I don't know about previous versions except the album version but this one was beyond funky! It was so deep and witht the dirty bassy funk and his voice.

CONTROVERSY TOUR: AWESOME! LOVE THE LITTLE JAME TOWARD THE END "PEOPLE CALL ME RUDE" 1999 TOUR: SHORT, RAW AND GOD DAMN FUNKY! PURPLE RAIN TOUR: NOT THAT FUSSED ON (TOO SUBTLE) PARADE TOUR: FUN BUT WAAAAY TOO SHORT! LOVESEXY TOUR: OKAY ( I KNOW PEOPLE WISH IT WAS LONGER) NUDE TOUR: STRONG BUT (AGAIN!!!!) TOO SHORT! (SPANISH HAREM BOOT IS AWESOME!) HIT N RUN/CELEBRATION: BOORRING MUSICOLOGY: MEH! 21 NIGHTS: LOVED THE JUMP UP AND DOWN END ANNND FIRST TIME I SAW HIM LIVE PARIS CANAL+: OLLLLLDD SCHOOOOLL!!! AND THANK FUCK...DIFFERENT TO THE 50 OTHER TIMES IT'S BEEN PLAYED IN THE LAST 2 YEARS!!! Since you have the whole collection, maybe you know when and where this recording is from: It's a live version about 6 minutes long with Maceo and the horns going wild in the end. I downloaded it from the NPGMC. Prince ends the song by saying something like: "Don't you let nobody come up in my house and do you like I'm gonna do it". She gave her angels... | |

I had to watch this several times as I was unable to turn away. It was raw, intense, funky, and if I turned back the clock; Prince and I both would be younger. | |
