Prince remakes...

What would you say has been the best song that Prince has remade or covered in concert?

Remade, I would say "Betcha by Golly Wow" and Live, I loved it when he covered "Pass the Peas" and "The Jam" (He did this w/ larry Graham at the ONA afterparty in NYC)

Remade, I would say the latest incarnation of his own Sign O The Times.

Covered in concert would have to be Just My Imagination.

My favorite song that P covered on record would be One Of Us.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

I'd co-sign One of us and I can't make u love me...on the live tip I liked Johnnie B Good, and I feel for U with Chaka, Glamorous Life w/ Sheila E.


I just watched the Betcha by Golly Wow video...so sweet and sad at the same time

I don't understand a lot of the hate for it... but I gotta say that "Betcha By Golly Wow" (1996) is most likely my favorite Prince remake. Live would most likely be "Just My Imagination" (1988).

I know this is gonna sound completely trite, but having been a massive rock fan all my life, I almost popped one off when I heard him rip into the Foo Fighter's 'The Best of You'.

He's been covering Katie Melua's 'Nine Million Bicycles' at The Rio of late, I'd love to know what that's like. I'm not a fan of hers, but I dig the song, and think it would be interesting to hear his version of it.

That said, who the hell thought he'd cover The B-52's 'Rock Lobster'?!? Never saw that one coming!

Gotta agree. I love this cover.. Eye Can't Make U Love Me and A Case of U are a lil better in my mind though..
