Actress and singer [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holly_Robinson_Peete Holly Robinson] sang lead vocals and it isn’t known if [[Tevin Campbell]] recorded vocals for the track.

It was included, in a slightly different mix than released, as the eighth track on a [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/May 5|5 May 1995]] configuration of [[Album: Child Of The Sun|Child Of The Sun]], where it remained for release, although it was worked on further in Summer 1995 before release. | |

That project, which consisted of material spanning both the [[Album: Diamonds And Pearls|Diamonds And Pearls]] and [[File:SymbolSmallerBlue.png|link=Album: Symbol]] eras, was reduced to the [[Album:_Diamonds_And_Pearls_SuperDeluxe|Diamonds And Pearls]] era, excluding songs recorded after October 1991 (and this track as a result). | |
