The song was written specifically for the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_L._Brooks James L. Brooks] movie [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I'll_Do_Anything I'll Do Anything], and the track was re-recorded by actress [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracey_Ullman Tracey Ullman] for the movie, and this version was included as the seventh track on a planned [[Album: I'll Do Anything|I'll Do Anything]] album. While [[Prince]] was not directly involved in this version, it is included in the listing here as his own version was intended as a demo for the soundtrack version, and was unreleased at the time. When preview audience reactions to the music were overwhelmingly negative, all production numbers from the film were cut, and the album was abandoned. No further changes were made to [[Prince]]'s version before its release. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaka_Khan Chaka Khan]'s version was recorded in late 1997 or early 1998 at [[Paisley Park Studios]], Chanhassen, MN, USA, although it reuses some of the basic tracks from [[Prince]]'s original version. It was included as the seventh track on a February 1998 configuration of [[Album: Come 2 My House|Come 2 My House]], before the tracklist was revised for the final release. |
