This song just tops my list of Prince's works of genius.Its got simple words that are sincere and super sweet that would make any heart melt to the ground.And the melody is just deep and flows with the words and the beats.And the sound is just too unique.These lines to diamonds and pearls stand out to me the most.
"This will be the day
That you will hear me say
That I will never run away
I am here for you
Love is meant for two
Now tell me what you're gonna do
If I gave you diamonds and pearls
Would you be a happy boy or a girl
If I could I would give you the world
But all I can do is just offer you my
love "
If you ask me those are the most beautiful and sincere words.
2.The Most Beautiful Girl In The World
Which girl wouldn't want to hear these beautiful poetic words....
2.The Most Beautiful Girl In The World
Which girl wouldn't want to hear these beautiful poetic words....
"Could you be the most beautiful girl
in the world?
It's plain to see you're the reason that
God made a girl
When the day turns into the last day of all time
I can say I hope you are in these arms of mine
And when the night falls before that day I will cry
I will cry tears of joy cause after you all
one can do is die, oh
Could you be the most beautiful girl in the world?
Could you be?
It's plain to see you're the reason that
God made a girl
Oh, yes you are
3.When Doves cry
Just the title to this song is pure genius and one of a kind.Who would think of such a title but a music genius and icon.The title is super deep and the words to this song are full of emotion.The sound to this song is priceless and the sound of the electric guitar just makes it pure genius.
"How can you just leave me
standing?
Alone in a world that's so cold? (So
cold)
Maybe I'm just too demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father, too
bold
Maybe you're just like my mother
She's never satisfied (She's never
satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry
Touch if you will my stomach
Feel how it trembles inside
You've got the butterflies all tied up
Don't make me chase you
Even doves have pride"
Wow,who would think of such an amazing title to a song "Purple Rain" other than an icon like Prince.
That is a great title to a sad soulful slow song full of emotions.
"Purple rain Purple rain
I only want to see you underneath
the purple rain"
5.Raspberry Beret
Before i even knew the title and the words to this song i was captured by it from the melody, the flow to the sound especially the guitar.When i learnt the words i was blow away by the flow of the story in the song.The title to this song is again one of a kind "Raspberry Beret"
"I was working part time in a five-and-dime
My boss was Mr. McGee
He told me several times that he didn't like my kind
'Cause I was a bit too leisurely
Seems that I was busy doing
something close too nothing
But different than the day before
That's when I saw her, Ooh, I saw her
She walked in through the out door,
out door
She wore a raspberry beret
The kind you find in a second hand store"
The words and the flow to "if i your girlfriend" are simply lovely.And this is an such amazing song coming from a man.Only an icon and genius like Prince would come up with such a song.
"If I was your girlfriend
Would you let me dress you
I mean, help you pick out your clothes
Before we go out
Not that you're helpless
But sometimes, sometimes
Those are the things that bein' in
love's about
If I was your one and only friend
Would you run 2 me if somebody hurt
you
Even if that somebody was me?
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be
Please
If I was your girlfriend
If I was your girlfriend
The beats to "I wanna be your lover" can get anyone to the dance floor.It is a great dancing track and the false to by Prince in this song makes it sound so amazing and gives it so much emotion.The words to these song are sweet as always by Prince.
"I ain't got no money
I ain't like those other guys you
hang around
And it's kinda funny
But they always seem to let you down
And I get discouraged
'cause I never see you anymore
And I need your love, babe yeah
That's all I'm living for, yeah
I didn't wanna pressure you, baby
But all I ever wanted to do
I wanna be your lover
I wanna be the only one that makes
you come running
I wanna be your lover
I wanna turn you on, turn you out,
all night long, make you shout
Oh, lover! Yeah
I wanna be the only one you come for
8.Kiss
Now Kiss is a nice playful sweet romantic song with an amazing sound by Prince.
You don't have to be rich
To be my girl
You don't have to be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more
compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss
9.Starfish and Coffee
Well Starfish and coffee is yet another unique and amazing title to a song by Prince.This song has an amazing melody to it and an incredible story that flows like a river.
It was 7:45 we were all in line
To greet the teacher Miss Cathleen
First was Kevin, then came Lucy,
third in line was me
All of us where ordinary compared to Cynthia Rose
She always stood at the back of the line
A smile beneath her nose
Her favorite number was 20 and every single day
If you asked her what she had for breakfast
This is what she'd say
Starfish and coffee
Maple syrup and jam
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine
And a side order of ham
If you set your mind free, baby
Maybe you'd understand
Starfish and coffee
Maple syrup and jam
Nothing compares is an amazing emotional sad song with great sound by Prince.
It's been seven hours and fifteen
days
Since you took your love away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since you took your love away
Since you been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing I said nothing can take away these blues
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Gold is a deep song by Prince and very poetic.It is not a love song but a song with a message that all that glitters isnt gold.It has a smooth unique flow and sound and its easy to listen to.
There's a mountain & it's mighty high
You cannot see the top unless you fly
And there's a molehill of proven ground
There ain't no where to go if you hang around
Everybody wants to sell what's already been sold
Everybody wants to tell what's already been told
What's the use of money if you ain't gonna break the mold?
Even at the center of fire there is cold
All that glitters ain't gold
All that glitters ain't gold, mmm.....
This song is from the album Prince released in the year 2000.The lyrics to The greatest romance ever sold are amazing and so creative.And the melody to the sound just knocks ones socks off.The violins sound like a piece of heaven.Pure work of a pure musical genius.
The greatest romance that's ever been sold
So what do you know, you and me
Finally face to face
Checking each other up and down
In all of the obvious places
Was there ever a reason for us to be apart?
The air that fills up this room says,
"not hardly"
So this is where you end, and you and I
begin ...
(That's where you and I, you and I begin)
The greatest romance that's ever been sold
The greatest romance that's ever been sold
