This song is so close to the core concepts of rock n' roll that it could easily be a Chuck Berry or Buddy Holly song. Everything he did was so effortless.
This Album was sooo critical ,based mostly around demos tracks it revealed a true vulnerability in Princes falsetto . It to this day is one of the most important transcendent albums in music history .
Like all of the covers that he created, the album versions are so refined and smooth. Even though you can how raw this performance was in comparison to say his performances in the 90’s - 00’s, this live version hits different in a great way. That’s the thing about his live performances, he would always deliver the music or the melody of his voice will in a unique way that would surprise you and make you think “Oh, I never thought that line could work like that!” There are only a few musical geniuses and Prince is undeniably on that list.
lol! I’m right there w ya! I love both versions. They create different emotions. Prince makes me contemplative, sad, but I still want to bop around. Cyndi makes me want to weep and it pierces my soul. Both amazing.
Prince fans should be PLEASED that Cyndi brought this song to light for me. ❤ And, besides, they were good friends and I’m sure Prince wasn’t rolling his eyes. 😂 He wanted her to sing this!

Almost british punk, i would say..
The replacements…kiss me on the butt
My only quibble is describing his work as "effortless"; dude worked his ass off.
@@briangray4640 we'd maybe say effortless because understanding music just seemed to come naturally to him.
2023 still no one holds a candle to "His Royal Badness"!!!!! ,💜💜💜💜 from Mississippi!!
Greatest musician of my lifetime!!! RIP Purple King/Prince!!!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
