My votes go to Ginuwine When Doves Cry and Mariah Carey The Beautiful Ones.

"Guinevere" was done as a joke by me to test out my Tascam 8-track cassette multi-track recorder in 1994.


All the "hipster" and "emo" kids loved it back then (1994-5). And they hated Prince and his version, thought his (and him) was cheesy. No matter how much I said listen to the real song "Pheremone", they couldn't care less about it. This was the same crowd that then loved Beck and his more comedic tunes.

I had one girl write a fan note all the way from Washington (I'm was in Austin, Texas), I had one guy write from Los Angeles to see if "the band" was signed, and I had one guy in Austin shout the whole thing back to me in the same vocal style...


well i don't care what anybody else says i think it's absolutely fantastic

nod



thanks! I don't feel bad if other people are irritated by it, I can always gaze at my two fan letters.... lol

There is a youtube vid somewhere I saw of him doing Purple Rain and I think When Doves Cry is on his CD.

One Clay Aiken fan said he did it better than P. Go figure
