The track is also featured in the movie [[Film: Graffiti Bridge|Graffiti Bridge]]. In 2015, an acoustic version of the track, with some lyrical changes and renamed '''Oui Can Luv''', was included as the eighth track on the acoustic album [[Album: Oui Can Luv|Oui Can Luv]] by [[Andy Allo]] featuring [[Prince]] on acoustic guitar. The original version titled '''We Can Fuck''' was released (as '''We Can F**k''') as the tenth track on the ''From The Vault & Previously Unreleased'' disc of the [[Album: Purple Rain Deluxe|Purple Rain ''Deluxe Edition'' and ''Deluxe Expanded Edition'']] album in June 2017. |
While the song emerged from a jam on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/December 30|30 December 1983]] at [[Sunset Sound]] in Hollywood, California, basic tracking for the original version took place on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/December 31|31 December 1983]] and [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/January 1|1 January 1984]] (still at [[Sunset Sound]]), as '''We Can Fuck''' (although listed as "The Dawn" and "Moral Majority" respectively, as the original title was considered 'too raunchy'). | While the song emerged from a jam on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/December 30|30 December 1983]] at [[Sunset Sound]] in Hollywood, California, basic tracking for the original version took place on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/December 31|31 December 1983]] and [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/January 1|1 January 1984]] (still at [[Sunset Sound]]), as '''We Can Fuck''' (although listed as "The Dawn" and "Moral Majority" respectively, as the original title was considered 'too raunchy'). | ||

These recordings were intended for an aborted musical tentatively titled [[Musical: Dream Factory|Dream Factory]]. This version of '''We Can Funk''' was later sent to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Three_O’Clock Three O’Clock] for consideration along with [[Neon Telephone]], [[Can’t Stop This Feeling I Got]], [[Girl O’ My Dreams]] and [[Teacher, Teacher]], but the band decided to use only [[Neon Telephone]]. At one point Prince had [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micki_Free Micki Free] fly to Minneapolis to record lead vocals. It is unclear when this took place and to which version the vocals were added. |
