Yes- "A Case of U" is a Joni Mitchell original- covered by Prince. Socks still got butt like a leather seat... | |

Yes- "A Case of U" is a Joni Mitchell original- covered by Prince. Yeah, it was originally composed by Joni Mitchell... It is credited to her in the ONA CD liner notes as such, with an original 1972 copyright. | |

The song is from one of Joni's most intense and most personal albums entitled Blue. | |

And go by the original because Prince took out the two best verses. | |

Yes, it is a cover. But the two versions have absolutely nothing in common. The treatment that Prince gives the song almost makes it a new song. And I'm not saying one version is better than the other, but it's very clear to me that Joni's vision of the song has nothing to do with what Prince displays in his cover version. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
