Recording dates are unknown, but the track was believed to have been included on the aborted [[Album: High|High]], announced by [[NPGOnlineLtd.com]] to be complete (in rough form) on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/August_8|8 August, 2000]], which would suggest the track was recorded in late 1999 or 2000. [[File: SymbolSmallerBlue.png|link=Alias: Symbol]] began playing the song live in October 1999, so it is possible the track was recorded in the studio then, but this is not known (the track is credited to [[Prince]] rather than [[File: SymbolSmallerBlue.png|link=Alias: Symbol]], but this should not be considered verification that it was recorded after he changed his name back to [[Prince]] in June, 2000). | Recording dates are unknown, but the track was believed to have been included on the aborted [[Album: High|High]], announced by [[NPGOnlineLtd.com]] to be complete (in rough form) on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/August_8|8 August, 2000]], which would suggest the track was recorded in late 1999 or 2000.
