What was Prince's Best Remake?

he didn't do a lot of these, but my vote is:

"I Can't Make You Love Me"


i'm sure everyone agrees with me! wink

Do you mean recorded or live? My best remake is his Red House, Purple House. I love that song.

I love When Will We B Paid. Haven't actually heard the original, but Prince's version sounds fine to my ears!
Life it ain't real funky unless you got that orgPop.

Me too, until just now! Looks like it's on this Staple Singers album. Now I gotta hear that. Always loved them.

One Of Us.

Dr. Evil's rendition of said song, found in "Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me", runs circles around Joan Osborne's as well...

"Honky Tonk Woman" from The Undertaker...and come to think of it, I still freak out listening to that live version of "Miss You" from the Parade tour w/ Ron Wood and Sting...

The live version of "Just My Imagination"...there are two different versions. The one where he threw down the guitar gauntlet.

YES!!!!! I didn't think of that at all when I replied earlier.

So now I say --

JMI -- Live
Case of U -- Studio
