretty Man has got some serious funk vibes interlaced in it and I like him going back to his roots like that. Damn that man was funky. Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic also has that lick from The Max on the Love Symbol album and I always liked him sampling himself. Legit one day I wish I could have a catalog so big where I could continuosly sample myself.
