Te Amo Corazón is the third track on Prince’s 31st studio album 3121. Three months before the album’s release, on 13 December 2005 (in the US written as 12/13, which reads backwards as 3121), Te Amo Corazón was released as a single without a corresponding album mentioned. In retrospect, however, Te Amo Corazón can be considered the album’s first single. A live version (in a medley with Fury) was included on the UK edition of the Fury single (in both audio and video formats), featuring former Revolution members Wendy Melvoin and Lisa Coleman.
Exact recording dates for the studio version are unknown, but it was likely recorded at some point in 2005 in either Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota, or 3121 Antelo Rd. in Los Angeles, California, with orchestra recordings by Clare Fischer recorded at Capitol Studios, Hollywood, California. The track was included as the fourth track on a late 2005 configuration of 3121, before Streets Of Panama was removed from the album before its release. Of note is that this is the earliest released studio track to feature Josh Dunham on bass guitar and Cora Coleman-Dunham on drums (although both appeared on a live version of Satisfied released earlier in 2005).
