It's not quite so simple. Such songs as \"Controversy\" delve into politics; \"Purple Rain\" and \"I Would Die 4 U\" explore Prince's deeply felt religious iconography. And, with only rare exceptions, Prince's songs tend to be more teasing and erotic than blatant. Even the most outrageous tunes, like \"Head,\" have a sly wit that marks them as much more than Penthouse Forum titillation material. Bottom line: these 18 tracks are the very pinnacle of '80s and early '90s pop-funk. THE HITS TWO contains two previously unreleased tracks, the funky \"Peach\" and the calculated-to-shock \"Pope.\" This disc and its companion volume are also available as a box set with an essential bonus third disc of b-sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: R\u0026amp;B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Prince","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45707584929875,"sku":"KOT9B8-M6M3-4I","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0577\/3561\/0451\/files\/prince-greatest-hits-2_UpXC1.jpg?v=1781665086","url":"https:\/\/lovepeoplerecords.com\/products\/prince-greatest-hits-2-lp-m","provider":"Love People Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
