It used to be free on the website in very shitty quality. Wasn't a very good cover but I heard him cover it live and he OWNED it.

I seen him play it at Paisley Park and I think he played it once during the NPS tour (but I'm not certain).

Once upon a time, there was a website called love4oneanother.com that had a little section called "Jelly"... at least I think it was at the L4OA site, maybe it was in the second coming, called npgonlineLTD.com... anyways that's where U'r Still The One and Madrid 2 Chicago first surfaced.

That was the original "official" site that gobbled up almost evry other site out there.... was a mess. The site became npgonlineLTD.com I think it was and then now this club.

Those of us who've been around WAYYYY to long remember most of the incarnations that came before the site we have now... wasn't pretty was it folks?eek

Back to your original question though, U'r Still The One was at about 64kbs quality and at times almost sounded like it was monotone. Does anybody remember the News posted at the time the Jelly page opened? Something to the effect that a Paisley worker overheard that song under the door with Marva inside, then it mentioned it was a great Shania song that just needed to be "turned up".

I have a copy of it sitting on my hardrive at home somewhere.....

awww, i thought the love4oneanother site had some charm to it. it was a little on the clunky side back then, sure, but i don't seem to remember things pissing me off as much then as in the following incarnations. the "xperiments", the charity stuff, the cassettes of "the war" in exchange for donations (was that how it went?)...not to mention the news was far more well-maintained and when they went into "mr. mysterious" mode, it was at least interesting and fun still.

The recording u have heard that's circulating P2P sites etc is from an aftershow in Kaufleuten, Zurich, Switzerland on 24th August 1998.

The duet was performed with Marva King, but Prince cut it short, hence why the file ends so suddenly.

I think he did it at an aftershow in either florida or san francisco in 1998, with Marva King. Recording is pretty bad.
