Which Prince songs sound like they belong to another artist?

For example, 'One Song' by Michael Jackson.

It's not bad, it's just a little bland. That said, it actually manages to be one of the high points on Rave.

I always thought that this song was a second cousin of I Wish U Heaven. Not that I'm making generalisations or anything.

Heavenly, "Betcha by golly wow"was from another artist.

Personally I think, Strollin' is so not like Prince, too mellow and clean cut.

"I Could Never Take The Place Of Your Man" sounds like it could be sung by Chris Isaak or some other New-Country act.

Lenny Kravitz, but his song, "See You Again" sounds just like this anyway.
