Country Artists Cover Prince - the playlist would be....? As I'm listening to Chaos and Disorder, I can't help but remember that "Right The Wrong" is a country song. Then I got to thinking about Prince's rockabilly sensibilities in songs like "Horny Toad", "Delirious", and "Jack U Off".
So if country artists covered Prince songs, in a country style, what songs do you think would be a really good choice for that? I think the ones listed above are a good starting point.
Right The Wrong Horny Toad Delirious Jack U Off
Possible: Gotta Broken Heart Again The Ride Zanalee ICNTTPOYM Guitar With You Baby Knows Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking. |

"Last Heart" would be a contender, right? | |

Gotta be 'Purple Rain'. I mean, it's basically a country song. . Leann Rimes: https://www.youtube.com/w...hF0OfbKG9o . Jackson Taylor (start at about 4:40): https://www.youtube.com/w...bWNNmCYGN8 . Kelly Clarkson: https://www.youtube.com/w...Fheva_Fg6A [Edited 4/17/16 4:49am] | |

I've often thought about this. I've also thought about it from a jazz perspective. Difficult as it is to stay away from all the slow trax, some faster trax would have to be radically rearranged, but that would only lend to bringing something to the party. From each album:
So Blue Still Waiting Gotta Broken Heart Private Joy (with a BIG rearrangement!) Delirious Take Me With U Paisley Park Do U Lie? Forever In My Life Dance On (another big rearrangement) Electric Chair Can't Stop This Feeling I Got Money Don't Matter 2 Night the Morning Papers Dark Shy Right the Wrong Curious Child She Spoke 2 Me Goodbye the Sun, the Moon & Stars U're Gonna C Me What Do U Want Me 2 Do? Silver Tongue Get On the Boat Love Like Jazz (retitled "Love Like Country" just because) No More Candy 4 U Act of God Way Back Home... | |

I was just kidding, i love that song is great; it sounds sooo cool. How did i forget about Dark, those guitars at the end sound quite southern style. | |

Little Red Corvette can easily be a country song. I had a dream Reba McIntyre did Eternity | |
