OldskoolPrinceFan must have attended an inept skool as well. How can you make a mockery of Prince when you just earned Prince even more white euro fans and respect as an artist? Sinead's version was right on for her genre. The versions are different experiences, and frankly Sinead's version was better produced. The Family's and R&P's version came across as forced soul, in my opinion. It's a great song that should speak for itself, and Sinead let it do just that. And why madamehollywood thinks Sinead's is without passion is rooted in prejudice. This is coming from a fan of Prince who has every album Prince has recorded from "For You" to the 'black album' to 'musicology'. I also have most of Sinead's albums. This is not my favorite Sinead song, as she actually does a better cover version of Elton John's 'sacrifice' which is even more haunting than this.
