MartikaLoveThyWillBeDoneJessie Ware, last spotted letting her hair down and getting into an early ’90s groove in the music video for her single, “Imagine It Was Us,” keeps the decade on lock with a new cover of Martika’s “Love… Thy Will Be Done.”

One of four songs co-written and produced by Prince for Martika’s sophomore album, Martika’s Kitchen, “Love… Thy Will Be Done” peaked at #10 in October 1991.

Hearing Ware wrap her lovely voice around “Love… Thy Will Be Done,” I can’t imagine why her cover couldn’t fare as well or better today.
