"Kiss"...Tom Jones
"Purple Rain"...Me First & The Gimme Gimmes

"1999"...Limp Bizkit (live 2000 eve on mtv)
& the whole 'If I Was Prince' tribute cd that i have.
"When Doves Cry"... Ani DeFranco

also i know Darren Hayes has done " eye WIsh U Heaven",but i dont have it yet.& there r a few live covers on WinMX,like FooFighters,Barenaked Ladies,Tori Amos...but im after studio songs,or Sb live ones.
Not just 4 me,it'll b interesting 2 c how many covers are out there,how many artists have been inspired by P & recreated his art.

"When You Were Mine" was also done by Mitch Ryder, and arguably the best-known version. I believe he did this song before Cyndi Lauper.
