The track was intended for a single by [[94 East]] for Polydor Records, but this release never came to pass. The recording session did not go well, as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hank_Cosby Hank Cosby] was not interested in [[Prince]]’s ideas for the track. [[Pepé Willie]] later re-recorded parts of the song and recorded overdubs onto the track, but recording details are not known. |
