    ..........which is great. Now will any DJ play 'Peach' back to back with 'Cream'. Again, I have a monetary offer for the 1st DJ I hear to do this (or other incentive, as appropriate).

    JiveLad. I am a life long fan of Prince and I have never heard of a Prince song called 'Peach'. Is it a new one I haven't heard or something?

    kiss is one of my favourite songs of all time.

    Prince has written loads of hits for other artists.

    He wrote one of my all time favorites. 'Nothing compares to you'. That bald Irish woman did a dreadful cover of it and everyone thought it was hers. His version is much better.

    He's written hits specifically for other artists and never sung them himself. I can't remember which and who tho'.

    Manic Monday - The Bangles
    I Feel for you - Chaka Khan (although he did this one first too)
    Like a prayer - Madonna

    And another of his more obscure moments...George Clinton - Hey Man... Smell My Finger

    Check this Peach (song - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

    I got the CD single when it came out.

    It includes the lyrics:

    Summertime, feelin' fine, getting wild
    All that's on my mind
    Here she comes, dressed in red
    Get her done is all that's in my head
    Her hot pants can't hide her cheeks
    She's a peach

    She was pure, every ounce
    I was sure, when her titties bounce
    Every way, she's a winner
    Turn a gay preacher to a sinner
    No one you want your mama to meet
    She's a peach




    Another of my favs is 'Mountains' which amazingly did not even appear on the triple CD greatest/best of.......

    'Fury' from middle of last year was an excellent track.

    Hell yeah baby. That one's on my 'play as often as you can get away with' list. Which is good, because I'm not allowed to play Cream or Musicology (the other two best for dancing ones) at my regular venue.

    I just played them at a private function. I'll send you a recording.
    How much do I get?

    A recent picture of the purple one. Not bad for someone who turns fifty next year. Before anyone asks...No...he has not had surgery. Isn't he just the most sexiest man you have ever seen? What I wouldn't do...

    I'll wait till I hear the quality of the recording.

    The previous offer (relating to a Northern Soul track) was £20. However, in this case, as it's you, it's more likely to be in the 40-50 range.

    (Pence that is).

    Am a big Prince fan and I've got to say "Not really" in answer to this. A couple of highlights but certainly not the sustained brilliance of his 80s/early 90s work.

    Pains me to say it, but reckon Sinead O'Connor's version was better. Still a great song, though, and Prince deserves the plaudits for writing it.
