What Rolling Stones song would you like Prince to cover?

I'd love to hear "Salt of the earth" (P could put a killer guitar solo at the end of the song ), "Sing this all together" (very ATWIAD style) and "She's a rainbow".

Did P ever cover a Stones track during one of his gigs? Maybe "Honky tonk women" in London in 1993?

Prince never covered Stones songs, but it has been claimed that the Stones like doing versions of songs that prince likeĀ“s to cover... Miss You, Honky Tonk Woman and Just My Imagination, which was a cover version to begin with wink
If it were not for insanity, I would be sane.

Well he could start by playing the riff to Jumpin Jack Flash because its virtually the same ripp ahem riff as Let`s Go Crazy.

Then he could start singing the first line, but change it slightly.

And then go straight into lets go crazy.

Beast of Burden... But only if he adds a Doug E Fresh or Tony M. Rap interlude in it.

Emotional Rescue, which I think was influenced by early Prince
Wild Horses maybe
Sympathy would be great if only to show he's got a sense of humor
