Prince Covers Over the years, I've enjoyed Prince's covers. Right now, I'm listening to "Creep". I also like "Crimson & Clover" & "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" (would love to find MP3). What's your favorite Prince cover? What Prince cover are you interested in but haven't heard yet? | |

for me it's a toss up between One of Us and Every Day is a Winding Road "Grace": "Do you always keep lingerie in your glove box?"

"I Can't Make You Love Me" is the worst. The whole rap about "bedsroom slash church" is embarrassing to an otherwise great song. George Michaels' version is the best.

Prince's best cover is, if it exists, "Like A Prayer". Long rumored, and I wanna know/hear/experience/judge-the-fuck-out-of it. Most of the other covers on Emancipation weren't bad though. how can u say that his cover of "like a prayer" is his best cover....if you have never herd it ? ? ?..... Thats like me saying "wally" is his worst song to date...even though it was never released to the public... I love that bedroom/church nonsence...."U can imagine the offering" Regardless I allways appreciate ur input ern... | |

Prince covering "Like A Prayer"? Where did you hear he covered that song & when did he cover the song? © iwonderu007

One Of Us. The simple borrowed electronic drum beat and incredible guitar is fucking brilliant. Purple Fact #542: Prince can make a Weeble™ fall down. | |

Prince has done lots of live covers. I would love to hear (Got 2) Give It Up. Yes. Officially released there aren't many covers so perhaps I'll pass on the CD.

Anyone else dig "Whole Lotta Love" from the Alladin DVD? [Edited 7/3/09 12:03pm] I love it a whole lotta. Purple Fact #542: Prince can make a Weeble™ fall down. | |

That would be great to hear Prince sing "I"m down on my knees, I want to take you there." LOL My favorite live cover would have to be Just My Imagination from the infamous Lovesexy aftershow. One Of Us is another great cover. Although it is much better live than on cd, as is most of his songs in my opinion. | |

surprised no one mentioned the honky tonk woman cover...its was horrible,but it was a cover I just watched him do jailhouse rock (just the first verse) which led into calhoun square on a old video..not sure if that counts.. "OMGl,Isn't that Prince on the television Saul?, is he the strangest thing you've ever seen or what?" | |

Didn't he do a part of Patti Page's "How much is that doggie in the window" years ago? I think I recall having it on a bootleg. Making love and music are the only things worth fighting for. | |

He used part of that in a segment on the Hit N Run tour in 1986. It was kind of used as a segue or an intro to another song. Ernest L Sewell, IV

I remember being at Paisley Park on night back in 96 or 97 and they played a recording of Prince covering "Fight the Power" by Public Enemy. I can't remember much about it, other than I thought it was the sh-- and that I knew I'd never hear it again. | |

I totally forgot that P recorded a cover of Fight The Power. Add this to the unreleased stuff that I would love to hear. Who rapped on the track? Prince? Purple Fact #542: Prince can make a Weeble™ fall down. | |
