Other great prince covers:
Apparently in the late 80's Elvis Costello was covering Sign'O'The Times
in live concerts.
Nothing Compares 2 U was Sinead meets Prince.
The Future (originally from the Batman soundtrack) there's a David Byrne
cover of.
As to Tom Jones, his cover of Burning Down the House (by one of my fave
groups, Talking Heads) is both appalling and oddly interesting.
