− | Tracking | + | Tracking took place on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/January 11|11 January 1991]] at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota (on the same day as [[Martika’s Kitchen]] and [[Spirit]]). It was intended for the [[Album: Martika’s Kitchen|Martika’s Kitchen]] album, and was written as a response to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martika Martika]’s lyrics for ''Safe In The Arms Of Love'', which also appears on the album. '''Open Book''' quotes passages from this song - it is likely that [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martika Martika]’s writing input in the song is limited to those passages. It is unclear if Martika recorded her lead vocals on the song. It is also not known when [[Jevetta Steele]] overdubbed her vocals. |
