Extraloveable was a stand-alone digital single released on iTunes in Canada only in late November 2011, to promote the Welcome 2 Canada Tour beginning two days later. It was made available in on iTunes platform in Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Japan one day after the initial release in Canada, and in the USA the following week.
The digital release contains a 2011 re-recording of the previously-unreleased 1982 track Extraloveable. It is not known if this is intended to tie-in with any larger studio project at the time, but a remixed form of this 2011 re-recording was later included on Prince’s final studio album during his lifetime, Hitnrun Phase Two in late 2015 (as Xtraloveable). In retrospect, Extraloveable can be considered the album’s first single.
This single did not enter the iTunes singles chart.
