Gotye - "Sometimes It Snows In April" [Prince Tribute]

Enigmatic Aussie singer and multi-instrumentalist Gotye celebrates Prince with an emotionally dense cover of "Sometimes It Snows In April." Gotye's 2013 Grammy for Record Of The Year was presented by Prince, who expressed his appreciation for the song during the exchange. This misty a capella take on the 1986 closing track from his Parade LP is a fitting note of thanks that brings Gotye full circle, capturing both a visceral pain and a deep well of respect for Prince.
