FDeluxe- Nothing Compares 2 U

It's here. If I'm not allowed to post it here, please take it down. Haven't posted here in a few years and haven't looked at the rules. Just didn't want people to miss it.

It's really bittersweet. And quiet beautiful. The strings.....man oh man.

It's the best tribute I've heard/seen thus far. It's beautiful, helpful, and needed. 💜

Going to listen, now that The Current have stopped mind-raping me.

Outside of The Time, The Family's album is by far my favorite project by one the proteges. I still have it on cassette, but have nothing to play it on and I want to hear it BAD!

I loved it.

It's now the definitive version for me.

Loved how they used Clare Fischer's original string arrangement.

Loved it.

I'm sorry but nothing compares to Sinead's version. She made it a better song IMO. I always found P's version on Hits/B Sides underwhelming. This is the only time I've preferred another singer's version to one of P's songs, however.

I thought I was past the tears stage, but this choked me up somehow. But now I'm realizing that probably will periodically get weepy for a long time when I hear the right song at the right time..or wrong song at the wrong time. neutral

Got damn near emotional just before Eric's solo. I always love him on Ps records sad.

Fabulous version. If only the full family studio album (with Princes vocals) would circulate. i have it in very average quality - but someone please release this in pristine quality. Up near the top of my list of holy grails...

Prince's version will always be the best, but The Family is pretty darn close.........better than Sinead's lol
