Technically, Sinead's version is also a cover (although it is by far the most famous). Prince wrote and composed the song in 1984. Wiki re: the song's history: Prince released his own rendition of "Nothing Compares 2 U", with Rosie Gaines on guest vocals. This live version of the song was included on his 1993 compilation album, The Hits/The B-Sides. His version reached #62 on the R&B chart in early 1994.[8] Prince's original 1984 recording of the song was not released until 2018, when it was issued as a single by Warner Bros. Records in conjunction with his estate.[9] In addition, the Prince version was given its own music video, released in conjunction with the studio recording on April 19, 2018; the video consists of edited rehearsal footage shot in the summer of 1984. - That being said, this is a beautiful cover.
This is actually a session version. It appears on a compilation called Listen Again, the third tie-in compilation album with Radio 1's long defunct Blue Room show. I actually prefer the first two albums, The Blue Room and Blue Balearic, but all three are full of musical gems.

The sound of Scotland is beautiful.
Nothing compared to King Creosotes voice. Seriously. ❤
Best version of this song imo
It is possible to watch the wonderful film From Scotland with Love on various places... and to watch makes such sense of Kenny's soundtrack
Just been offered a ticket to see Kenny at Findhorn next month..... I think I'll accept it! Love this music
Breaks my heart hearing him sing this version
A re-elevation of a cover of a cover....simply brilliant and just a revelation. Taking songs to a new level, just KA class!
nailed it , just nailed it well done ma man x peace
Love this ♥️
Phenomenal rendition.
Obrigado Manuel Cabral. Thanks King and Prince

Jimmy Scott's version is also awesome. This is beautiful
