Great choices add "Black Sweat" to that list, and it is Prince's most "MJ-ish" sounding songs. cool

I would tell him hell to the no, leave Prince's music alone. Nobody can sing Prince's songs as well as he can. My twocents
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.

I really don't see Michael pulling off the more suggestive songs in Prince's catalogue.

well musically and vocally, I can see him singing little red corvette. And if he could sing lyrics like the kind he did for in the closet, she drives me wild and superfly sister, he can pull it off for little red corvette

Yeah, but can you really see MJ pulling of a line like "girl got the prettiest ___ I ever seen/and the ride is so smooth/u must be a limousine"? Come on, even at the height of his popularity, Michael was considered too squeaky-clean to pull that off. Those songs you mentioned, IMHO, are a tad tamer than most of Prince's more suggestive material.

Just the very thought of Michael trying to cover Prince (key word: trying) makes me want to regurgitate.
Remember when u told me that love was touching souls?
Well, surely u touched mine. O{+>

Thank you. We can deal in semantics all we wish but it doesn't change the reason why MJ might not be able to pull off some of Prince's work. I didn't say EVERYTHING, I said some things.

You can hate the man for all you want, but with killer vocals like his...it would sound amazing.

Hi Rodney,
I don't hate Michael at all. I just don't see him covering any of Prince's work.
Remember when u told me that love was touching souls?
Well, surely u touched mine. O{+>

You don't seriously believe that Michael could get away with singing a line such as "she had a pocketful of horses/Trojan and some of them used"? lol

You have a point there. Those lines being sung by Michael would not have the same effect. lol

I'd like to hear MJ sing 'Fascination' just to hear him sing, 'So called king gives birth to so-called ... Prince!' lol
