The song was further worked on in early November creating a slightly longer version called '''Glam Slam ’91 – Hype Mix'''. An edit of a little over 5 minutes premiered on Twin Cities public radio station [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WLOL_(defunct) WLOL] on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/January 6|6 January 1991]]. It was sent to them to promote [[Prince]]’s newly opened Glam Slam club in Minneapolis, and was played on the station several times that day. |

Instead '''Glam Slam ’91''', forecasts [[Gett Off]] with its '' 'Everybody grab a body, pump it like you want somebody/wanna party' '' chorus and the ''‘Peter Paul’s Almond Joy’'' and '' ‘Paisley crib’ '' raps which are almost identical to the ones in [[Gett Off]]. |
