The song was removed from the 1993 worldwide reissue, for unknown reasons. [[Prince]] wrote the track, but did not appear on the version as released in 1991. |
| − | + | [[Prince]]'s original track started life as '''Skip 2 My U''', tracked on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/December 10|10 December 1990]], at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota. His version was released in October 2023 as the eleventh track of ''Vault Tracks part 2'', one of the discs with previously unreleased tracks included with the [[Album: Diamonds And Pearls SuperDeluxe| Diamonds And Pearls ''Super Deluxe Edition'']]. Oddly, [[Prince]]’s version used the title '''Skip To My You My Darling''', while [[Jevetta Steele|Steele]]'s version was released under the title '''Skip 2 My U My Darling''' (using [[Prince]]’s usual shorthand spelling). | |
