Ultimate Prince?

Pros: Some good Songs

Cons: cost too much

Ultimate Prince? Lets start by saying I grew up in the MTV 1980 era so nostalgia took part in this purchase. First the songs: Disc 1 1. I Wanna Be Your Lover 2. Uptown 3. Controversy 4. 1999 5. Delirious 6. When Doves Cry 7. I Would Die 4 U 8. Purp...le Rain 9. Sign "O" the times 10. I Could Never Take The Place Of Your Man 11. Alaphabet ST. 12. Diamonds and Pearls 13. Gett Off 14. Money Don't Matter 2 Night 15. 7 16. Nothing Compares 2 U 17. My Name Is Prince Not a bad mix but as you can see some songs u expect for and ultimate prince missing. Most Notably the Most Beautiful Girl in the World. Stands out to me. I am sure there are others but to me that am a definite missing song I am not sure I consider my name is prince on of his greatest hits. Now for the Worst part of this set Disc 2: The songs: 1. Let's Go Crazy (Special Dance Mix) 2. Little Red Corvette (Dance Remix) 3. Let's Work (Dance Remix) 4. Pop Life (Fresh Dance Mix) 5. She's Always In My Hair (12" Version) 6. Rasberry Beret (12" Version) 7. Kiss (Extended Version) 8. U Got the Look (Long Look) 9. Hot Thing (Extended Remix) 10. Thieves in the Temple (Remix) 11. Cream (N.P.G. Mix) The only thing worse than remix's are live on an ultimate disc. This would better be severed as a Prince remix single release and give us the songs we know and love. This set is all in all a very big disappointment the remix's aren't that great cream is the worst of them sound utterly ridiculous. They could have at least had both versions on the set to show the difference and honor its title This set is not worth more than 10 bucks and even then it's a rip off it is no means the Ultimate Prince getting his previous 2 greatest hits discs are much better than this set. If they take and opened CD back I return it. It is that bad. Read more Less
