'didn't cha know' - erykah badu's version vs. prince's i personally have to go with erykahs.
the version ive heard her do live and on record is much better than princes. rhonda has a lovely husky voice which fits the song well but erykahs reading of the song is the definitive and more authoriative one. | |

I agree. Erykah's version, although Prince's version is very nice.  | |

well i think that's cause it's erykah's song, i know i tend to be partial to prince's versions when i hear them first, plus he and rhonda only do a snippet and while she can play the hell out of that guitar her voice isn't really suited to the song ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
when i'm alone in my room, i keep dreamin about u | |

prince should have let rhonda sing all of it. his voice doesnt seem to go with the song as well as hers does. | |

Seeing Erykah do it here in Dallas at the aftershow with Prince on backing vocals was the ultimate version. | |

erykah gets my vote...during the Oakland show, Rhonda's mic wasnt mix right and you could barely hear her...the song is very simple and you need a distinctive voice to give it weight...the whole character and emotion of the song comes from Erykah...The girl just has a kick arse attitude... | |
