y does he get so much credit? how many albums?, singles, think i can think of only 3 songs!!



I know what you mean - I think Q Magazine ran a special about stars and their idols. There were really cool people like Andre 3000 talking about Sly influencing them and Lenny Kravitz talking about Marvin Gaye etc....the n tehy wheel out Daniel Bedingfield to say how much Prince influenced him....great, thats got to be teh worstthing Prince has ever done. Its kinda 50/50 woudl I rather Prince had never existed and Id never heard his albums or would I rather that Daniel Bedingfield had never been influenced.

lol Dont know wether to laugh or cry! Prince has a unique voice and i dont think anyone should attempt to cover his songs. I bet it will be nothing compares to you, and i hope it is is because it will show up their less than average voices! PRINCE TOUR IN THE UK....NOW...PLEEEEEASE GB

Seriously, Arms of Orion, as someone suggested, would be a good idea. That's not one of the better Prince songs and it's a good song for a couple of nobodys to butcher. It's not very Princely so it wouldn't be hard to cover. Of course nobody would recognize it or really want to cover it, but that's another matter. smile

Well, according to today's Sun they're actually doing "Addicted to Love", the old Robert Palmer song.

Alisha Keys, Gwen Stefani and Missy Elliot did a cover of Kiss at last year's awards. I thought it was a dreadful cover, their voices just didn't mix well and Missy just sang her own rap.




nod Could argue with you there. That cover was pants! disbelief

Well, it seems that the Bedingfields are going to be doing a medley.

It'll start with 'Solo', then launch into an uncensored 'Erotic City'. A brief line or two from 'Avalanche' will be followed by a full version of 'The Exodus Has Begun'. Then, the two of them will encore with a remix of 'North'.

It'll be da bomb!



Yeah. like any of the Bedingfields target audience will have heard of any of those songs.

One of those scandalous, completely full of lies UK gossip e-mails recently claimed (obviously falsely, these things are always full of complete crap and are never true except very occasionaly) that the pair had been spotted snogging in a dark corner of the backstage area of some award ceremony.


What shite!

Eeeooowww. They may be pretty low on the talent scale but there is no need to accuse them of incest... fucking UK papers.feeling ill

Makes me ashamed to be British, but proud to say I never read / believe the shite they print.

Thursday 10th Feb but, seriously, they are best avoided.

Only good year for these awards was the one where Jarvis Cocker rushed the stage during a Michael Jackson performance in which (surprise, surprise) he was dressed all in white and being "praised" by a host of small boys.

Well? The Brit Awards were last night... did the Beddingfields do a Prince cover or not?

I'd have watched it myself but I, errrr... didn't want to.
