I hate to say it, but I think Maxwell put a definitive stamp on the song.
Besides, I can't imagine Prince doing a cover of a song (any song) behind Maxwell. Not because he can't, but because it would be like "teacher trying to impress student" -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I love maxwell's version simply because it had better production - nothing against the original but it's kinda like seeing the exorcist now opposed to when you were little it just doesn't have the same effect. 
As for a Prince version - I don't think it would fit him he's not a remake type - Other people remake HIS stuff- to me it would just be too weird. | |

No disrespect to Kate but Maxwell owns this now. Just like Jimi owned Watchtower "Climb in my fur." | |

Right. [This message was edited Wed Oct 15 11:44:08 PDT 2003 by Jestyr] Umm, actually, yeah. I prefer Sinead's version..much more emotion. Just as I prefer Chaka's version of "I Feel For You" :p | |

God. Just because it has more instruments and is louder - that makes it better? I can't think of a more emotionless performance in the history of pop music than Nothing Compares 2 U by Sinead O'Conner. Why do overseas folks confuse bland delivery and fake tears with emotion?
The same thing applies to bands like New Order. | |

Oh lol...but remember I said even Kates version has me swingin...Maxwell did a faithful take on it with hardly any changes...in range as well..only th epticxh is a major difference... both versions make me emotional..but Maxwell "worked" it I guess "Climb in my fur." | |

Everytime I hear the Maxwell version, I think about the 150+ miles from Pensecola, Florida to Tallahassee...We must have played that song over 50 times on that trip, that's why it won't play now. I love me some Maxwell; but "Fortunate" is still my favorite Maxwell song. I still can't believe that R. Kelly wrote and produced it.  SPREAD LOVE UNTIL THE SUN'S FINAL RISE--The Duality a.k.a.

I thought it was great for Maxwell to cover it he sang the hell out of it...but I do prefer Kates because I heard her version first and, well, Kate Bush is a goddess. Lucky me I can enjoy both  | |
