13 Best Songs You Can't Play On Spotify

9. Sign 'O' The Times - Prince

Unfortunately for Prince lovers, or those of you that hadn't previously heard Prince and were looking forward to a YouTube link here, Prince has an issue not just with Spotify but apparently with YouTube too - so much so that it is impossible to find any complete upload of his music at all. That, obviously, is a real shame, because 'Sign 'O' The Times' in particular was heralded as one of his greatest, and a watershed moment in musical history in general. It even prompted Robert Christgau of The Village Voice to brilliantly say that it made "Stevie Wonder sound like a struggling ventriloquist". That said, it's probable that a struggling ventriloquist could still be able to make a better pronunciation of the unintelligible symbol that Prince, or should we say, , has changed his name to.
