kind of sounds like a wuss to me...I don't think that song works for an acoustic arrangement because the beat in the original is so strong.

The boy is obsessed. He has songs called Insatiable and Strange Relationship too.

at around 1.30..I was expecting Prince to crash into the room and shut the whole thing down..put his heel in Darren's mouth and then whole NPG crew rush in and take over the set....I must stop taking those pills confused

sounds good to me....love the simple guitar arrangment...Prince would have been smarter to do something like this instead of that ear bleeding harmonica thing.

why are all yall such haters?

He also did a nice version of I Wish U Heaven on the re-release of his Spin album. Saw him in concert last week and his band played the music to Baby, I'm A Star (which he also performed at Gay Pride in July) and When Doves Cry (played underneath his song Darkness).

Couldn't agree more. That's probably one of my top ten Prince moments, sends shivers down the spine.
PIPS! Eurgh...

It wasn't bad, in fact I liked it until he got to the ' hu, hu, hu, huuuuu' bit - he sounded like he had a bad case of the hiccups.

but overall a nice cover...he's got a good voice...but not a good as P.

He looks like Simon Pegg's weedy younger brother.

True... but having had the misfortune of seeing a whole concert of his (I work at the Albert Hall) he's far more obsessed with himself than he'll ever be with Prince cool

Wasn't Darren arrested recently for making racist remarks at a waiter?

So he's not only a sap but a racist sap biggrin

It's a sweet rendition. If P did more things like this, people would see how awesome he is, (if they don't know already).

Nice voice on this kid...

The police investigated and found nothing racist about the incident.

Do keep up!
