When Doves Cry ...

[poegta]

a cover is a cover.there is no such law to make a cover illegal.FUCK THE INDUSTRY!

[edgarsalas]

It doesn´t seem they did justice to the song, anyway

[LincolnAStevens]

Hey yo I could not hear anything whats the problem ay?

[jm52207]

@BluejayMCclarnon actually prince did write dat song on his own and recorded it in one night by himself 

[purplehouse26]

Prince is the last real genius in the world now. and I love crazy geniuses like Prince : ) he can do whatever the fuck he wants , and I support him 100 percent. if people don't want to buy his music, then they are missing out.

[turgay1972]

fuck you prince , you are not the onley wone ............. i dont buy eny one of your fuckink cds ore lps

[jontaemann]

i dont blame prince write your own shit.

[aminollah]

prince your a douche

[112742Jimijoejimi]

@aminollah I don't think Prince would do this....I think it's the Greedy business assholes @ Warner Bros., because they're concerned in selling.

[BluejayMCclarnon]

well I just want to clarify that NO you dont have to pay any artist money to "cover" a song of another persons music. Who ever owns a song can decide if it can be used in certain ways but not covering a song... its USUALLY considered a Compliment .. to cover someone ... we love Prince were just sad that the powers that be are being like that... :(

[nickosgonewrong]

damn prince.. stingee mofo.

[iamboy1234]

Prince is an asshole and a hypocrite. He's always said that it was all about the music, love for music, etc. But he doesn't practice what he preaches. He's a greedy bastard and I invite everyone to boycott his music. I stopped buying his music in 2007. Everyone should do the same and teach him that this greedy behavior will only harm his career, not help it. I wish people would take a stand against this crap.

[Benegeserit33]

WTF is going on?

[patlk]

to all prince fans!

he is owned by W M G >:(

[kelza12300]

how can you tube do this man, ive lost my faith in them once more.

[blessedalcuin]

THIS IS ILLEGAL

No, it's not. He owns the rights to his songs. More likely that the people performing this song (and therefore making money doing it) never paid for the right to perform it. Who's "fcuking over" whom here?

[BluejayMCclarnon]

you dont know ANYTHING about the law if you truly believe this lol Have you ever heard of a COVER BAND ... what do you think they perform ... :) Have a nice day

[Montimas]

You still have to have permission to perform someone elses music on stage for money. Nobody really pays attention to cover bands, and the ones that do get attention, probably got consent from the artist.

[stonerh]

Yeah but TECHNICALLY... to perform a cover of someone's song in a public place, you need the permission of the composer and MAY need to pay royalties to PRS/MCPS

[SDCisLOVE]

@blessedalcuin actually unless they are selling the cover and making money off it without permissino they can sing it if they fucking want to, i work in the music industry i would know =)

[LIV3FORTHEFIGHT]

serouisly records labels if your not gonna put this shit up yourself dont mute it!

[mourningstar01]

i want to learn the intro........why cant i hear shit......this sucks, bites and blows!!!!!

[Doobie1Kenobi]

[Doobie1Kenobi]

This is a crock of mutha fuckin shit, YouTube is soon to be no more with crap like this, I'm seeing more and more everyday. it's a cover, I mean goddamn, give us a fuckin break. I agree, re post it. We're fuckin doomed anyway so have fun while you can

[dipsetking4]

[StapledNote]

How the fuck can you censor out a cover song..Whoever took the audio off doesn't have the right to, so fucking put it back on.

[JASSICSCLUB]

[Colshow]

Tell you what if prince or his record company has anythin to do with this he can go Fuck himself! Yer right by the way the world is being controled. Well world FUCK YOU!

[nevawrong]

then just type this in on youtube ----- "THE LOCKERS & CAPTAIN CRUNCH".

& youll see RE-RUN & his dance crew gettin busy to "WHEN DOVES CRY".

so FUCK YOU PRINCE !!, lol : )

[boxa888]

THIS IS ILLEGAL, HOW CAN YOU CENSOR A COVER SONG, ITS NOT EVEN THE SAME AS THE ORIGINAL. THIS IS SOO SOO ILLEGAL, THEY ARE BLOCKING FREEDOM OF SPEECH! I CANT WAIT TILL SOCIALISM HITS US FASTER THAN WE SEE IT COMMING. the future seems to suck right now, what the hell happened to the freedom we use to have, u cant censor a fucking cover song, how is this possible!

[lillylilic]

sooooooooo the great general pubic dosnt want to listen to the purple pain..........why fcuk over these guys!!!!!!!! oh u scarede there better n younger than u!

[han4492]

ooooooooohhhhhhh! so prince was withheld the right 4 his songs 2 b played on youtube?!?! i thought my audio had gone bust! lol. but i love prince :(

[larryousman]

Is the music his? Then as an artist he is free to do as he pleases with it including not having it played for free. Just to hear the song would have been nice though even if it could not have been downloaded. Come on Prince. You're looking really bad right now.

[fillhixx]

He used to be weird and wired. Now he's just out of touch....I thought I was old. He's ancient.

[dtg2099]

this internet is killing the music business!

if mother fucker cant get any money coz all the songs are available free on youtube why will an artist both to make tracks!

you can listen to my music intead!

prince is one of my biggest influences!

[weezerfan007]

ok seriuosly, this song is like 20 yrs old, a little passed it's prime. if prince is still banking on this one to pay the bills, he'd better get back to work. anyone who wanted this album has got to have payed for it by now.

[arturomonforte]

C´omoon PRINCEE! We are fans, we wanna listen to your music! damn! We also buy you records, I have almost all!

[vicodin75]

why is prince being a bitch about this?

[fable59]

because the bitch wants more money.

seriously, before i thought making music was for the soul, for the passion, for the entertainment. But Prince, well, he just turns it all around saying that money is everything by muting all of his music on the internet.

I just want to listen to this song and see if it's good, but NOOOOO, prince has to be a money whore and mute all his fucking songs. Fucking hell, Prince, you disappoint all who make music.

[microgyno]

omgg thiss is gettin me pissed off now cntt hear fuk all !! :@

[nicobloffer]

all of these song you cant hear shit wat the fuck

[rin3guy]

You can hear the audio for this if you go to the Rhapsody site!

[anooseholay]

Seriously, the best way to handle this is for a lot of people to upload versions of all his songs and videos so that if nothing else it overwhelms those that have the job of editing it. If I was an artist and I had a chance to get some young people on board to some of my shit that was 20 plus years old by now I would be like 'Fucking A, go for it!"

[midnightsexisthebest]

i cant believe that he is going through so much extremes so people cant watch his videos

[iamboy1234]

Funny how Prince is against the idea of covering his songs because they are perfect to his ears and shouldn't be changed and yet Prince constantly covers other artists. "I can't make you love me", "La la la la la means i love you", "Betchabygolly Wow", "Every day is a winding road" and the list of covers he recorded goes on and on... I guess it's OK when HE does it because he's Prince and he only improves songs, right? No wonder he got divorced twice. Imagine being married to this hypocrite.

[Brisks]

Prince is so greeedy.

[princeben7]

I see his people are still muting the videos; what a shame!!!

[c0llision0furki55]

would there be any way you could send this to me personally?

i love prince

and gch

and both together

mannnn i think id die with a smile on my faceeeee =]

[step4008]

I guess he is tired of all the gay remarks!

[tootsiechika]

U CAN'T HEAR SHHIT

[BluejayMCclarnon]
