Covering other artists definately. he's doing that more & more now. he doesnt need to. is he bored with his own music? uninspired? his covers (i wont name any specifically-due 2 respect 4 the artists), r definately not half as good as his music. i'd prefer to not have him do them. there r 1 or 2 i like, thats all. he shouldnt let others do his either. is alicia keyes building her career on his talent? seems that way. with "why dont u call me", to "shhh" now. what next? this is unlike prince 2 let this happen. these newbies just havent got the sauce to make it on their own laurels i guess...if it isnt prince, its other covers of artists from the 70's mainly.
May the BELLS ring 4 U even when ur not in love. hug kisses

Covering artists. & he picked some pretty crappy songs to cover. Not that they weren't good the first time, but he really could have torn BBGW & LLMILY to shreds if he wanted. I did however like what he did with Bonnie Raitts "I can't make you love me"

I agree,He could have done better with the other two but i still like BBGW.And even though he "changed the meaning"of bonnie's song.He SMOKED that one(basically it's HIS song now)!!
