As a rule I do not post videos that are restricted in any way and must be viewed on another site. So ordinarily I would have just tossed this cover. But it is too brilliant, too spectacular, too awe-inspiring, just too, too, too … Take the journey over to YouTube and queue up the version posted by Tenkanen, then sit back and bask in its extravagance! Trust me, you will thank me later!!!

Oh the disharmony! Much like Harlan County there are no neutrals here. It is your solemn responsibility to decide which cover song prevails. In other words … Which Side Are You On!??!

While most would certainly associate this song with The Bangles, Prince actually wrote it and was the first to record it March 1983. However, Prince did not release his version until more than 10 years later. The Bangles, meanwhile, released their megahit in 1985.
