Ginuwine has an OK voice and for what he was doing at the time, he was fine. He never did anything I was excited about so I mostly just ignored him on the radio. But I picked up this disc without having heard the track before. I assumed it would be a standard cover... it's anything but. Back in those days, you couldn't sample tracks the way you can now. If I'd heard it, I might not have bought it. I think the music is weak all around. It's a slow tempo version. They've obviously tried to transform the song into a sexy ballad. Instead, they turn it into a drudgery. The song practically yawns at you. There's none of the energy, the intensity of the original track. It meanders on and eventually fades out. It's absolute dulls-ville. The disc features two other tracks. I'm not sure if they're from an album or b-sides and to be honest with you, I don't really care. Neither one of them are interesting in my opinion.
All around, I was extremely disappointed with this single. I regret purchasing it. Even more than that, I regret Ginuwine covered such an amazing Prince song and ruined it like he did. My final words: MONEY FLUSHED DOWN THE TOILET. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME.
