Tell me help me tell me please

I just heard on radio a really good version of HOW COME U DONT CALL ME ANYMORE and had no idea who's it was.
Woman singin, pretty voice, quite faithful version to original, quite modern r'n'b style...
thats all i can say

i trust u fams. U know so tell me

That would be Alicia Keys. There's a remix version being played at the moment too which is nowhere near as good.

Thanks for the very quick answer. I knew i could trust u fams...

Damn I hate the way Ms.Keys raped that beautiful song.

You are welcome!

Nice sunglasses too

Maybe not, Alicia is not the only one to sing that song. Soulful songstress Stephanie Mills recorded that same song way back in the day. It was a modest hit for her at the time.

I thought you guys knew that.

It depends what radio station they heard it on BILLY.The odds are very good it was Alicia Keyes though.Billy.Will I see you at Alicias performance next month at the State Fair?...The Great Minnesota get Together...

But yet I bet that you love the way that Prince raped Joni's beautiful song.

Alicia s version is great, it gave me goosebumps when i heard it last year on her album. Of course prince version is better. Alicia is a great musician.

Where the hell is this song on Princes work anyway? Deprived... not even heard it before!!! HELP!

I could be very wrong, but I believe it was the b-side to "1999" or something like that.

I´m sorry feel a little silly...haven´t heard the original version yet But dieing to do so.

I don´t like the fact that Prince covers from other artists, he´s a too good artist to do that.

No disrespect to Alicia though.

You can also find it on The Hits/The B-sides.

I haven't yet heard anyone on the TV mention that it's a Prince cover. Not one person! He get's none of the credit for what I consider, one of his best tunes!

It's also on the Girl 6 soundtrack

LIL MAN's verison of this song is awesome. One of his best B-sides. Got a nice gospel feel to it. This is the kind of stuff he can do when it's just him on a piano. Sometimes more is less...indeed!!!

Sometimes LESS is MORE...MY BAD!!!
