7 (song):
"7" is a song by Prince and the New Power Generation, from the 1992 Love Symbol album. The 7" B-side was an acoustic version of "7." The 12" single included several remixes of "7", as well as a non-album track called "2 Whom It May Concern." "7" also appeared on two compilation albums: The Hits 1 in 1993, and Ultimate, in 2006. There have been various conjectures on the meaning of the song, and which "7" Prince is in fact referring to.
[edit] Chart Performance
The most successful single from the album in the U.S., "7" was most successful on the Top 40 Pop/Mainstream charts, where it earned a #3 placement. It also performed respectably on the Rhythmic charts (#19). However, it was considerably less popular with R&B/Hip Hop radio, stalling at #61.
The single also performed well in the U.K., rising as high as #27, but falling short of the success of the previous two releases.
Coincidentally, the single peaked at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100.
