"How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore?" is a song by Prince. It is a ballad of romantic longing with some gospel elements. On his original recording of the song, which was released as the non-album B-side to his 1982 single "1999", Prince performs most of the song in his falsetto range, with his own bluesy piano playing providing the only instrumental accompaniment. The song's first album appearance was on his 1993 compilation ''The Hits/The B-Sides''. It was later included on the soundtrack to the 1996 film ''Girl 6''. Prince also performs the song on his 2002 live album ''One Nite Alone... Live!''. Artists who have covered the song include Stephanie Mills (1983), Joshua Redman (1998), and Alicia Keys (2001). Roger Cicero recorded the song with Soulounge for the 2004 album ''Home''; a live version by Cicero is included on his 2008 single "Alle Möbel verrückt". American Idol season 11 finalist Jessica Sanchez performed the song on the American Idols LIVE! Tour 2012. ==Alicia Keys version== Keys recorded a cover of the song—retitled "How Come You Don't Call Me"—for her debut album, ''Songs in A Minor'' (2001). It was released as the album's third and final U.S. single and became a moderate chart success, reaching the top thirty in Australia, the United Kingdom, and on the U.S. ''Billboard'' Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. An official remix of the song, produced by The Neptunes, was included on the ''Remixed & Unplugged in A minor'' reissue, released in 2002. It features vocals from Justin Timberlake towards the end of the track. Keys' cover of "How Come You Don't Call Me" was inspired by a long-term relationship with a partner. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore?」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
