CINDY LAUPER!!!!

I never knew she did a cover of "When You Were Mine" in her 'She's So Unusual' album!


That's it, that's all I wanted to say.
Walking alone in the dark, I see nothing u see
I can be in a park, or flying in the…in the deep sea
I wish u’d hold my hand; then everything could b
There’s nothing strange, we’re not deranged
We only want everyday 2 b a Cosmic Day

I like it better than Prince's version.
Her's has a real cool fat anologue 80's sound to it.

DOn't get me wrong--I LOVE the Prince version, but for some reason I just like Cyndi's more.

I've got a boot where Prince does a rocked out version, and I prefer that one over all of them--if he'd only do a studio rendition of it(which I KNOW will never happen).

I like the One Nite Alone Live version of When U Were Mine.
Goodnight, sweet Prince.

That's funny. I had the "She's So Unusual" album even before I had any Prince album. So "When U Were Mine" sung by Cyndi Lauper is the first Prince song I really was into.

I've always kept the utmost respect for Cyndi Lauper (of course not only because of this song). IMHO she is one of the most underrated singer / performer.

Cyndi's version makes me think of Queer As Folk (the U.S. version) lol


Did they sneak that song into an episode and I just never noticed? confuse

I was real dissapointed by that one, The Lovesexy Live version rocks so good though.
