It was originally intended for [[Vanity 6]]'s second album (which became [[Apollonia 6]]'s first and only album [[Album: Apollonia 6|Apollonia 6]] when [[Vanity]] left the band). The song was then considered for [[Album: Purple Rain|Purple Rain]], but was replaced on the album and in the movie by [[Darling Nikki]] in August 1983. Prince mixed the song further on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/January 30|30 January 1986]] at [[Sunset Sound]], Hollywood, CA, USA (on the same day as mixing [[With You]], [[Mia Bocca]] and [[Baby, You're A Trip]], and recording [[It's A Wonderful Day]]). [[Prince]]'s original version contains [[Prince]] calling out "Maceo" for a solo and the line "I don't want no trash, gimme some of that popcorn" (taken from [[Mother Popcorn]]) - this is an homage to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Brown James Brown] and saxophonist [[Maceo Parker]], with whom [[Prince]] would work many years later. |
