I really like every version I've heard of this song, but the live one with the great guitar is my favorite. So it's a Yay! | |

The version with the screaming guitar solo, absolutely yay! The other one I have heard but I cannot really remember it.
Oh, and the celebration performance, of course ....  | |

Yay. I especially love the live versions. To GOD be the Glory! | |

The studio version from the mid 90's is one of the single greatest Prince songs of all time. It's incredibly haunting and powerful. I just adore it, and desperately wish I had some sort of .mp3 file of it. If he just put stuff like this up for sale on his damn NPGMC I'd buy it up in a second. The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

YAY to the unreleased, hollow, lonely as fuck version 
The guitar version doesn't do it justice    I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it | |

A big old YAY. It's beautiful and haunting. I would love it if Prince put this song on an official album (I know it's on Xpectation or Xenaphobia or something like that). [Edited 12/31/05 22:18pm] I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

Great song. Remember seeing the video before the "Ultimate Live Experience" tour andhoping it would be on the next album, which of course it wasn't. |

The guitar version doesn't do it justice WHAAAAAT???  That version is AMAZING! Girl, the guitar is killing! It screams so much anger and desperation, there aren't many Prince solos like that. | |

I think it's a little over-rated here.
Besides, one day I found myself absent-mindedly singing 'Smelly Cat' to it and now everytime I hear 'Empty Room', I have Phoebe Buffet in my head.  | |

But when I hear the song it makes me yearn for the other version  I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it | |

but the C-Note version is great too, but in an entirely different way... | |

What about the Xenophobia Celebration performance? His scream on that one is to die for. | |

The guitar driven original all the way.
