Nine Million Bicycles is an unreleased cover version of the 2005 track by Katie Melua (the first single released from her album Piece By Piece). Prince performed the song on few occasions in late 2006 and 2007 with slightly altered lyrics, but it is not known if his studio version was recorded in late 2006 or later with two other Melua songs he also covered (If You Were A Sailboat and The Closest Thing To Crazy, all written by Mike Batt). It is also unknown if these recordings were intended for any project at that time, but Prince was most likely not involved in the original songs. More information will be added if it becomes available.
