    Kate actually wrote the song, and then Prince added his bits to it. It took two years on and off to get the right balance . A really cool collaboration

    The lyrics are all Kate's. Prince: keyboards, guitar, bass guitar, vocals and co-arranger. "Del Palmer, Kate’s former partner and longtime engineer and bass player, spoke about the track to Future Music in 1993: “This one actually was recorded in collaboration with Prince - Kate went to see him at a gig and was flattered to be asked to meet him after the show, when they discussed a collaboration. Unable to physically get together in the same room, they swapped multi-track tapes, with a slave reel returning from Prince’s Paisley Park studio covered in vocals, guitar solos and keyboards. The problem then was to put the track back together into something resembling its original form while retaining the best of what Prince had done. He hadn’t added one of the vocal parts which would have been particularly good for him, so it basically took two years to put it back together. What’s left is his lead guitar, some digital synths and some chorus vocals. Then Lenny Henry came in to do a vocal on the end - he’s really got a great voice and ought to be doing a serious record of his own.“

      My goodness, I'd forgotten all about Judie Tzuke! "Stay with me 'till dawn" came out when I was still grieving the loss of my first love, and this song was like a punch in the guts then. I'm glad to say I'm well over that now (I'm 61) but what a memory!

    When she sings, "Of all the people in the world, why should I love you?", She's singing about Jesus. She's not questioning her love for Him, she's celebrating Him in worship. The finer purple and purest gold are the Father, the red of the Sacred Heart is Jesus, and the grey of the ghost is obviously the Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit, whichever you're used to.
    Have you ever seen a picture
    Of Jesus laughing?
    Mmm, do you think
    He had a beautiful smile?
    A smile that healed
    Of all the people in the world
    Why should I love you?
    There's just something 'bout you
    There's just something 'bout you
    Of all the people in the world
    Why should I love you?
    Of all the people in the world
    The finer purple
    The purest gold
    The red of the sacred heart
    The grey of the ghost
    The "L" of the lips are open
    To the "O" of the host
    The "V" of the velvet
    The "E" of my eye
    The eye in wonder
    The eye that sees
    The "I" that loves you
    Something that most people don't realise about this rendition is that the later verse wasn't sung by Prince, but by UK comedian Lenny Henry. Lenny is very popular in the UK but is mostly known for his comedy roles, so I was very surprised to discover that he has a very soulful voice. I've heard several versions of this amazing song, and although this one is by far my favourite, I do love the others, too. I really appreciate you guys reacting to this one.

    Kate's original demo sent to Prince captures the essence of her message so much better than the somewhat-overproduced final Prince-collab version:

    It’s a great song but I think the Jury is out on Prince’s contribution. He can’t even get the lyrics to the chorus right!

    I've never liked this piece which bears too much of Prince's imprint and which I don't find very inspired either! Not that I don't like Prince (far from it) but at that time he and Kate were no longer at the top of their inspiration in my humble opinion.
