| While specific recording dates are not known, basic tracking for [[Prince]]’s original version took place in January 1987, at [[Prince]]’s [[Galpin Blvd Home Studio]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota (during the same set of sessions as [[La, La, La, He, He, Hee]] and overdubs onto [[77 Bleeker St.]]). The song was originally intended for African American R&B singer [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meli%27sa_Morgan Meli’sa Morgan], but it is not known if [[Prince]] submitted the song to her for her use. [[Prince]] revised the song in late June 1988, at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota (during the same set of sessions as recording [[Time Waits For No One]] and revising [[I Guess I’m Crazy]] and [[Train]]).
