That Girl Thang, an acoustic track, was first available for download from Prince's 3rdEyeGirl.com website on 18 February 2013, within hours of the track's recording.
It is unknown if this song is also planned for inclusion on an album or any other project.
Blogger Dr. Funkenberry, reported in an online video chat that the song was written and recorded about six hours before its release; since the song was available in the early morning of 18 February 2013, this places the recording on the evening of 17 February 2013, most likely at Paisley Park Studios, Chanhassen, MN, USA.
The track appears to have been recorded in a single take with no overdubs, however, and Prince can be heard to turn off the recording machine at the end of the track, so the track could have been recorded on a mobile device from another location.
