[[File: SymbolSmallerBlue.png|link=Alias: Symbol]] began playing the song live in October 1999, so it is possible the track was recorded in the studio then, but this is not known (the track is credited to [[Prince]] rather than [[File: SymbolSmallerBlue.png|link=Alias: Symbol]], but this should not be considered verification that it was recorded after he changed his name back to [[Prince]] in June 2000). |
