The guitar work on this cut is spectacular. Prince's vocals are smashing. Love it. It's really good.

I have the digital version of Lotusflow3r, so didn't have this song until recently. It's WAY better than The Morning After. razz
Really really love it actually.
And I love Lotusflow3r persoanlly, as a whole. A lot more than Planet Earth.

Yeah - I think its fantastic. Love the video too wink Why on earth he replaced it with "The Morning After" (which, whilst an ok cut is not a patch on Crimson) is beyond me!

A fantastic cover from one of his best albums.

I actually prefer The Morning After. Its not musically better or anything, just a personal preference. I take new music over a cover any day.

People going to dislike anything Prince does 1990 and down so I have to say Prince did put his foot into Lotus Flow3r and the songs definitley sound even better live I have to say.

I hadn't paid much attention to this song before Prince's cover. It made me search out the original and the Joan Jett cover. Prince scores a ten in my book with this tune.
Who ever said Prince has lost it - has lost it. The Kid's still got game!

I'm partial to this cover as my father was a Shondell and is still writing music with TJ... but this version rocks, especially the solo!
got Prince?

i love this cover as well, the guitar solo is scorching hot & listened to really loud is the only way. morning after isn't bad but I def prefer C&C.

Hate the 'wild thing' part in the middle. The start and end is amazing though.
