The same set of sessions produced [[Daddy Pop]], [[Schoolyard]] and [[Walk Don't Walk]], but mostly focused on a solo album by [[Rosie Gaines]], for which [[Hold Me]] was recorded, along with [[Pain]], [[Streetwalker]], [[In The Name Of Love]], [[Turn Your Lights Down Low]] and [[My Tender Heart]]. More work was done on the track in October 1991, and the track was offered to Anita Baker, who turned it down, before [[Prince]] offered it to [[Jevetta Steele]], who simply overdubbed her vocals. |
In late 1993, the song was tried out during early sessions for [[Mayte]]'s first album at [[Paisley Park Studios]], Chanhassen, MN, USA, and was included as the ninth track on an early version of the album, which was titled [[Album: Child Of The Sun|Latino Barbie Doll]] at the time. The track was removed when the album evolved into [[Album: Child Of The Sun|Child Of The Sun]], however. | In late 1993, the song was tried out during early sessions for [[Mayte]]'s first album at [[Paisley Park Studios]], Chanhassen, MN, USA, and was included as the ninth track on an early version of the album, which was titled [[Album: Child Of The Sun|Latino Barbie Doll]] at the time.
