Check out my full production cover of "Purple Rain."

Hi, I'm a 22 year old who covers songs for fun using the best of his
home-recording abilities. I'm a big fan of Prince, and I've tried
meticulously to reproduce the greatness of "Purple Rain" while
adding my own touch. Check it out. Comments are greatly appreciated.

All my songs hold no commercial value and are streamable here:

I did listen to a couple yesterday...pretty good really..I enjoyed.

But now today I was going to listen to a couple more, and now I get
this message..."You must be logged in to listen to this track".

And for the most part, I don't sign up just to listen to things.

Thanks for checking out my music obsessed, and saying those nice things. That's weird, I've never heard from anyone about having to log in to the website. Maybe that's a new policy at Imeem. Either way though, I've just tested the site while logged off, and I think that you can listen to any song you want as long as you click on it from the playlist at the top and not the section below. You're right though, I wouldn't want to have to sign-up for a site either just to listen to some songs. Thanks again!

OK, I think I figured it out...yes, using the playlist at the top, you
have to double click right on the name of the song and then it works...
you've got a nice voice....

As covers, these are wonderful.....

cool

Hi

Tried to listen to your music and got interested in a couple of things - really good.

The other thing though is that I went to the videos on imeen and got side tracked to watch "don't watch this if you are squeamish" video - it has a back door trojan attached and should not be looked at all and do not download any software.

Luckily my computer has got every security device going managed to isolate it and quarantine it. But please be warned and as it is attached to your music perhaps you should have a word and get it cleaned up.

All the best - the music is good.
