When Prince headlined Coachella in 2008, one of the highlights of his set was a slow, mournful version of Radiohead's Creep.

Despite fans' appetite for the song, it's been tough to track down, as Prince's legal time demanded that YouTube deleted any clip featuring the cover version. Even Thom Yorke was frustrated, commenting to the Associated Press: "He's blocked it? Well, tell him to unblock it. It's song!"

Now the ban seems to have been lifted, after Prince discovered a new upload of the track and tweeted the link from his @Prince3EG Twitter account.

But don't expect it to be there forever. Prince's PR team have just issued an enigmatic statement saying "get it while it lasts".

Watch it below. It's been worth the wait.
