The track was written by [[Eric Leeds]] and [[Prince]], and produced by [[Prince]]. The song was initially recorded with the title '''Sticky Wicked''' on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/June_9|9 June 1988]], at [[Paisley Park Studios]], Chanhassen, MN, USA (three days after [[Electric Chair]], on the same day as [[Pink Cashmere]] and [[Pickle]], two days before an entirely different song named [[Sticky Wicked]]).

− | In August | + | In August 1989, [[Prince]] asked [[Eric Leeds]] to compile tracks from the vault for a projected third [[Madhouse]] album. This track was one of ten selected, and in keeping with previous [[Madhouse]] releases tracks were now given tentative numerical titles of [[Andorra|17]] to [[Once Upon A Time|26]] (the album would be titled [[Album: Times Squared|26]]) - this track, until then known as 'Sticky Wicked' was given the title of '''25''' as the ninth track on the album at the time. When [[Prince]] suggested the album should be released as a solo album by [[Eric Leeds]], Leeds came up with (new) titles for each track, in Spring 1990; this track became known as '''Times Squared''' with the original title of 'Sticky wicked' already used for the song recorded two days after this song and released by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaka_Khan Chaka Khan] on her [[Album: CK|CK]] album. Leeds' album became known as [[Album: Times Squared|Times Squared]]. |
