This is the maximum version of the first (and only I believe) single from the "RAVE un2 the JOY fantastic" (1999) album by The Artist Formerly Known As Prince (The Symbol).

The versions of "The Greatest Romance Ever Sold" are as follow:

1. radio edit featuring eve 4:32
2. neptunes remix edit featuring q-tip 3:42
3. adam & eve remix featuring eve 4:30
4. album version 5:29
5. jason nevins remix edit 3:36
6. neptunes extended remix featuring q-tip 5:08
7. jason nevins extended remix 6:41
8. original radio edit 4:26

1999 NPG Records, Inc.

All versions are excellent, especially the ones by Neptune (rap-pop) and Jason Nevin (pop-disco).

Worth buying - not only by collectors.

So after releasing a string of horrible albums, The Artist Formerly Known As Prince has given us something decent to listen to again. "The Greatest Romance Ever Sold" is a harmless little number that's never going to stick out in anyone's mind as the greatest "Prince" song ever, but it's a good one nonetheless. Most of the remixes on here are of a rap or R&B influence, hence guest stars such as Eve and Q-Tip, and you also get a disco-influenced remix done here by Jason Nevins (remixes for Janet Jackson, The B-52's and Run-DMC), which is my personal favorite. Upon first listen, I was not too impressed, but listen to this one a couple of times and you'll be hooked.

Fell in love with this song the first time i heard it, I can't stop playing it. The lyrics the music and ohhh that voice, trust prince to come up with a brilliant song. The remixes are good but the original is the best, the video is good too.

Ok, I have read them all. This is one of the best song that have come from the Artist in a long time. No I am not hatin' on him. I think he is a musical genius that has had problem finding his groove. This song along with the other on the cd from which it was released is the best. The remixes are even better. If you are a real fan it is a must have. If you are not then it is a must listen to. either way you can not go wrong with it.

The remixes on this song are okay but the song itself is forgettable. This sounds like everything else on the radio. I guess that's okay but what happened to the Prince who created new sounds?
