If there is such a thing as a surefire No. 1 then this could be it. Chaka Khan, left, covers a Prince song, aided by Stevie Wonder on harmonica, with hip hop icon Melle Mel for company.

Wonder reportedly recorded his part on April 5 1984, the same day he performed at soul legend Marvin Gaye’s funeral.
