The original version of that song, with Lenny Kravitz and Cree Summer is a million times better, trust me...it's on Cree Summer's album, produced by Lenny. Once you hear the original version, you'll see that Van Hunt's version is way inferior, that's not a diss, I like Van Hunt, but Lenny's version is way better.

Will do that Emilio! biggrin

I didn't know that this was a cover. I have Cree's album in my HD a long time (an orger sent me it)...but I still haven't listened to it

Actually, I think I prefer the cover. It's a great song either way. music

Both versions are so different...but I have to say I disagree. I think there's a bit more feeling in the VH/NC version.

I love this version. I like VH but I find his cover with Nikka rather bland.
Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off

I'll have to try to hear the original again. I had it, then got rid of it, then got it again, then I'm pretty sure I sold that shit again confused

I think I wanted to like it @ the time b/c of Lenny's involvement but I just couldn't get w/ it. I'd probably like it now shrug
heart prince I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it prince heart
