Baby Doll is an unreleased track recorded in late April - early May 1992, at Studios 301, Sydney, Australia, while in Sydney on the Diamonds And Pearls Tour (during the same set of sessions as Goldnigga, Deuce & A Quarter, Goldie’s Parade, Everybody Get On Up and A 1,000 Hugs And Kisses).

The lyrics were written by Australian pop singer Kylie Minogue and the track was intended for her.

The song is listed here as a "Prince and the New Power Generation" track, as Kylie Minogue did not re-recorded it and the only version that is known to exist is by the full band with Prince on lead vocals.

Baby Doll was one of the Vault tracks recorded between 1990 and 1992 slated to appear on the planned Diamonds & Love expected to be released by The Prince Estate in the summer of 2022.
