The Feature Formerly Known As Friday Canon: Prince

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

By a kind of popular demand, here is the hugest Friday Canon yet, dedicated to the Purple One (now on a comeback tip I hear), Prince. Of course because the Friday Canon deals with UK top 40 hits, some of his best songs can't make it here (I'm particularly sad not to see "Dirty Mind") but there's plenty here to be going on with. Inventor of textspeak, and by some reckonings the most talented man of the 80s - by the one-third rule you get THIRTEEN picks across his career: use them wisely.

Dude! Go and buy 1 x Dirty Mind right now! For serious, it's thirty five minutes of PURE GENIUS!

What are the singles off it?

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

"Dirty Mind" and "When U Were Mine"

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

I don't think I know either of those! I'm going to have to dig out the Best Of, I haven't listened to half of it because I always seem to just get stuck looping my favourites.

I dunno which were singles (apart from the title track), but the tracklisting is as follows:

Dirty Mind
When You Were Mine
Do It All Night
Gotta Broken Heart Again
Uptown
Head
Sister
Party Up

Yeah!

You need Parade and Around The World In A Day too, you might not like ATWIAD so much but it's got "Pop Life" on it!
