2day's #UnderratedPrinceGem is #Prince's "Lavaux" from @prince's 35th album "20Ten". Of all of his songs post 80's, this song feels and sounds like it could fit on 1999 or even Sign O' the Times. Prince is at his best when the song is simple, funky and catchy. That's Lavaux.
2day's #UnderratedPrinceGem is #Prince's "Stare". Again, it's simple, funky and another classic Prince earworm. It's the rare late @prince song that sounds like younger Prince. Replace the horn parts with early 80's Prince keyboards and you have a Controversy track.
2day's #UnderratedPrinceGem is #Prince @therevolution's “All My Dreams“. This is one of my favorite @prince songs. It’s the biggest “What If” @therevolution didn’t disband and how the band would have continued to help shape “Dream Factory” and his sound going into the 90’s.
2day's #UnderratedPrinceGem is #Prince @therevolution's “Take Me With U". This song is SO good, it overcomes Apple's awful vocals. I call this song the sister song 2 "Raspberry Beret". It's catchy, airy, & timeless. Starting with the drum fill intro 2 the flowing strings.
2day's #UnderratedPrinceGem is #Prince’s “Noon Rendezvous". It's wonderfully sultry, smooth and sexy. @prince at his best. As much as I love the studio version on "Originals", My favorite version is from his 1984 Birthday Show. Wendy's guitar part takes it to a new level.
2day's #UnderratedPrinceGem is #Prince’s “Last Heart”. Again, I always say @prince is at his best when the song is simple and not overly complicated. “Last Heart” is just that. This song is perfect. It deserved to be a track on a proper album.
2day's #UnderratedPrinceGem is #Prince’s “Goodbye”. I’ll say it now. It might be the BEST song on “Crystal Ball”. The lyrics are among @prince’s best. The vocal melody is singable and an ear worm. The song musically is full and dynamic. It’s just sad this song didn’t live on a…
2day's #UnderratedPrinceGem is #Prince & @therevolution’s “Anotherloverholenyohead". The single only hit #63 on @billboard, but this song is perfection! It's wonderfully dark & sad, has an incredible vocal melody. Prince is at his best when the song is simple. This is it!
Along with my #Prince #UnderratedPrinceGem series, I’m starting a mini-series called: #PrincesAllStarBand This one is going to cause a ruckus 🤣 From day 1, @prince has surrounded himself with AMAZING musicians. I will pick the all-stars from ONLY members of his past bands
2day's #UnderratedPrinceGem is #Prince’s “Do Yourself A Favor”. It’s a reworking of Pepe Willie’s “If You See Me”. Jesse Johnson has a version that is almost identical to @prince’s. The Estate finally released this song as part of the 1999 SDE. music.apple.com/us/playlist/pr…
2day's #UnderratedPrinceGem is #Prince’s “Pink Cashmere”. Yes @prince fans have it in their top 10 Prince ballads, but EVERYONE needs to know this song. It has the unique Prince sound, arrangement, and sultry vocals. It’s a perfect song. music.apple.com/us/playlist/pr…
2day's #UnderratedPrinceGem is #Prince’s “Letitgo”. @prince is at his best when he writes a stripped down funky song. This songs has it all. Memorable vocal melody and catchy simplistic funk pop. The intro of the song is sampled from the unreleased Vanity 6 song “Vibrator”.
@princeHits @prince I was honestly confused as hell, and immediately disappointed when this was released as the (first and only?) single on the Hits/B-Sides box set, but man, within days, I was smitten by it's laid back appeal. Definitely an #UnderratedPrinceGem. Just an everyday, feel-good P track
2day's #UnderratedPrinceGem is #Prince’s 1982 version of “Extraloveable”. This version has yet 2 B released by @prince’s Estate as the song contains a rape reference. The Estate has said they will not alter any vault tracks, which I respect. I still want this song remastered.
2day's #UnderratedPrinceGem is “Moonbeam Levels”. It's a top 5 #Prince song for me. Susan Rodgers once said she thought @prince didn’t release it because it was too personal to him. The way he sings the last line gets 2 me: “He don't really wanna die” music.apple.com/us/playlist/pr…
My First #UnderratedPrinceGem is “Good Love”, originally from the “Bright Lights, Big City” Soundtrack (this version is longer). The song is quintessential mid-80’s @prince. The music is funky & wonderfully poppy that only #Prince could write. It should have been a single.…
