When Doves Cry - help please!

When Doves Cry - help please!


Hi everyone! grouphug

Tonight eye heard the most deliciously yummy cover version of "When Doves Cry" by a female singer eye don't know. music cloud9
The song starts out as slow gentle acapella caressed with a childrens choir and cathedral echo. pray Then it bounces into a dance club groove of "How can u leave me standing ...".

Towards the end there is the passionate refrain of:
"You know that they cry ...You know that they cry ...You know that they cry ...." as drum beats feverishly thump.

Would any wise and kind orgie happen to know who the singer might be? question



Does Prince have to give permission for someone to cover his songs, or does Warner Bros have the final say about things like this? eye heard that Prince doesn't like others to do his songs and wants them to be creative with their own artistry and musicianship. eye thought this is sort of odd though, since for a while he has covered many songs. Now that eye am thinking on this -- what ever happened to the "sample collection" that was to be released years ago? eye remember seeing a full page promo for it on love4oneanother dot com.




(The "When Doves Cry" Bare Naked Ladies live acoustic version is also surprisingly good too!)

Thanks a million!

It's Quindon Tarver (a boy, as far as I know) and this version is featured on the Romeo & Juliet soundtrack volume 2.
