I think this is probably my favorite Prince track. Prince had like hundreds of singles so it's kind of hard to narrow them down but I can say for sure that this is on the top of my list. This was the Jam. Im about to go play this right now.  |

Awesome song from a great album. I listen to this quite often. This was right before he fell of into wonderland.

I thought this was a weak follow-up to Cream. The charts and nation seemed to disagree though.

I thought this was a weak follow-up to Cream. I beg to differ. I liked "Cream", but I loved "Diamonds & Pearls". |

His music just started to lose a lot of it's originality at this point. While his music was still a step above most R&B at the time, he had fallen so far from what he was capable of lyrically and conceptually several years earlier. Catchy is about all I can say for this one.

Diamonds And Pearls went to #3 in 1992 but went to #1 on R&R

I like it.. I agree that "Cream" was better.

This is a beautiful and somewhat fascinating song; one of Prince's last great ones.

One of my favorite Prince singles. I prefer his 80s works though.

Love it, the addition of Rosie's insane vocals make the song for me.

Amazing song. His best '90s hit for sure, but I don't know all his '80s hits.

Serene but really cheesy, like a wedding song. Probably my favorite Prince ballad.
