Love Is A Losing Game is a cover version of the song by Amy Winehouse, which first appeared on her 2006 album Back To Black, and was released as a single in 2007.

A version by Andy Allo & Prince, seemingly recorded acoustically in one take (similar to their streamed version of Guitar), was streamed on Andy Allo's Facebook page within 24 hours of the announcement of Winehouse's death, indicating that it was likely recorded the same day.

It was then offered as a free download the following day on ThisIsRealMusic.com.

The song was written by Amy Winehouse. Prince performed the song occasionally in 2007, with Shelby J. singing lead vocals.

In Amy Winehouse's only performance with Prince, she sang lead vocals on this song, during an aftershow on 22 September, 2007 (am), 3121 at The IndigO2, London, England.

Although the song is usually performed live with a full band, the credits below reflect the released version.
