The song was considered for inclusion on [[Album: Vanity 6|Vanity 6]], but it is not known if a version with vocals by [[Vanity 6]] was recorded. It is possible that the track was worked on further in 1983, as some of the lyrics could be interpreted as referring to [[Dez Dickerson]]’s departure from the band and [[Wendy Melvoin]]’s arrival. |
In 1988, engineer [[Chuck Zwicky]] pulled the track out from the vault and remixed it, telling [[Prince]] it should be released. 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 the track (now known as '''Xtralovable''') was chosen by fans, the project was ultimately abandoned. It is not known whether this version was the same as an earlier version, or an alternate recording. | In 1988, engineer [[Chuck Zwicky]] pulled the track out from the vault and remixed it, telling [[Prince]] it should be released.
