Certainly the London-based group are not the first to cover this song. Indeed, this past year we’ve featured amazing versions by the likes of Parra For Cuva and Widowspeak, each within their own right absolutely amazing renditions.

Wow! I like this version better than the original by Tracey Chapman.
I don't listen to Kelly Clarkson, but if she sang like thuis instead of the really poppy stuff she's been doing, I'd give it a listen for sure.

The video for this song has been very hard to find for years because Prince supposedly had Youtube block it but a couple years ago, it's back up. I actually like Age Of Chance's version better'n Prince's:
