If Prince has recorded a version of it then it counts.

Can’t even narrow it down to a top 20. Fucking hell. A real thinker this one.

This is a tough one - any other artist would deserve the full 10 behind a song as perfect as Little Red Corvette…
Just checked and yep, it’s still If I Was Your Girlfriend
The single best use of slap bass in popular music too.

Only one Prince song gets referenced by Mutya Buena… pretty obvious what needs to win

Put on the Prince 4eva compilation to try and help and it hasn’t at all. Any of these songs could be his best without even diving in to the album cuts. Fucks sake.
‘Batdance’?
Oh man, what’s the closing date on this? I probably can’t vote until Monday

oh i see that was already asked… soz
well technically prince recorded/programmed/produced the whole song but it was sung by the time and its on their record. so i guess not. i would be the only vote for it anyway im sure, plus maybe a @BodyInTheThames sympathy vote.

You’ve lost me there I’m afraid, whatever it is you’re asking for is DENIED.

@Funkhouser if people vote for ‘Nothing Compares 2 U’ will you assume they mean the (superior) Greatest Hits version with Rosie Gaines, or the posthumously released studio version (we may as well ignore)?

The Rosie Gaines one because it’s amazing!
“What he tell you?” “I’m listening” etc.
