Legend ? There’s only one REAL Prince Of Pop! ???
Nooooo this is why being celebrities is bad bcuz they killed him and now they about to make money off him. Prince probably didn’t want that to be released.
Looking forward to this, it’ll be great to listen to Prince’s version of these. They should have added Prince’s live version of “Cool” originally recorded by The Time, but otherwise the list looks great.
