I like the normal mix better, and the instrumental mix which is the same without the vocals. My art book: http://www.lulu.com/spotl...ecomicskid

The original is much better. Definitlely one of Prince's best "dark" songs. __________________________________________________

Love both versions. i had actually heard the "Uptown Mix" 1st as I had bought the 12' single while looking for new Prince stuff at the time. The opening guitar solo is awesome, reminds me of his opening solos for "SIGN O THE TIMES" on the "SIGN.."tour. The original album version seems more haunting. Great track. If U came 2 get your 'Purple Rain' on...U'RE IN THE WRONG HOUSE!!!!!! | |

i hope that one day we'll get to hear a version with him on vocals.
until then, this remains one of my fav tracks he gave to another and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

Very powerfull & dramatic vocals,the music & production is very atmospheric too. I loves it!  "We just let people talk & say whatever they want 2 say. 9 times out of 10, trust me, what's out there now, I wouldn't give nary one of these folks the time of day. That's why I don't say anything back, because there's so much that's wrong" - P, Dec '15 | |

101 is a hot track; I've always like that one. Ah, the days when there was depth to Prince lyrics. And Sheena Easton really delivers with her performance.
I prefer the original; no mix necessary. And I agree with the sentiment about someday hearing Prince's vocals on this. That would be a real treat. | |

I absolutely love the original track. Still one of my faves from anyone after all these years. I never liked the remixes very much...took away what I loved about that song. |

Love 101. YouTube has a few remixes, I don't know which is the Prince remix. But the remixes there are quite awful. They wipe everything that was great about the original clean. | |
