Please name some cover that P has done that is just as bad as Tom’s cover of “Kiss”.

i have 2 admit i prefer his version of everyday is a winding road over sheryl's..i'm thankful he didn't choose 2 do her 1st single ever barf
man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81

I can answer that. Prince destroyed the wonderful I can´t make you love me

Tom Jones´ cover ain´t half as bad!



I disagree... I love Prince's cover of that song.

When Prince covers a song, I am reminded of that In Living Color sketch with the Asford & Simpson-esque duo that oversang the fuck out of songs. Especially his version of One Of Us...good fucking god disbelief

I find that people that complain about oversinging usually know nothing about "soul" or "feeling" P is not Perry Como and we are not looking for that in his music.

Bullshit. One of Us is alright and I am sorry he improved "Everday is a Winding Road"

I honestly think that some of you have lost your abilitity to groove and even if you do not like those covers they are still not as bad as Tom's fuck up.

Say no to crack. P's singing on that song is perfect. Maybe he made it a little to sexual but the signing is top notch.

Worst remake of a Prince song in history confused


there was a thread about this song a long while ago and a person asked if Tom's version ever charted .. and somebody replied and said 'oh, it charted.. it f'in charted ill ' lol lol


Wasn't Kiss kind of a comeback hit for Tom?

I like him...his version of Kiss was good.

It must have been funny when Tom mentioned the birthday thing and prince was like... neutral
Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise.
