Fallinlove2nite was a digital single released on 17 March 2014, and promoted as being a stand-alone Prince single. It was made available on iTunes and Amazon.
The single is credited to "Prince feat. Zooey Deschanel"; it is only the second commercially available single by Prince to contain a co-credit other than Prince’s own band (following U Make My Sun Shine featuring Angie Stone; singles featuring Sheena Easton were credited only to Prince).
Fallinlove2nite (without Deschanel’s vocals) was included on Prince’s 38th studio album Hitnrun Phase One when it was released in September 2015, but this project is believed to have come later. In retrospect, however, Fallinlove2nite can be considered the album’s first single.
The song has been broadcast (as an edited studio recording) during Prince’s appearance on the TV series New Girl on 2 February 2014. It was premiered on radio station 102.3 KJLH, based in Los Angeles, CA, USA, before being available to stream in full the following week on iHeart Radio’s website and on 3rdEyeGirl YouTube account.
