The mid-tempo song is driven by searing guitar and a whimsical staccato synth, with multi-tracked vocals, with [[Prince]] passionately delivering a plea to an unnamed object of affection, but written from a female perspective (''“Look at you, out of control with a crazy girl”).'' |

During [[Prince: A Celebration]] in June 2000, computer screens at [[Paisley Park Studios]] offered names of a selection of tracks which users could vote on for inclusion on [[Album: Crystal Ball Volume II|Crystal Ball Volume II]], and while '''Love And Sex''' was chosen by fans, the project was ultimately abandoned. It is unclear if this concerned the 1984 or 1986 song. | ||

The faster paced version with [[Sheila E.]] singing lead remains unreleased. | ||
