Loose! is the fourth track on Prince’s fifteenth album Come. In 1993, before its release on Come, it was also included in the Glam Slam Ulysses stage-show, during the segment titled “Hades” (credited, as was the whole project, to  ). In 1994, the track was included in The Beautiful Experience TV movie (again credited, as was the whole project, to ). In 1995, a clip of a remix, titled (Lemme See Your Body) Get Loose! (credited to Tora Tora) was included as the ninth track (fourth song) on the NPG Records Sampler Experience given to some audience members during The Ultimate Live Experience tour. In 1998, the full version of the remix, re-titled Get Loose (containing some musical variations), was included as the seventh track on the third disc of Prince’s 20th album Crystal Ball (his fourth using the name ).
Basic tracking took place on 4 March 1993 at Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota at Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota, as a predominantly rock version. Additional recording was done in 1993 (retaining Prince’s vocals and guitar lines) producing the more dance-oriented version which was released. Despite Prince naming Tommy Barbarella and Sonny T. in the song, the recording was made solely by Prince. The track was originally included as the fifth track on a March 1993 configuration of Come. It was kept for inclusion as the sixth track on the 11 March 1994 configuration of Come. In 1994, a Loose! single was also planned, possibly including a remix. Recording/remixing dates for (Lemme See Your Body) Get Loose! and Get Loose (originally known as Loose Dub) are not known, but it is likely remixed in 1994 at Paisley Park Studios.
The lines 'Music Maestro please' and 'Let’s go' heard in the (Lemme See That Body) Get Loose remix ("NPG Records Sampler Experience" version) are taken from Polestar Magnetics’ The X-Static Goldmine samples and sound effects compilation released in 1991. The line 'Music Maestro please' line itself is originally from The Love Unlimited Orchestra’s 1975 song Bring It On Up. The unreleased remix of (Lemme See That Body) Get Loose, titled Loose Dub also uses a sample from Igor Stravinsky’s "The Firebird" as performed by the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra And Chorus conducted by Robert Shaw in 1978. The same rendition was also sampled in Shall We Dance.
