Prince had never recorded the song for himself and took no interest in performing it in concerts, however, in the years after O'Connor turned it into a #1 hit in 1990, he began performing the song live. He performed duets with Rosie Gaines in concert and subsequently had a live performance released in 1993. I’m a huge Prince fan. But her version is gut wrenching.

I don't think this can be classed as a cover. This version is the first time it was released on single (a version of it was previously an album track of the Family, written by Prince, but the Family's album track was not in the same league as this version). Prince released his own 'live' version of it 3 years later, but with a guest vocalist. The studio version was not released at that time. It was not until 2018 that the version featuring Prince as the vocalist was released as a single.

Sinead's is the second version of this song (and the best version.). The first version was "The Family." Like Heart's "Alone" is the second version and the best version (the first version was done by daytime soap stars --John Stamos was one of them.)

Sinead- amazing talent, outspoken, and absolutely stunning❤️ Abused by her mother, the catholic church- a strong voice years before it was aknowledged to be true. She has suffered for it, and it is incredibly sad to see how it has ruined her life in later years....I will always love her❤️

Prince wrote this song for her///Prince recorded many years later....There was this new show on TV called Mtv. I was in my early 20s...Prince was working his movie Purple Rain at the time...so he gave the song to her to record.I like his version too I mean come on its Prince!!!! By the way anther guy by the name of Chris Cornell did a cover also. I like the reaction, thought you did a good job!!!
