U're gunna C me

Why has this been re-hashed for the MPLSound CD.
I was far better on One Nite Alone.

The new version is far superior to anything on that lame piano album, even if it is the same song.

PS I think there was a thread on this about 2 or 3 weeks ago.

Prince.org is a cemetery where folks mourn Prince instead of celebrate him and his music. Last time I checked, Prince isn't dead yet.

I like them both. We never will get an answer about why P chooses to re-do or re-release this or that song. I am just happy to get them. biggrin

Love both versions... However the ONA version and the whole album for that fact is very personal. My mother always liked his ballads, and his shirts and eye make-up..lol, when this came out she was recovering from Bone Cancer and learning to walk on her new bionic leg. to this day if I play this CD, she always smiles and says I rememebr you played that for me when i was sick and it put me to sleep. Mother is doing fine she is 6 years in remission as of June 25th, Ironically.

I love both versions.
I didn't expect to love the new version.

It's a song that I never tire of.
Now in either form.

I much prefer the MPLSoUND version. However, we don't really know if it's a "new" version. It's likely there was a studio recording of it long before it made it onto ONA and this could be it for all we know.

I hated just about everything else on ONA, but the original of this song was piano perfection.

There was no reason to re-record it.

It's probably the only real dismantlement of the whole Lotusflow3r set for me. Loving the ONA version, I couldn't help but have high expectations.

The stuttering verses of the new version never really allows the song to flow. It's just too busy, with the song not getting a chance to breathe. In the end, It's only the fact that it's great song that allows it to barely survive this reworking.
