I know what I'm about to say will be considered a form of blasphemy by many on the org, but having just downloaded Ginuwine's cover of When Doves Cry, I can honestly say, the impossible has been achieved: he's improved upon the original. The deep, layered vocals of the chorus add a whole new dimension to the track and the more slick and simplistic production helps the track be driven more on the merits of it's melody, rather than hidden behind outdated synths and cheap-sounding keyboards.

Anybody who hasn't heard this, I urge you to download it.

My God, did you trip and fall on your head or something? That cover sucks and I can't stand Ginuwine. He butchered up a classic but then again he butchers up his own songs, especially live. Did anyone see him on Spring Bling on BET this past weekend? Talk about pitiful, he spent more time walking around the stage thinking he was the shit & yelling at people than singing that Godawful "Hell Yeah" song.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

It's cool to have your own opinion. You can like which ever version you like, but what I don't understand is when people don't agree with you, they're being snobby elitist and not objective.

Song with drum machines HAVE to sound dated sometime, because technology evolves (but I don't consider that "dated", I don't really know how to say it, but WDC is just perfect for me).
Comparing this to Parade makes no sense IMO, because that album was much more "live" than PR (except for maybe Mountains, and that sounds just as "dated" as WDC).

Umm PR was 'LIVE' it was not recorded in a studio, only WDC was not.



I know what you mean. I meant the sound of it, because I think that PR sound less "live" (because of the drum machine sounds).
