TOP 100 ROCK & ROLL SINGLES OF ALL TIME: #13
13. "When Doves Cry" / Prince
Prince's operatic dancefloor hit from the soundtrack to Purple Rain is unparalleled in its uniqueness. Elaborate guitar riffs, dark drum beats and synthesized organ runs meld into a timeless hit that is all genres at once. All while, with his lyrics, creating a surrealistic picture of romance gone sour.
