I'm not a big fan of any cover versions but if I had to pick on it would be I Can't Make You Love Me. He ruins such a nice song when he mumbles something about wanting sexual relations.

I love Prince's falsetto and one of my favourite songs for this is La La means I Love You.

Sorcha

For me the worst was Betcha by golly wow!...its probably because I cant hear that track without seeing the video in my mind. It was toe curlingly embarrassing.

Do they have to be studio albums?

I love the Purple House cover myself...Plus, all the other live Hendrix songs.

Whole Lotta Love is tight as hell also.

I don´t like any of the covertunes Prince has
released on album but 1 is magical tho´& it´s that
1983 First Avenue version of Joni Mitchell´s
A Case of U.I just wish it was longer,
including the first verse & with perfect soundquality.

Winding Road, hands down, period, The End.

Yeah man thats the only one I dislike. Normally its other artists doing shit versions of Prince songs though so I guess hes gotta get his own back

Okay ... it's his own shit but
nothing compares 2 u
feels like the baddest cover ever.
Man .. that's a drag live, especially when Rosie is involved.
Can't believe that Prince fucked it up himself

How I wish miss O'Conner left that one alone, so Prince would have left it alone too!

by the way, The Family's version is Okay

Muffy

I don't think Prince has any Worst Cover Songs. Prince sings in his Style and I think it works Really well. Emancipation was a Great album and I truly Love the way Prince reworked Betcha By Golly and the Video is Sooo Beautiful. I think God was Really Cool also. I enjoyed hearing Prince do Cover songs at his Shows.
