Ooh This I Need Vs. Lily Was Here

Sorry if it was noticed b4 but Dave Stewart Vs. Candy Dulfer's 1990 hit Lily Was Here (http://www.youtube.com/wa...hSx8uKdD5o) is exactly Prince penned Elisa Fiorillo's Ooh This I Need!!!

Ooh This I Need's bass line & drum track is just the same track slowed down. It was recorded & released after Stewart recorded his own track with Dulfer, indicating that Prince was so infuriated that Stewart stole him his newfound sax player that he rerecorded his own version of the track, the way James Brown used to do with younger funk acts he considered "stole" his style. The funny thing is that Candy got the gig with Stewart after & because she contributed 2 Partyman.
