I was at a girls house last week. I was looking through her cd collection (pityfull). I saw a mariah carey cd with the 'beautiful ones' cover on it. As i had never heard this version before i listened to it. TERRIBLE. i continued to listen and sing along with the track. the girl comes into the the room and says "How do u know this song? its my favourite and u dont like mariah". so i told her that it was a cover and that it hasnt got shit on the origional. Later that day i burned her a copy of it onto cd and gave it as a present. i told her to listen closely to the dramatic ending.

She wasnt impressed.

How can someone prefer sisqo's passionless warblings over princes screams of pure tourment?

fucked up ho'


some people just don't know greatness when they hear or see it like most of us here on the org.

Oh God in London last year he was rolling round on the floor screeching his guts out. It was the undisputed highlight of an awesome performance. I don't know how he does it.


Damn, I would love to have seen that! biggrin
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.

Love this song to bits - When he did it live in Manchester last year it was awesome - To such an extent he dropped the mic and ended up rolling on the stage - He covered up the fact he dropped it so well by rolling around doubt if many noticed it!

In my view this is what I love about prince and emotional rollercoaster of a song.

Loving it - Loving it - Loving it


YEP, I SAW IT! it was the second show at the appolo. he just dived after that mic when he realised what happened.

i had an argument once with someone here who claimed that he didnt drop it.
You do as I say
