In 2007, the [[Single: Stand Back|Stand Back]] single was re-released, containing several new remixes of the track. [[Prince]] appears on the song playing a keyboard part (uncredited). The only part he did were the 8th note up beats in the chorus. All other synth parts were done by Dave Bluefield on Oberheim OBx-a as well as the beat on the Oberheim DMX drum machine [[Prince]] was given co-writing credit as that keyboard line was heavily inspired by [[Prince]]’s own song [[Little Red Corvette]], but he had no direct input in writing the song. |

It just gave me an incredible idea, so I spent many hours that night writing a song about some kind of crazy argument, and it was to become one of the most important of my songs.” When she later went to record the song, she called [[Prince]] to tell him the story and twenty minutes later [[Prince]] showed up at her studio. “[He] walked over to the synthesizers that were set up, was absolutely brilliant for about 25 minutes and then left,” she later told rock music journalist [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timothy_White_(editor) Timothy White]. “He spoiled me for every band I’ve ever had because nobody can exactly recreate – not even with two piano players – what [[Prince]] did all by his little self.” Despite [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stevie_Nicks Nicks] recount of [[Prince]] doing a lot, she seems to discard Dave Bluefield’s input, playing basically all main keyboard parts. |
