Nothing Compares Duet With Beyonce

I have it from a decent source that Miss Knowles and Mr. Nelson are to record the man's uptodate version of Nothing Compares 2 U. As much as it goes against all I stand for as a Prince fan and I just love Rosie, it probably would be a good idea in terms of tour promotion in the US and Europe. It would almost certainly hit the top spot around the world. Morons might think it is a cover - there are always a few. His version has a completely different meaning and slant than Sinnead's so it would still seem fresh to the public.

What are your opinions on this news?

My source has been reliable in the past, but I can't gaurantee anything.

I think it would be a great idea, commercially.

I think it would suck neutral Beyonce's voice would drown Prince's superior but quiter voice

i would very much prefer to see them do a NEW SONG!!!! i think they would sound great together!!!!! NC2U is a BEAUTIFUL song, yes! but he's capable of writing a great new song for them to duet on . . . Beyonce's last album had sooooo much Princey sounds on it - i kept thinking about Purple Rain . . . it would be a great collab, the two of them!! i just hope they don't do NC2U - although it would have to be better than Rosie's version - ugh and ick to her doing it . . .

That would be a nice combination. clapping They sounded great singing "Purple Rain" together, so I'm sure this song would be no exception. thumbs up!

I love it. It's my favourite Prince duet.
Life it ain't real funky unless you got that orgPop.

I'd really have 2 hear that before making a judgment call. Me thinks it could be good or bad, depending upon the arrangment of the music.

Already knowing there's power

The kind of power to make liars of men
The kind of power that can make a saint...sin
The kind of power that can make a foe...a friend.
