| − | While specific recording dates are now known, basic tracking took place in December 1995, at [[Paisley Park Studios]], Chanhassen, Minnesota, based on [[Tommy Barbarella]]'s home studio recording (which had no musical input by [[Prince]]). Although [[Prince]] had changed his name to [[File: SymbolSmallerBlue.png|link=Alias: Symbol]] two and a half years previously, the song used the name [[Prince]] in its credits, perhaps because the rest of the album contained songs by "[[Prince]]".

It also contains various spoken samples from the [[Film: Girl 6|Girl 6]] movie, featuring actress [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theresa_Randle Theresa Randle] as "Girl 6". | + | While specific recording dates are now known, basic tracking took place in December 1995, at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota, based on [[Tommy Barbarella]]'s home studio recording (which had no musical input by [[Prince]]).
