Robyn covers "Jack U off"

As a B-side 2 her new single "be mine"
,swedish singer Robyn chooses 2 cover Prince.
"Jack U off" with just piano & vocals.
I guess it's the first time somebody covers this tune right?

One of those "big in Europe" acts. I remember seeing a strange video from a song for her second album when I was in Italy. She has released two albums since the first. I remember that song (I think it was called "Electirc") being kind of an eletronic pop track (like "Ray Of Light" but more pop) but it was years ago. I'm not sure what her music is like now but I remember the cover from her last album
made it look like she aged really badly or was in an accident. Take a look.

Her 1999 album:




Her 2003 album:


That was some four years or just a terrible photographer

The pic is so small, I can't exactly tell what is going on in that photo. The mods may cut it anyway.

She's not popular anymore? How did this last album do...where people scared off by the cover!

I read that she kinda lost control of the way her last album turned
out.2 many people beeing involved.Typical big-lable stuff.
They're trying 2 get it 2 fit as wide market as possible.
This time she decided 2 do it all by herself & release her new album
under her own lable.

Isn't that always the way. What did her last album (the one with the great cover) sound like?

And I guess that picture was as bad as I thought since it's been cut out....Gross! But frankly, I would edit out that Robyn pic too...
