Best Version of Love Thy Will Be Done?

The short clip that Nik West posted on instagram is so moving. I feel like it was a goodbye gift for her to cherish. What is the best full version of this amazing song?

I love the Paris 98 version and the recent piano version in Sydney is beautiful, so either of them would be my choice

The full-lenght Martika version, with the strings coda at the end.

No other renditions I listened to are so full emotionally.
Even the more stripped original P's versions sounds like they are missing something.

Princes demo/original version does it for me. it shows his creativity ( like making This could be Us from a joke phrase!) and his emotional sincerity in a way that is similar to If I was ur girlfriend. OH and he is singing it in a way that is most instructive to Martika as to how he imagined her vocal should go I think. its an amazing glimpse of creative process , how fluid and natural it was for him

I am liking his libe versions with the guitar. I dont like the slower demo. I pray that a sounboard of this song is eventually officially released. It is up there with moonbeam levels as my favorite unreleased track.
