Prince was probably one of the most underrated romantic lyricists of our generation and most of us just don’t know it, especially men.

When we get into a fight with our spouses, sometimes we look to cards, or poems to get us out of the doghouse. Where here are ten of the best Prince songs that get you out of any tight situation or at least smooth out the waters a little bit so it doesn’t Snow in April.
