Oh, I don't have cable...is the concert available on DVD? I doubt it's the same version--I just played mine and can hear piano and drums, at least.Here's George's MTV performance http://youtube.com/watch?v=Dfd7a1hEJf0 I'd never paid that much attention to it, but his voice is soooo absolutely beautiful and pure. Love me some GM too. His version gives you more of that emotional longing and loss while Prince's version says to me "I'll do anything to make you love me, please baby baby please!!! Give me one more chance to put it on you and turn you out like I KNOW I can." 
BTW,  to George Michael I heard he turned Wembley Stadium out recently. He's REALLY talented. | |

BTW, to George Michael I heard he turned Wembley Stadium out recently. He's REALLY talented.Oooh, thanks for posting that link. I love George Michael.  After watching that I'm pretty sure that is a different version from the one on Ladies & Gentlemen: The Best of GM....the Best of version has different lyrics at the end.
Oh, and just for good measure I re-listend to Prince's version....  It's like he didn't even understand what the song is about AND overproduced the shit out of it. Sorry P. but George's version mops the floor with yours...(and damn is Emancipation a pile of  ) | |

I like both versions but I like Bonnie's a tad better. "Why'd I waste my kisses on you baby?" R.I.P. Prince You've finally found your way back home. Well Done. | |

the vocals should not be "beautiful". they should be heartbroken, reflective and in pain. Space for sale... | |

Serena said: Prince's version is ok until he adds his sex verse, that totally ruined it! That song is supposed to be a heartfelt, sad song. It's not about bangin' boots.
Bonnie's version still remains THE best.
i'm a big fan of Bonnie's original. Prince's version is just terrible. IMO [Edited 6/12/07 7:12am] |

Ok, I just tried listening to George Michaels version, I had to stop it. No thanks! Let it be known I am a huge fan of his..just not of his version.
say what you will about Prince's version, it is still my favorite, I LOVE it even. As long as we are talking cover songs, I also love his version of "One of Us" Ok, you can hit me on the head with a brick now.  | |

(you did ask for it. )
You mean you don't even like GM's version--doesn't have to be your fav but you don't even like it a little? Wow. That's crazy to me. Oh and I hate "One of Us" the song...regardless of whomever sings it.
Totally different strokes...  | |
