The song (as '''Boy''') was originally intended for [[Vanity 6]] and it is safe to assume that [[Vanity]] recorded a version of that track since her vocals can be heard played backward on the revised and released version. [[Prince]] changed the perspective of the song in Fall 1984 when he re-recorded his vocals and retitled it '''Girl'''. |
