The third and fourth volume, ''Vault Tracks I'' and ''Vault Tracks II'' contains 12 previously unreleased songs ([[Money Don’t Grow On Trees]], [[Vagina]], [[Rearrange]], [[Colleen]], [[Turn It Up]], [[You’re All I Want]], [[If It’ll Make U Happy]], [[Purple Music]], [[Yah, You Know]], [[No Call U]], [[Don’t Let Him Fool Ya]] and [[Teacher, Teacher]]) and 11 previously unreleased versions (alternate or initial takes) of songs recorded between November 1981 and Summer 1982, during sessions for the original [[Album: 1999|1999]] album ([[Feel U Up]], [[Irresistible Bitch]], [[Bold Generation]], [[International Lover]], [[Something In The Water (Does Not Compute)]], [[How Come U Don’t Call Me Anymore]], [[Possessed]], [[Delirious]], [[Moonbeam Levels]], [[Can’t Stop This Feeling I Got]] and [[Do Yourself A Favor]]). Some of these songs were never considered for that record however, and many of them were reworked over the years, considered for other projects or offered to other artists. Additionally, the ''Vault Tracks II'' contains a solo 'Tour Demo' medley of [[Lady Cab Driver]] / [[I Wanna Be Your Lover]] / [[Head]] / [[Little Red Corvette]] recorded by [[Prince]] between the two legs of the [[1999 Tour]] in 1983. [[Prince]]’s Estate archivist, Michael Howe, wanted to include the initial version of [[Baby I’m A Star]] recorded in December 1981, but this specific recording was not found. [[Lust U Always]] and the original 1982 version of [[Extraloveable]] were left off this release because of their risqué lyrics. | The third and fourth volume, ''Vault Tracks I'' and ''Vault Tracks II'' contains 12 previously unreleased songs ([[Money Don’t Grow On Trees]], [[Vagina]], [[Rearrange]], [[Colleen]], [[Turn It Up]], [[You’re All I Want]], [[If It’ll Make U Happy]], [[Purple Music]], [[Yah, You Know]], [[No Call U]], [[Don’t Let Him Fool Ya]] and [[Teacher, Teacher]]) and 11 previously unreleased versions (alternate or initial takes) of songs recorded between November 1981 and Summer 1982, during sessions for the original [[Album: 1999|1999]] album ([[Feel U Up]], [[Irresistible Bitch]], [[Bold Generation]], [[International Lover]], [[Something In The Water (Does Not Compute)]], [[How Come U Don’t Call Me Anymore]], [[Possessed]], [[Delirious]], [[Moonbeam Levels]], [[Can’t Stop This Feeling I Got]] and [[Do Yourself A Favor]]).
