<!-------ALBUM TEXT ------->
|introduction           = <b>Sign O’ The Times</b> was the first single to be released from [[Prince]]’s ninth album [[Album: Sign O’ The Times|Sign O’ The Times]], released six weeks before the album. The b-side, [[La, La, La, He, He, Hee]], was previously-unreleased.

The cover art depicted new bandmember [[Cat]], with her face obscured by the heart she was holding. It is a common misconception that this was, in fact, [[Prince]].


'''Airplay'''

The single was the most added in both Billboard "Radio Most Added" sections of Hot Black Singles Action and Hot 100 Singles Actions charts on 7 March 1987, with a total of respectively 53 and 115 new adds, showing that a large number of radio stations across the USA had added it to their playlists. <!--Amongst them Power 95 WPLJ-FM in New York, Z-93 and 94-Q in Atlanta, Q105 in Tampa, Y-100 in Miami, WMMS 100.7 FM in Cleveland, WHYT Power 96 FM and Z95.5 WCZY FM in Detroit, Power 104 KRBE FM in Houston, KMEL 106 and 105 KITS in San Francisco, Z-94 FM in Boston, B104 Means Music in Baltimore, WAVA Power 105 in Washington, and WLOL 99 1/2 in Minneapolis.-->


'''Charts'''

Billboard reviewed the single on 7 March 1987 (Vol. 99 N°10, page 77) in the Singles "Picks" section (Records with the greatest chart potential):<blockquote>''"Preview and title track of his forthcoming album; reverse application of of the stark "[[Kiss]]" sound sketches the universal '80s quandary."''</blockquote>

The single reached number 3 on the US Billboard Hot 100 Chart, failing to top the chart due to tremendous success of 2 singles stuck in positions 1 and 2 for several weeks: ''"I Knew You Were Waiting For Me"'' (Aretha Franklin & George Michael) and ''"Don’t Dream It’s Over"'' (Crowded House). It nevertheless reached number 1 on the Billboard Top Black Singles Chart, marking his fifth number 1 on that chart, following [[Single: I Wanna Be Your Lover|I Wanna Be Your Lover]], [[Single: When Doves Cry|When Doves Cry]], [[Single: Let’s Go Crazy|Let’s Go Crazy]] and [[Single: Kiss|Kiss]]. 

<b>Sign O’ The Times</b> fared also very well on the clubs market, reaching position 2 on the Dance Disco - Club Play, and 12-Inch Single Sales.

In Europe, the single showed [[Prince]] consolidated as a sales force outside of the USA, as it topped charts top 10 in the United Kingdom (10), Ireland (6), Belgium (8), The Netherlands (7) and Norway (7). It did also well in New Zealand, reaching position 4 on the the Singles Top 50.
