Prince would not approve of this!

"The Cross" is top five Prince for me. Such a wonderful piece of work.

I'm with VG. The Cross is great but Fuck The Cross is probably his all-time best.

I have a hard time listening to it b/c I find it so depressing.

Most beautiful in my book would probably be "Forever in My Life."

Depressing really? I think its one of his most beautiful quiet numbers. It so delicate and calm...

The month after he died was crazy. I think I listened to him every single night. Must've watched a hundred YouTube vids too.

Fuck.

You should look up the stories of him filing take-down notices for it even though it's not his song. Hilarious.

That seems to be a popular one. I've seen Gov't Mule do it twice.
