− | Basic tracking took place on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/December 14|14 December 1987]] at [[Paisley Park Studios]], Chanhassen, Minnesota (two days after [[file:Eye88.png|15px|link=Eye No]][[Eye No| No]] and [[Positivity]], and the day before [[Sheila E.]] recorded lead vocal overdubs on [[Latino Barbie Doll]]). The music, however, was completely different than the released track, described by [[Eric Leeds]] as "lighter, bouncier". The original version was included on the first configuration of [[Album: Lovesexy|Lovesexy]] compiled on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/January_21|21 January 1988]], but [[Prince]] still wasn't happy with the track. Keeping the lyrics, [[Prince]] created new music, and recorded a new solo version on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/January 29|29 January 1988]] (two days before recording [[I Wish U Heaven]]), which was included as the sixth track on an early February configuration of [[Album: Lovesexy|Lovesexy]], where it remained for the final release. | + | Basic tracking took place on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/December 14|14 December 1987]] at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota (two days after [[file:Eye88.png|15px|link=Eye No]][[Eye No| No]] and [[Positivity]], and the day before [[Sheila E.]] recorded lead vocal overdubs on [[Latino Barbie Doll]]).
