− | Specific recording dates are unknown, but | + | Specific recording dates are unknown, but basic tracking took place in late 1990 - early 1991 at [[Paisley Park Studios]] (during the same set of sessions as [[Thunder]], [[Jughead]] and [[Push]]). An early mix of the track was intended initially as the first track on a [[Single: Gett Off|Gett Off]] EP also containing [[Gett Off]], [[Horny Pony]] and [[Money Don't Matter 2 Night]], but this EP was aborted. The track was not included on the December 1990, configuration of [[Album: Diamonds And Pearls|Diamonds And Pearls]], indicating that it had not yet been recorded, but was included as the fourth track on the [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/March_1|1 March 1991]] and [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/May 8|8 May 1991]] configurations, where it remained for release. |
Remixes were made of the track for a single release, which gradually moved further away from the original track and were considered independent enough to warrant their own track names. These could be considered remixes of [[Cream]], but here are given their own entries: see [[Things Have Gotta Change (Tony M. Rap)]], [[2 The Wire (Creamy Instrumental)]], [[Get Some Solo]], [[Do Your Dance|Do Your Dance (KC's Remix)]], [[Do Your Dance|Housebangers]], [[Do Your Dance|Q In Doubt]] and [[Do Your Dance|Ethereal Mix]] for details of each track. | Remixes were made of the track for a single release, which gradually moved further away from the original track and were considered independent enough to warrant their own track names.
