Who the hell...

Who the hell gives permission to other artist to sing Prince's music?

Tell me as I am about to hunt them down...

Who gave permission to allow brian mcfadden to sing "nothing compares 2 U" and put out a CD with it on and call it Irish music?

HE CAN'T SING!

To whom it may concern

Are you NUTS, Hard of hearing, lost the plot, desperate for monies?

You need a good kick up the behind...

Own up, who allowed it?

P.S if you did Prince, you owe me 1 hearing aid and you need 1 yourself if you listened and gave permission to allow brian mcfadden to sing the song!

The Irish Connection

Product Description
The Irish Connection is released through BMF Records/EMI. The Irish Connection features Brian’s interpretations of some of the very best in Irish songwriting.
Each track was personally chosen by Brian and range from artists such as Snow Patrol, The Cranberries and Damien Rice to Enya and Van Morrison. Ronan Keating and Brian team up to duet on U2’s epic ‘All I Want Is You’.

The album features phenomenal Irish talent Sinead O’Connor as she joins Brian for the Irish classic ‘Black Is The Colour’ to create their own hauntingly beautiful version. Classic rocker Christy Dignam completes the line-up on Aslan’s own ‘Crazy World’. Produced by both Brian and his long time co-producer Robert Conley, the album was recorded in Dublin and Sydney.

Brian said, "This album is something I have wanted to do for a long time. Ireland has produced some of the greatest songs in history and I decided I would put my own twist on a collection of my favourite ever Irish songs."


So when did Prince become Irish? falloff whoever gave permission I am gonna photoshop your head onto a leprechaun body - you have been warned...

The record makers have obviously made a tenuous link to Sinead O'Connor with that choice.

Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad.

One doesn't need permission to release a cover version. One only needs to pay for it.

Not dead, not in prison, still funkin'...

Prince isnt above anyone covering him, good quality or not.

For someone who is so down on people not woprthy of him covering his music, he sure goes about promoting himself in a wack ass manner.

Agree.
RD, McFadden more likely make people run for the hills. Prince needs to disassociate quickly and whoever running Princes side needs to sort it out eek...

Hope your well RD smile

I'm in England. I have a rough idea of what Loose Women is, (Bagga shite) but I took what I read literally. The post said "Loose woman" and you always have to check these things out. have a lil sniff aound, maybe get underneath and have a good look at what you're dealing with. Just wanted to be sure, that's all. wink
