Not sure if this has been covered before, but Orange Records' band White Hassle has free downloads from a live performance up and one of them is Darling Nikki by Prince!
Just scroll down the page to see the downloads http://www.orangerecordin...m/mp3.html

It sucks, wrong chords and all

absolutely awful!!! poor prince i wonder what he thinks??

The foo fighters version is a great cover. I heard it on the radio today. It rocks jhard and stays faithful to the original except they skip the lyric "your darling little prince wants to grind".

How Horrible!!! Sounds like it was recorded in their basment. If you are going to acknowledge a musician by covering one of their tracks, at least try to sound good! Prince, please do not hold it against the rest of us who adore you work!

that version really sucks. no one can do a prince song like the man himself.

yuck, god i hate indie-rock. It's like they removed all the sex from this song. Stupid white people.

It must be bad! It's "No longer available" on the downloads! Perhaps some one from the Prince empire felt sick listening to it and had it removed!

What an intelligent thought,

Nice to know that racism is a thing of the past...
