Jealous Girl is an unreleased song recorded in Summer 1981 at Prince's Kiowa Trail Home Studio in Chanhassen, Minnesota (during the same time as Pizza and Drive Me Wild). The track was intended for an album by The Hookers, but was abandoned when The Hookers developed into Vanity 6.
The track was offered to The Bangles after Prince met Bangles lead singer Susannah Hoffs on a flight to London, England, in early February 1985 (while flying over for the BPI Awards, 11 February 1985); Hoffs asked Prince to provide songs for their next album, and he provided them with Manic Monday and Jealous Girl, which they rejected.
