Fallinlove2nite was released on the stand-alone digital single Fallinlove2nite (Prince's first on Epic Records) in March, 2014. The song was first broadcast (as an edited studio recording) during Prince's appearance on the TV series New Girl, broadcast on 2 February, 2014.
The full studio version was premiered the following month (along with Funknroll) on radio station 102.3 KJLH, based in Los Angeles, CA, USA, before being available to stream in full the following week on iHeart Radio's website.
The song was recorded specifically for the New Girl appearance, as vocals are shared between Prince and the show's lead actress Zooey Deschanel (who is also a professional singer, as one half of She & Him).
Although the New Girl performance was intended to appear as though the track was being performed live, it was lip-synched over the studio recording.
While specific recording dates are not known, it is assumed to have been recorded in late 2013 at Paisley Park Studios, Chanhassen, MN, USA (Prince's performance on the show was filmed on two days beginning 12 December, 2013).
It is not currently known if the track is intended to be used in any other way.
