The track was registered as '''7 Hours (I Wanna Melt With U)''' on 7 July 1992 at the Library of Congress. It was originally planned for the maxi-single of [[Single: 7|7]], but [[Prince]] liked the track, and wanted to include it on the [[File:SymbolSmallerBlue.png|link=Album: Symbol]] album. A sample of [[7]] is still part of the song. It initially replaced one [[Symbol segues#Unreleased Segue # 2|segue]] on a late-Summer, 1992, configuration of the album, but to make the album fit on a single CD for release, several of the album’s [[Symbol segues|segues]] were later removed, eliminating some of the story elements of the album. |
