Problem is it is not his own. A good cover must honor the original. This is a laughable failure. Prince did a funny, sad song about loss. Your boy sings it as a syrupy love ballad. Bloody embarrassing.
I actually like this version better than the original. Jordan Knight could have been as big as Justin Timberlake. His voice is incredible. His solo career just never took off for whatever reason.
This is a damn good cover! I remember the first time I heard it. I thought “THIS IS PRINCE’S TUNE!” JK did a great job of slowing it down. I may even like it better than Prince’s lol.
Mr. JK, takes an upbeat sad/happy song about loss and remakes it as a dopey love ballad. It is embarrassingly stupid. Knight is a no talent dweeb. Clear?
@@herbertrichard614 dude, im a die hard prince fan but you need to chill its literally not that serious. staking out in the comments to counter everyone for what?
Dam the nostalgia!!! 505am on October 3rd 2020 mtv used to raise me,!!! There is no way I should've been watching this and feeling the way I was at 12 13 yrs old 😫😩
[Verse 1] It was only last June when her old man ran away She couldn't stop crying cause she knew he was gone to stay 10:35 on a lonely Friday night She was standin' by the bar, hmm, she was lookin' alright, yeah [Pre-Chorus] I asked if she wanted to dance And she said all she wanted was a good man And wanted to know if I thought I was qualified, yeah [Chorus] I said, "Baby, don't waste your time I know what's on your mind I may be qualified for a one-night stand But I could never take the place of your man" [Verse 2] It hurt me so bad when she told me with tears in her eyes (Tears in her eyes) He was all she ever had and now she wanted to die He left her with a baby and another one on the way, yeah She couldn't stop cryin' 'cause she knew he was gone to stay, yeah [Pre-Chorus] She asked me if we could be friends And I said, "Oh, honey baby, that's a dead end You know and I know that we wouldn't be satisfied, no"

I've got a song for you J. Knight. U need to just give it to him in it's original form for FREE. I HOPE I MAKE THE CUT FOR HIS NEXT ALBUM OR FIRST CONCERT PERFORANCE. IF HE LIKES IT..IF NOT...ONE AH NKOTBS SOLO ARTISTS CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN. TY.
Glad you like this glacially slow, sentimental dishonorable cover. What a boring piece of shite. Has the singer gotten a real job yet? This is pure phony.
This song needs the edge and funk that Prince gives it. This romantic ballad treatment doesn't fit, since the message is exactly the opposite of that style. If you enjoy it, great. Not trying to start an argument. It's just how I perceive it, maybe because I always heard Prince's original.
heres the thing about music Jordan wasnt trying to be Prince.... He was being himself. So your point is invalid... Artists who do covers usually try and be different.
I'm 29 years old. I grew up with this version. If I didn't read in a comment from a previous video, I wouldn't know this was a cover and Prince was the original.
Axis of_Peter And he turned it around and made it into his sound. I actually this slow jam version better. Not taking anything away from Prince because he was the master. The genius.
One of my favourite songs...and probably the best of JK.
2024 and I’m still in love with this version. 🤙🏽
Its 2020 and i still love his version of this song as much as Prince's
Wonderful video ❤️🥰😍😘🫶
One of my favorite Prince covers. He made it his own.
Problem is it is not his own. A good cover must honor the original. This is a laughable failure. Prince did a funny, sad song about loss. Your boy sings it as a syrupy love ballad. Bloody embarrassing.
Geez , tell us how you really feel. I love it ! It’s my favorite version.
Jordan could have finessed all the Prince songs, and particularly Diamonds & Pearls
@@herbertrichard614 I disagree but you’re entitled to your opinion.
@@briandonald Are you telling me that the United States did not yesterday repeal the First Amendment? Thanks so much for that bulletin, chief.
Beautiful song ! Jordan voice is amazing ❤️😊😍🙏🫶
❤❤ I couldn't replace your Man.beautiful song 😢 SANG it beautifully sad to. ,Jordan Adh uk 🇬🇧 ni baby don't wSte y time.
I couldn't take this song
I have to admit...this is a good cover of a classic by Prince!
One of the best covers I've heard.
Truly? He slows a great song to nothing. What a boring business.
One of the best songs ever! I like this way better than prince’s.
He is still gorgeous ❤
Great song by Jordan Knight and his voice is amazing ❤❤❤
I actually like this version better than the original. Jordan Knight could have been as big as Justin Timberlake. His voice is incredible. His solo career just never took off for whatever reason.
Nice version...but the original IS better🤷🏿♂️
@@sunbeam231171 That's your opinion. I think Jordan's version is better too.
I'm a prince fan but i like Jordan's version better..has a slow tempo and it does sound much better
Jordan covering with this tempo, way better than original. Secons to none.
This is a damn good cover! I remember the first time I heard it. I thought “THIS IS PRINCE’S TUNE!” JK did a great job of slowing it down. I may even like it better than Prince’s lol.
Prince's original version was faster....I love this version better
Mr. JK, takes an upbeat sad/happy song about loss and remakes it as a dopey love ballad. It is embarrassingly stupid. Knight is a no talent dweeb. Clear?
@@herbertrichard614 dude, im a die hard prince fan but you need to chill its literally not that serious. staking out in the comments to counter everyone for what?
@@fvnaticbychoice Oh What a Feeling.
I wonder what Prince thought of it.
Wauw ❤ What a song❤
They don't make love songs like these anymore. 😕
So true
Amazing,didn't know all these years it's a cover 😅😍👌
This is an underrated song
Oh my goodness I love him I love prince I love this song I love this video I can’t get enough of this lol 😂 how hot is he
ever, 😎 love it...
Love this song eversince now pop up on my list in youtube the best ❤❤😊
2023 y sigo escuchando este cover de Prince, que debo decir me gusta muchísimo más 😊❤
I still love this song.. Jordan your so georgous
❤gorgeous
Best version ❤
We can listen Robin Thicke's voice loud and clear on the background vocals. A great musician. And this was a great featuring between then.
I never knew Robin Thicke was doing background vocals.
@@Afroricanz84 pretty sure he helped produce it as well.
Man, I never knew Robin did background vocals on this until now. I can hear him clearly.
Ong now that you said it
I thought that voice sounded familiar! That's awesome!
Great cover of the classic Prince tune!
It's 2021 and i'm still hearing this song ❤❤❤❤
Me 2 babes... me 2
Omg I love him so much 🥺🤍 why am I crying
I loved how he slowed it down #2021
I remember watching this video at my aunts house in Florida back in 1999. My first time visiting the US.
Dam the nostalgia!!! 505am on October 3rd 2020 mtv used to raise me,!!! There is no way I should've been watching this and feeling the way I was at 12 13 yrs old 😫😩
Same!!! This song had my young ass in my feelings
[Verse 1]
It was only last June when her old man ran away
She couldn't stop crying cause she knew he was gone to stay
10:35 on a lonely Friday night
She was standin' by the bar, hmm, she was lookin' alright, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
I asked if she wanted to dance
And she said all she wanted was a good man
And wanted to know if I thought I was qualified, yeah
[Chorus]
I said, "Baby, don't waste your time
I know what's on your mind
I may be qualified for a one-night stand
But I could never take the place of your man"
[Verse 2]
It hurt me so bad when she told me with tears in her eyes
(Tears in her eyes)
He was all she ever had and now she wanted to die
He left her with a baby and another one on the way, yeah
She couldn't stop cryin' 'cause she knew he was gone to stay, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
She asked me if we could be friends
And I said, "Oh, honey baby, that's a dead end
You know and I know that we wouldn't be satisfied, no"
I remember the making of the video. They wanted Ali Landry but she was filming on the 98 Degrees video.
I remember watching the making of this video on the rooftop scene.. when the camera hit jordan's arm while still rolling. Thank god he didnt fell.
Might have worked out great. No more truly horribly boring covers of a master artist.
NO MY LORD He is my first love
Dude it’s soooo not a boring cover- why are u even here if you don’t like his music... now beat it!
I love you Jordan Knight and love your music 🎶 🎵 ❤ 💜 ♥
1999 SIGH where’d you go. I never knew Prince was the original until four years ago. lol
same here lol
Lol
God I love him and this song
As a song I surely love it as a cover to fit the era. But princes version will always be superior.
90's baby❤
Used to turn this song down when I approached a red stop light. But with the trash that's on today on radio stations I play it with pride.
2024 im still in love with that song
Me da pena y ganas de llorar cuando escucho esta canción
It's 2022 and still relevant.
Beautiful song and video!!!
Jordan 🔥🔥🔥
Cuando hizo este disco, creo que estuvo en su mejor momento en cuanto a físico, pues se veía muy bien.
I love you Jordan Knight
Oh Jordan ❤️ 😍
Iconic
2022 and all of a sudden I was thinking about this song
love this song this is what a real man dose when the woman has a man
Yes n sexy
Go back to the kitchen, woman
Finally i found my memories song
A Prince Cover Dope
0:17 Start
What a stud
MTV’s Making the Video of this was great! Glad they didn’t knock him over and such a good remake. Who is this woman?? She looked good
I totally remember watching that to. Late 90’s and 2000’s were the best.
10.35pm on the lonely friday night.
So, I am been here for you.
And this should have been a NKOTB cover but still amazing
I will always love the one with prince but it s a nice version if u had the permission to sing it prince like u
Waktu jaman saya menonton video klip ini saya belum mengerti seperti apa wanita membangkitkan gairah para pria
I see ya Jordan
I didn’t know this was a Prince original.
Today 18/07/20 will be 21 years.... gasp....
I could never take the place of your man...
Yeah, you could. What man? I forgot all about that clown 🤡🤣
Lyrics :
Only last June when her old man ran away
She couldn't stop crying cause she knew he was gone to stay (oh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
10:35 On a lonely Friday night
She was standing by the fire and ooh she was looking alright, yeah
I asked her if she wanted to dance
And she said that
All she wanted was a good man and wanted to know
If I thought I was qualified eh yeah
And I said baby don't waste your time
I know what's on your mind baby
I may be qualified for a one night stand
But I could never take the place of your man
Oh-oh, the place of your man, ooh-oh
It hurt me so bad when she told me with tears in her eyes (tears in her eyes)
He was all she ever had and now she wanted to die
He left her with a baby and another one on the way, oh-oh
She couldn't stop crying cause she knew he was gone to stay
She asked me if we could be friends
And I said oh honey baby that's a dead end
You know and I know
That we wouldn't be satisfied eh yeah
And I said baby don't waste your time
I know what's on your mind baby
Wouldn't be satisfied with a one night stand
And I could never take the place of your man
Oh yeah baby, baby, the place of your man
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Baby don't waste your time
I know what's on your mind
Baby don't waste your time
I know what's on your mind
Nice. It's HARD to follow PRINCE
You. Van. Never be. To. Catefull. Now. Days
2020 ❤
I actually prefer his version
I bet his vocal cord didn't change when he hits puberty age. So soft
2021?

Please and you're welcome? Let me know if they give it back. By...thanksgiving 2022.
2/13/ 22.... 2022!!!!!!!
The roof scenes gave me vertigo
Honestly have to play this at 1.5 times the speed to get the right vibe
haha yes, then its closer to the original song :P
❤️
Recycling from Prince song...thats why seems i heard this song before
This is the 1st version i've ever heard, so strangely enough the Prince original sounds a bit...off to me
Glad you like this glacially slow, sentimental dishonorable cover. What a boring piece of shite. Has the singer gotten a real job yet? This is pure phony.
Cover by Prince
😍😍😍
😘🤩❤
Is this an official music video of the song?
Yes
Nicolas Moyano oh. Ok. Well I didn’t think it was because it wasn’t even uploaded officially by Jordan Knight VEVO.
@@brendancarmichael5597 it"s kinda old. From 1999.
Nicolas Moyano what I’m trying to say is that he should’ve released this video sometime in October 2009.
Yep
Na brother no one such ever cover Prince.
Of course, you couldn't step up bro lol. Her man sucked but kudos for honesty.
🏠🚆
he got the lyrics wrong??
This song needs the edge and funk that Prince gives it. This romantic ballad treatment doesn't fit, since the message is exactly the opposite of that style. If you enjoy it, great. Not trying to start an argument. It's just how I perceive it, maybe because I always heard Prince's original.
heres the thing about music Jordan wasnt trying to be Prince.... He was being himself. So your point is invalid... Artists who do covers usually try and be different.
Good song
I'm 29 years old. I grew up with this version. If I didn't read in a comment from a previous video, I wouldn't know this was a cover and Prince was the original.

Correct. What a boring sentimental piece of claptrap. Dishonorable, chump.
Oh hell no. Butchered....
