I'm out. People need to be cool and not try to think they are right. Just because one person likes one version of the song and not another doesn't mean they are shit! It just means that they like the other fucking version. People need to grow up.

Prince's version at La Coruna in 1990 is the best. Orgnote me. Nah. His version on The Ellen Show in '04. "Had to get off the boat so I could walk on water..." |

Sinead's version. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

I'm torn. Sinead's was and is beautiful but it got played
a thousand times a day and it just lost something the 999th time. The video is pretty special too and simple. I really like the video still to this day. I like Prince and Rosie's version but the truth is... I always wish she was the only one singing. He's good on it but Rosie makes you wish she was all alone on the mike making it her own, and we all know she can. I'm not really fan of him singing it on tour. It feels like he's reminding the one guy in the baseball hat whose girlfriend dragged him there- 'hey i wrote this one, case you didn't know baseball hat guy'. Prince gave birth to this beautiful song, Sinead carried it somewhere new. Should've stayed there with it's new mama, or with Aunt Rosie on vacation. No where else.

jdcxc said: Sinead really captures the complex dark psychology of the song. It is truly a brilliant composition but for some reason Prince does not want to probe that side. He turns it into a big band vamp instead of the achingly beautiful heartfelt sympathy card it should be. Maybe it's the same reason he killed "Wally".

I think Sinead´s. "When Michael Jackson is just singing and dancing, you just think this is an astonishing talent. And he has had this astounding talent all his life, but we want him to be floored as well. We really don´t like the idea that he could have it all." | |
