While loosely based on the song [[Cream]] and one of the other corresponding tracks, [[Things Have Gotta Change (Tony M. Rap)]], this can be considered a song in its own right. While labeled an instrumental, the track features several samples of lyrics and phrases, from [[Cream]] and [[Things Have Gotta Change (Tony M. Rap)]]. |

Mix), [[Things Have Gotta Change (Tony M. Rap)]], [[Get Some Solo]], [[Do Your Dance]], [[Do Your Dance|Housebangers]], [[Do Your Dance|Q In Doubt]] and [[Do Your Dance|Ethereal Mix]]). The song uses some samples also found in [[My Name Is Prince]] (recorded [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/September 18|18 September 1991]], indicating that the recording of this track was around the same time), including a moan from [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indeep Indeep]’s 1982 song ''When Boys Talk''. But as these are samples taken from elsewhere, the use in [[My Name Is Prince]] should not be considered a sample of this track. [[2 The Wire (Creamy Instrumental)]], [[Things Have Gotta Change (Tony M. Rap)]] and [[Cream]] (N.P.G. Mix) also use sampled strings parts from [[High Fashion]], horn parts from [[Love Or $|♥ Or $]] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kool_%26_the_Gang Kool & the Gang]’ ''Chocolate Buttermilk''. |
