Lyrics:
But all I wanna know is baby
If what we had was good...
I keep your picture beside my bed (mmm)
And I still remember everything you said (mmm)
I always thought our love was so right I guess I was wrong
Always thought you'd be by my side papa now you're gone
(And I'm not tryin' hear that sh*t)
What I wanna know baby
If what we had was good
How come you don't call me anymore

Prince composed and arranged this . He sings with a falsetto voice so he must have known it was made for a woman.Years later Alicia asked to cover it . When Prince heard her version, he called her , and said the song now belongs to her , which is the biggest compliment he could pay her !!

I would like to give additional data to your comment. Prince didn't called Alicia, it was her to call Prince to ask for permission to sing his song because he didn't allow others to sing his songs. Prince told her that he had being watching her and was ok with her singing it. This story was told by Alicia at one of her concerts where she played the song after he died. The way she tells the story is very cute, you should google it.

Alicia is the artist that connected old school and modern music for me personally when I was in my late teens and just couldn't find current music that would reflect what I had always loved. And so here she is singing Prince's song. Perfect. Her original music does that too. Just the right blend of now and then.She's so talented, beautiful and just naturally radiant,vibrant, cool..I could keep going on with adjectives, but you get it, right? i named my girl after her!:)Loooove Alicia❤❤❤

always loved this song but, never knew Prince wrote it
Love, love, love Alicia Keys! She spans the generations like great performers such as Aretha Franklin, Diana Ross, Sade,etc. I could crank songs like "Call Me", You Don't Know NY Name", all day...... and I do. Amazing voice ans talent! By the way, I am 67 years old. 🙂
There just isn't anyone compared to Alicia's voice .. I will grow old listening to her music
She is a very special artist!
Alicia Keys was a baddie back in the day. She was ahead of her time
Prince didn't "rock this so hard", he actually sang it quite softly in a piano driven, falsetto vocal. All three artists performed the song well and I enjoy all of them regularly. Prince gets most of the credit since it is HIS song first and foremost. Stephanie Mills simply has the best vocal ability of the 3 singers in question and that comes through in her version of this song. As good and original as Prince and Keys are, neither of them could possibly out-sing Stephanie Mills.

Nobody covered this song better than she did. But it's hard as hell to find the original!
vocals on this. YES.
Alicia is just the classiest, sexiest female singer alive. She has carisma, style, panache, moxy and attitude. Without a doubt one of the greatest performers to in our midst. She brings a song home and makes you cry or stand up and shout.
I had no idea that Prince wrote this. Definitely one of my fav A Keys songs. RIP Purple one.

Beautiful song by Prince & wonderful interpretation by Alicia. No wonder he liked her so much. She uses pauses to create drama, just like he did. He once said the spaces btw the notes were the good part.

Prince wrote music for a plethora of other artists under pseudonyms, amongst which: Sheena Easton, Shiela E, The Time, Alicia Keys, Sinead O'Connor, Chaka Khan, Paula Abdul... and then some. I hope they will honor him for it at his funeral.
To this day I love this version more as opposed to the studio version. She does incredible doing it live too. Forever a Alicia Keys fan for life ever since she dropped her first album which was a true foundation coming up during my junior year in high school. She nevers disappoints me at all because she's a strong woman, artist, actress etc. Once saw her live that forever changed my life .
i just had goosebumps all over, this is an AMAZING song !
