Initial tracking took place on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/January 2|2 January, 1993]] at [[Paisley Park Studios]], Chanhassen, MN, USA (during the same one-day session that produced [[Dark]], [[Dolphin]] and [[Come]]). In 1994, a live version of the track was included on a planned [[Single: "Live"|"Live"]] single which was not released.

The song was played live regularly from 1993-5, and fans became familiar with the stripped-down live version (based on the unreleased original version). When the album was released, many fans expressed frustration that there were significant overdubs, erasing the 'raw' feeling of the original ([[Endorphinmachine]] has become a common reference point for fans hearing new material live before hearing a studio version - songs such as [[Zannalee]] and [[Fury]] were also overdubbed in their released studio versions).
