DIRTY MIND (by BENT) & I WOULD DIE 4 U (by Space Cowboy)

I got a CD free with a magazine last year and it includes 2 cover versions of PRINCE classics.

DIRTY MIND - by BENT
&
I WOULD DIE 4 U - by SPACE COWBOY

The Dirty Mind cover is great.

Has anyone else heard these?

If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

I have the 12" of the Space Cowboy mix, picked it up at a market for $2. I really like it! Reworks the song quite well for the modern era, as well as demonstrating the greatness of the original.

I have the mag and the freebie C.D ,it aint that bad really ,I would die for u is pretty similar to the original ,kinda pointless but it not that bad,actually heard the space cowboy version on tv 2night, Dirty Mind is a little more interesting , very slow.Like the look of the mag in general nice mid 90s cover.

'The Space Cowboy' is actually a guy called 'Nick Dresti', and NOT Norman Cook. Norman Cook is indeed a twat, but get yer facts right, lest you become one.

ok weve agreed fatboys a twat, but he was behind the negotiation of who,s voice was to end up on the track i.e not prince,s, working on behalf of english dance label "southern fried records". ..thats what i couldnt be arsed typing out the first time. or this time for that matter.

any one got alife i can rent!

fatboy slim did the remix of when doves cry

i havent hear anything about him being involved with space cowboy, but who knows.

the space cowboy version was cute for a cheap thrill but its a very sugar coated club kid rendition of the song...
