International Lover is the eleventh and final track on Prince's fifth album 1999, and, in 1983: was included as a b-side on some versions of the single Little Red Corvette, the album's second single. Initial tracking took place on 14 January 1982 at Sunset Sound, Hollywood, CA, USA (three days after Bold Generation and Gigolos Get Lonely Too, the same day as The Walk, and the day before Colleen), during sessions for The Time's second album What Time Is It?. It was intended to be sung by Morris Day, but Prince reclaimed the song to use on 1999 instead. It is likely that Morris Day recorded vocals for the song during these sessions, but this is unconfirmed.
