prince/beautiful ones/mariah what did prince think of mariah's cover of "beautiful ones"
If they cut dru hill out it may have been a decent cover, IMO. Let the rain come down...17 days.... | |

Please, please, please be kidding. This cover made me violently ill. I broke out in a rash and projectile-vomited uncontrollably. It is sacrilege of the worst kind. "The Beautiful Ones" should never be touched in my opinion, and Mariah and Sisqo the FemmeDragon pissed all over it. Thanks for reminding me of it. You just made me cry. The Normal Whores Club | |

I liked it when I first heard it but when I heard the original again(which I had not heard in a few years at the time), I changed my tune immediately. 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 | |

I agree, if it had just been Mariah it actually would've been a good cover, that damn Sisho messed everything up
I think Prince said something to the effect of it was nice but not meant to sung as a duet (maybe his polite way of saying dru hill sucked?) [This message was edited Thu Dec 11 22:11:54 PST 2003 by lovebizzare] ~KiKi | |

I like this cover, though it does get tiresome | |

It was aweful!
They need Mariah & a full music group to "try" to hit Prince's vocal range! But.. couldn't. Mariah's voice is gone.. she does that (((harmonizing mumble))) on EVERYTHING now to hide that she can't really sing anymore! The pacing was off.. her voice cracks in the first few lines. The whole vibe is terrible! It is like a Cheese Grater on my balls! | |

The only cover I would like see relating to Mariah is a 6ft covering of dirt with her under it after being served the death penalty for murder!
Now that would be a beautiful one! In the distance a light shines and I know it is mine. Someday I will touch it because it calls me. It says cross the line, cross the line. I know everything is not always what it seems, so I pinch myself daily just in case it's a dream | |

Just so you don't have to take all the flak on your own stymie. I did too. It ain't that bad. Like you said nothing can be as good as Prince's original but it does not suck IMHO. Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad. | |

[This message was edited Thu Dec 11 22:11:54 PST 2003 by lovebizzare] Thats correct,,,I still remember that radio interview he did back in 98, he was all political and shit: "I'm honored to hear such artist like Mariah Carey cover one of my songs. I'm not that easy to please when it comes to folks covering my effort but I could'nt get mad at her move, after all this is a tribute and its a sign of flattery. However, I personaly believe this song came from a one-person prespective and it would've been more conviencing to the ears if it was a solo pre4mance rather than a duet. But overall, Mariah killed it". I personaly love the song but like everybody feels,,,Sisqo is in the wrooong place. [This message was edited Fri Dec 12 10:31:11 PST 2003 by Harlepolis] | |
