Prince - The Beautiful Ones Lyrics
Baby, baby, baby
What's it gonna be
Baby, baby, baby
Is it him or is it me?
Don't make me waste my time
Baby, baby, baby
Can't u stay with me tonight
Oh baby, baby, baby
Don't my kisses please u right
U were so hard 2 find
The beautiful ones, they hurt u everytime
Paint a perfect picture
Bring 2 life a vision in one's mind
Always smash the picture
Always everytime
If I told u baby
That I was in love with u
Oh baby, baby, baby
If we got married
Would that be cool?
U make me so confused
The beautiful ones
U always seem 2 lose
Baby, baby,
Baby, baby,
Baby, baby,
Baby,
What's it gonna be baby?
Do u want him?
Or do u want me?
Cause I want u
Said I want u
Tell me, babe
Do u want me?
I gotta know, I gotta know
Do u want me?
Baby, baby, baby
Listen 2 me
I may not know where I'm going (babe)
I said I may not know what I need
One thing, one thing's 4 certain baby
I know what I want, yeah
And if it please u baby
Please u, baby
I'm begging down on my knees
I want u
Yes I do
Baby, baby, baby, baby
I want you
Yes I do

Prince The Beautiful Ones Comments
Lui...💜🍃
2020 ANYONE LISTENING?
Just love. That’s all just love. I adore the song & the scene. LOVE
Even now, I can't forget the shock when I first heard this song in middle school. At first I thought a really crazy person was singing. It is so sad that no one in this world can ever hear such a desperate, sad, ghostly voice.
Morris Day sitting to the side like a PUNK...He KNEW he couldn't compete with "The Kid" on this one! LMBO!
Man I love all of his music 💜💜💜💜💜
He was no joke when he shouted DO U WANT HIM!? DO U WANT ME!😭😭😭🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾💜💜💜💜💜 she over there with watery eyes she is found guilty knowing she did wrong
Bilal...
Poor prince smh. She was a beautiful Ho. This scene is so dammm emotional 😭
Prince stills send chills down my spine. Rest In Power
Soo Bad! 🔥...I miss him so! ❤
back to '80s, MJ was king, everybody love him. suddenly prince become as big as MJ, i just wonder who dare to compete the king, it make me curious who is this freak. so i went to movie purple rain. once this song is played, i done. from the day onward, prince become one of my fav idol. RIP my beautiful one.
This movie and his love of women is the reason why I created this > https://thebookofsultry.blogspot.com/ Thank you PRINCE!
Incredible song from one of the best albums in 80s! Purple Rain and Thriller are hard to beat
That was the ultimate block. Morris didn't stand a chance with Apollonia from the first chord.
Awesome song, from the best rock movie ever, and one of my favorite scenes in the film!
Fuckin Pimp.
OMG I can't breathe 🤣😂🤣😂At 2:28 Morris said no this MF didn't!! And at 3:38 he looked at her and Yup it was confirmed LMAO he lost that before he could get it. 😂🤣 his face says it all.
Can anyone explain why this song is so popular... I can't even make out the words in the song.
Prince...……. My Idol since 1985. Miss you man. Goddamn. what a time to be alive to see you.
saw this movie without permission, went to the concert at Allstate Arena (Sheila E opened & it was my first concert ever). And a buddy dared me to sing this song in the street at the house of a girl I liked...which I did. This album & movie have SOOOO many great memories of being young!!!
🔥🔥🔥#untilthisday
2019..almost 2020..my all time favorite couples rollerskate song.
Certainly the most powerful love song of these latest decades
No other race on the planet, and this is not being disrespectful to any other race, this is just complete truth.. No other race on planet is , as God gifted talented as black people, it just in our DNA.. The true kings and queens of the Earth chosen by God Almighty..
PRINCE AND APOLLONIA WERE TOO BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE .....THE SONG WAS PERFECT FOR HIS LOVE MESSAGE TO HER👳
Prince snatched her soul!
Lol I played this to my ex back in the day. She broke up with her boyfriend & came back to me. True story. Between prince & me she didn't stand a chance. Prince my guy. HA¡!!!!!!!
This guy blows my mind. I used to listen to this as a hormonal 15 year old and it stunned me. Now I’m 45 and I consider it even more of a masterpiece.
God given talent - and I’m not even religious eeeek
Prince was the greatest of all time imo.may he rest in peace.
The beautiful one's you always seem to lose
"I may not know where I'm going baby
I may not know what I need
One thing.... one thing is for certain baby, I KNOW WHAT I WANT AND THAT'S TO PLEASE YOU BABY,
I'M BEGGING DOWN ON MY KNEES,
I WANT YOU!
That's the inner feelings of a man on display to your girl....the securities and the weaknesses.
pulls shirt off right side and says one things 4 certain baby I know what I want...morris it's a wrap, go home..the kid got her
Seen this at the Drive-in..in my mind prince was singing to Meeeee!!!!! Dam!!!!!He said cause I want u.
this might help
It's YOU!!
Amo esta música
More than music. This is art in its highest form.
does anyone else always come back to this video or it’s just me ?
Me I do
You’re not the only one 😉
Prince wasn't just in a class by himself...He owned the school!
He was a true artist, in every way, shape and form...He played the guitar as well as Jerry Lee Lewis played the piano, wrote songs as well as Spielberg directed films, and sang as well as Da Vinci painted.
When the world lost Prince, it left a void in the musical arena as massive as the Grand Canyon because, though short, in physical stature, musically speaking, he was as tall as the Empire State Building in New York City, as famous as the Taj Mahal in India, and as revered as the Amazon Rainforest in Brazil.
Fuckin' amazing
Dig if you will the picture
of you and I engaged in a kiss as we purify ourselves in the waters of Lake Minnetonka....
🎤 🎤 🎤 🎤 PRINCE play it back 🎧 purple mood 🎵 r&b 👑 ♠
I love this nigga right here mi youngest son is named after him rip😪😓😭
Beautiful Ones, Hurt you Everytime!
Still gives me chills in 2019. I saw this when I was only 5 years old in 1984
Me too. Same age
I was 5 as well. And I totally agree. Song is burned into my soul.
I was 4 years old
When you pore out your heart in a love song on stage and shut the MF down, this is how it's done, period! Prince in his prime... Timeless!
Straight up!

A brilliant song, mow a brilliant book. All the feels💜
This is fantastic, epic build up, great lighting, captures some unique realm
This it it..what an EPIC masterpiece of a song. Divine, so thankfull that saw him once times ago. So missed..
The Man!
Esoteric symbolism shown on the tray the waitress holds up at the very beginning of the video as she walks thru crowd. “V”...can you spot it?
Nice performance sounds the same as his CD one of the greatest singers R.I.P Prince
Prince is a musical genius, he was also a inspiration and song writter for many other artists he is a American Icon
This song is in this interview with Prince's biographer.

Domo Jones yes,he wasn’t playing with her😂
Masterpiece...
Baby, baby, baby
What's it gonna be
Baby, baby, baby
Is it him or is it me?
Don't make me waste my time
Don't make me lose my mind baby
Baby, baby, baby
Can't you stay with me tonight
Oh baby, baby, baby
Don't my kisses please you right
You were so hard to find
The beautiful ones, they hurt you every time
Paint a perfect picture
Bring to life a vision in one's mind

And if it please you baby
Please you, baby
I'm begging down on my knees
I want you
Yes I do
Baby, baby, baby, baby
I want you
Yes I do
Unbelievable
This is a surreal moment in the movie. One the one hand, you have a performance that is arguably one of the most passionate in the history of music. But the song is set against a foil/ antagonist that is a virtual caricature (Morris Day). Don't get me wrong, Morris Day as an actor showed nice comic and dramatic range, but in the end, he was one of the most cartoonish characters ever lol
He took it from MJ 3:57
Prince was special. This is no ordinary song.
Clark Parker that’s exactly why i don’t want them to his biopic. he’s not someone you can play in a movie. he’s literally not human
@monday week agree
monday week true

This is a fact. This song is burned into my soul for as long as I live. It’s just a different piece of music.
Remember when those "Tickle Me" Muppets were so popular about 20 years ago? I got down on my knees and prayed before our Star Of David for the Chanukkah Fairy to bring me a "Tickle Me" Apollonia. Alas, all I found under the Menorah was a humidifier and a dehumidifier. So I just put them in the same room and let them fight it out.
One in a billion
Can't you stay with me tonight😘🎶🎵💏Giamara💗2019😛
Thank you my King for sending me this song... You know who you are 😉
*36 YEARS AGO TODAY*
This jam has always rolled out the PURPLE carpet, for me...especially and in particular, towards the ending; (3:15) his vocals go into a unique-off-scale-yearning; one that stamped him famous.
I know what I want yea!!!!! The emotion he puts n2 his performances brings it 2 life
At 3:19 Morris Day received the biggest cockblock ever experienced by mortal man! Apollonia drenched the chair she was sitting in........
Church!! He just picked off the pass for a int and ran it back for 80 yard touchdown and the win. Legendary!!
Blocked by Prince!!!
Lol im crying
LMAO facts
Lol ain't that the truth. I did it to another.
Simply one of the best performance by a great entertainers you will be forever be in my song collection miss you
Mariah and Dru Hill do a great version of the song.
Yes, romantic, I like that, your right it is. I love love.! I wanted to write a comment about Beyonce and her performance, but the B hive would have wanted to slit my throat for not digging her version. Maybe I just don't like her no more, I think it was her collapsing belly and her supposedly being pregnant with twins. Oh and i didn't like that a man impersonator was performing as her at the super bowl that one year. Scared me shitless, hehe. Oh and I don't like how she was a full grown woman when she first came out early 2000s acting like she 15 so her talent would be received as extraordinary. Pfft. To me, she's a faker. Oh and when (fake, staged or real) she let her Loyd Christmas hair cut looking sister kick camel Joes ass in the elevator ha, what kind of weirdo let's some bitch attack their man. Shyt, I'm nosey and I want an explanation Bey! 🤗 I don't know who she's doing sexual favors for but the rule of life is bald ass Beyonce can do no wrong. There's no way people like her that much, she's just always trending and so the followers go her way. Her music, I used to love, but I don't like when a person is put on an undeserving pedestal, the ho sings, she don't feed starving kids or serve the hungry thanksgiving dinner. Sorry I wrote a book. But damn shes... I don't even know, I just know people, her fans, they r blind and dumb, Beyonce don't care about them, she dont read their comments nor care so I wish they'd stop confessing their undying love for her and get over their hard on for that industry slave, need I say, that's with ALL DUE RESPECT😆
@Rain Hernandez Beyonce is overrated....since Destiny's Child days Kelly Rowlands is way better.
@Nan I agree, I wasn't gonna say it, I'm too scared of the Bhive😅 glad u said it though 😉
@Nan Beyonce is overrated hahaha 🤗😰
@Rain Hernandez she's got them hoodwinked same as the industry. The way the "hive" fights for her etc not to mention how she can never do or be wrong signals robots to me and is downright ridiculous.
The slow start to the unbridled passion at the end is unmatched
1:28-1:40 she was fucking prince in several different positions in her head
She wasnt thinking about no Morris after that. Wish I could find a woman that I would care enough about to put on a performance like this
But Morris has a brass water bed
A 45 year old woman with two sons and to this day I feel like a high school girl on my first crush wow Prince love you always
Baby, baby, baby
What's it gonna be
Baby, baby, baby
Is it him or is it me?
Don't make me waste my time
Don't make me lose my mind baby
Baby, baby, baby
Can't you stay with me tonight
Oh baby, baby, baby
Don't my kisses please you right
You were so hard to find
The beautiful ones, they hurt you every time
Paint a perfect picture
Bring to life a vision in one's mind
The beautiful ones
Always smash the picture
Always every time
If I told you baby
That I was in love with you
Oh baby, baby, baby
If we got married

You make me so confused
The beautiful ones
You always seem to lose
Baby, baby
Baby, baby
Baby, baby
Baby
What's it gonna be baby?
Do you want him?
Or do you want me?
Cause I want you
Said I want you
Tell me, babe
Do you want me?
I gotta know, I gotta know
Do you want me?
Baby, baby, baby
Listen to me
I may not know where I'm going (babe)
I said I may not know what I need
One thing, one thing's for certain baby
I know what I want, yeah
And if it please you baby
Please you, baby
I'm begging down on my knees
I want you
Yes I do
Baby, baby, baby, baby
I want you
Yes I do
Piano, guitar, drums plus at least 14 other instruments. Genius.
It was more than 17 instruments
She had no choice to pick him.
jimipurple123 cuZ she cheated 🙁 now she sees all her guilt and have taste her own medicine
What a artist, yes he is an artist. No artists in music now.
Prince is totally remarkable and this sing is so soulful even though it's a movie he put his L0ve, emotions and greatness all in one. Prince music will never ends but last a life time. We L0ve and miss ya😍
This song is in this interview with Prince's biographer.

When it comes to the males God Jesus and Prince
Nick Bell I love Prinxe but no. Just God and Jesus
I can't 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Saw Prince MSG 2011 (?) . Waiting for show to start lights went down and about 20 seconds later the thumping of the piano keys to this song. The shit was on from there on. Damn I miss those shows
This song and my passionate psychosis has turned me into a karaoke legend. TBC, my voice sucks and prince is god, but I pour my entire heart and souls into it every single time because a prince doesn’t give me a choice not to. Greatest love song that’s ever been written and ever will be.
For you kareokers...commits fully and you’ll be worshipped.
This is the truth. I don't even have to comment. If you give this song 100% at a karaoke contest you'll win simply because it's that damn good of a song. I know from experience. Beat 5 great singers by performance. Can barely carry a tune but I carried the crowd that day. Won a trip to Las Vegas. Didn't go sadly... didn't want to lose on national tv lol
I would like to see video of this
This is also my Grand Final Fantasy Karaoke song. For nearly ten years, I would end the night with this and my bar and grill crowd would go bananas. But after Prince death, I found myself too heartbroken and ruin to do this song proper again. The last time I did it was the day after his pasting and by the time I was done, I was in complete grief stricken tears. I had to retire it from my Karaoke playlist.
💜💔💜😭💋
Most underrated singer of all time
Most underrated gitar player too
Hardly under rated. He is a musical genius in every aspect of the word. People loved knew and respected this man in his entirety. Fucking legend. People will listen to Prince forever...
Prince is KING
Just an epic song! EPIC!! But what else should we expect from the MASTER, THE PURPLE WONDER!!
This song is in this interview with Prince's biographer.

He did this exactly like that in concert in 8....every bit from purple rain was played in his live concert in the D....DETROIT....November 8, 1985 my 16th birthday was the next day!!! What a gift he was 💜💜💜💜💜👍👍
You are right... I was there too <3
Of course...love my man💜💜💜💜💜
No one can take a song's intensity from 2 to 10, then out of nowhere to 15 the way Prince does. Apollonia had no chance.
@Ze'Queen DivaLoach about the Beyonce version, I wondered if I was only being hard on her because I had only heard Mariah Carey sing it so I was probably comparing these 2 girls. But na, Queen B, more like Queen Shit on Turd Island. I'm no one to judge but, she won't see this so no harm, as if she would care anyway😄
Beyonce can
Tell me about...u can feel the intensity down to your bones!
You are so right. But at that point in time, would anybody ever say no to Apollonia? She is absolutely gorgeous
Yeah,.. the song Was actual written about Vanity...He even said it in an interview. Then again Vanity was the women he was actually in a real relationship with. Apollonia was only acting out that part. Also , if You really pay attention to the lyrics of the whole Purple Rain sound track. A lot of those songs was based on his relationship with Vanity and their brake up.
STILL AMAZING... I would play this song full throttle in my car with my three baby boys in the back seat.. eventually left my heart dead husband for my passionate tan skinned brunette... He always wanted a white skin blonde... We both finally found Heaven
Sick it doesn't make no sense a man on this earth besides God and Jesus that beautiful
A Beautiful Song, now that's true love and he shows it
Baby making music
Epic and overwhelming!!Brings back some memories from my youth days when I was brokenhearted for the first time in my life.This was the song used to listen when I was feeling that blue.
Just went through it
Myself lol!
