Blue Love is an unreleased song tracked and overdubbed on 28 December 1983 at Sunset Sound in Hollywood, California, during the same session that yielded The Glamorous Life and Next Time Wipe The Lipstick Off Your Collar. The upbeat song consist of a Linn drum pattern, bass, Oberheim synth, and piano and has multiple layers of Prince. The lyrics tell the story of someone reflecting on a weekend love affair, describing the passion of a Saturday night, the mystical feeling of being with his partner on Sunday morning, and then how they are gone by Monday. The track was further worked on in March when a harp was added but remains unreleased.
