Details are not known, but the shooting may have taken place on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/April_5|5 April 1992]] on a day-off between two shows (like the shooting of [[Video: U Got The Look|U Got The Look]]). The scene with [[Robia LaMorte|Pearl]] and [[Prince]] likely took place at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hotel_New_Otani_Tokyo New Otani Hotel] in Tokyo, Japan also.

+ | The full 4:56 (album version with [[Carmen Electra]]) was aired on the [[TV Film: Act I|Act I]] TV-special only in December 1992. During the song part of the song, [[Prince]] is seducing both [[Robia LaMorte|Pearl]] in his bedroom and [[Carmen Electra]] over the phone. An edit from the video was released on the [[Home Video: 3 Chains O’ Gold|3 Chains O’ Gold]] home video with a completly different second part. After the main stage performance, the music ends abruptly. Alternate scenes of [[Prince]] and [[Robia LaMorte|Pearl]] having sex in the bedroom are included interspersed footage of [[Mayte]] dancing wildly during an arabic ceremony until she goes in a transe and faint (this part was most likely filmed in Egypt with [https://www.randeestnicholas.com/ Randee St. Nicolas] in Late 1991). At the end of both versions, [[Prince]] is seen thoughtful and visibly unwilling to pursue his sex affair with [[Robia LaMorte|Pearl]] who leaves the room disappointed. | ||
