1720 - When Doves Cry


No idea how this bird lost its head. I admit I find this image … disconcerting.

The Song of the Day is the Prince classic “When Doves Cry”. I have a version sung by Cassandra Wilson, but that does not seem to be on sale any more. While looking for it, I found the Song in a fantastic version by Patti Smith, only available on the compilation “Land (1975-2002)”, and because I have many songs on that album, I bought this song only. Hear it on YouTube.
