Anyone heard Ani DiFranco do "When U were mine"? It's very passable and enjoyable. She does it a little bit slower and it's just her and an acoustic guitar. Mmmmmm. | |

I really like Leann Rimes cover of "Purple Rain". I think she really nailed it.
There are many terrible ones that I thankfully can't remember. | |

1) MC Hammer's version of Soft & Wet is just atrocious.
2) Elvis Costello's attempt at Pop Life is a close second. "This is the delivery boy from the liquor store.....I brought U some champagne the other day!" | |

The worst cover of a Prince song was by.....ANYBODY who tries to sing a Prince song. Even in if you're in the shower or trying to sing along with him. You suck. Ha! ![]() ![]() ![]() [Edited 3/25/05 22:33pm] Onion Juice appears courtesy of Streethop.com | |

Haven't heard that. I hate to say it but the worst Prince cover I've heard (even worse than Tom Jones doing kiss) is Ani doing "When Doves Cry". | |

Now, I love my girls but, how did they pull that one off without changing the song? It's totally about a guy asking his girl about their relationship. As girls wouldn't they have to change it to if 'If eye was your Homie?' and leave out the part about hair washing? Just intrested and curious. Gonna find it later and listen. Shake....shake, shake, shake. | |

Okay, isn't the worst cover of a Prince song done by none other than...Prince himself.
The culprit: 1999-The New Masters. Why, Prince, why??? Okay, technically, it's a remake and not a cover but I haven't had a chance to slam this misguided, money hungry, godawful venture in a while. All good things they say never last... | |

OnionJuice said: Ifsixwuz9 said: Melissa Morgan - Do Me Baby Melissa Morgan's version of "Do Me Baby" is far from terrible. In fact, her version is better Prince's. Her's is more smooth and sensual than his. I think thats probably one of only covers that's acutally better than the original done by Prince himself. [Edited 3/25/05 15:51pm] Totally agree | |
