Nothing Compares 2 U

In my opinion, it would be a great treat to get a studio version of this from Prince in the future. What do you guys think? wink

Yep but just voice and piano, and candy or Macao in the background with a lil horn!
Then sell it world-wide and make millions as it goes 2 number1.

I've always felt all prince's versions have been more emotional.

My all time favorite version of this song is the one from the Nude tour..just Prince and his piano ( ok, and some keys in the background ...and Michael B )

I agree. I like Prince's version better than Sinead but the one I have has Rosie singing w/him. I never really liked her. I think a studio version would be great, but I would get sick of people saying "Who does Prince think he is copying Sinead O'Conner like that?" That would piss me off!

Piano and voice version would be great.

I'd simply like the Family version with Prince on Vocal. I imagine that is what the "original" will sound like.

I prefer Sinead's as well -- even when she does it live; though, I do miss the sax solo from The Family's original.

There are some aspects of Sinead's that I like better...I love how she does the chorus. But I think a P studio version would be awesome.

I can't stand the Prince and Rosie version. My vote still goes for the original on The Family album.

To all those who prefer Sinead´s version over Prince´s...how many of you have heard Prince´s version from the Nude tour ??
I´m just asking because I don´t like the version with Rosie and I think most other versions have too much sax but the Nude tour live version kills Sinead´s version...
