"If I Was Prince" cover CD--anybody buy it?

I saw this in For Your Extra $10 (FYE) and heard the snippets available...some were pretty good and some were awful. Is it worth $13.99?
you look better on your facebook page than you do in person hmph!

No - find it used.

The Peaches song is good, but most of it is drek. If you're going to pay full price for a Prince covers album, get "The Skinny MF With The High Voice" by DUMP - it's a lo fi folk-rock band led by a guy from Yo La Tengo, and he does an album full of Prince covers that's actually entertaining.

ABSOLUTELY NOT!...THE COVER OF "ALPHABET STREET" SOUNDS LIKE A JAMES BOND THEME THAT DIDN'T MAKE IT..AND,DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON "UNDER THE CHERRY MOON"...THIS SONG WENT FROM A BALLAD TO A BATTLE DIRGE.(SOVIET FUNK ANYONE?)


ALL IN ALL TO ME..... omfg ill wall hah! no no no!
