No Call U is an unreleased song recorded in early 1982 at Prince's Kiowa Trail Home Studio in Chanhassen, Minnesota. The song is a fast rockabilly-style song in the vein of Jack U Off and Turn It Up. It is not known if it was intended for Prince's next album (which became 1999) or any other project. Vocals were also recorded by Vanity 6 for the track in 1982, although it was not included on any known configuration of the Vanity 6 album. Jill Jones also recorded lead vocal overdubs, most likely in 1985 (probably at either Sunset Sound in Hollywood, California or Washington Avenue Warehouse in Eden Prairie, Minnesota), but the track was not included on any known configuration of the Jill Jones album. It remains unreleased.
The track is often incorrectly referred to as U Call Me.
