With This Tear is the 13th track (twelfth song) on Celine Dion’s 17th album (second English-language album) Celine Dion. The track was written by Prince, but was re-recorded by Dion’s own musicians for release.

While specific recording dates are not known, basic tracking took place in January 1992 at Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota (during the same set of sessions that produced Born 2 B.R.E.E.D., In A Word Or 2, The Continental, Damn U, The Flow, 3 Chains O’ Gold, Qualified and a revamped version of Sex). Clare Fischer arranged and recorded orchestration for the song, at Mad Hatter Studios, Los Angeles, California. The song was initially intended for Jevetta Steele, but it is not known if she recorded a version of the track. It was submitted to Celine Dion soon afterwards, and she recorded her own version at some point between January and early March 1992, produced by Walter Afanasieff.

In 1993, a brief sample of With This Tear was used in a Segue from Carmen Electra’s album Carmen Electra, as if heard while scanning through a radio dial (clips of Hit U In The Socket, In A Word Or 2, The Voice, Sexy M.F. and Goldnigga are also heard).

Prince re-recorded the song with the group Milenia in Summer 2001 at Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota. This version of With This Tear was intended for Milenia’s first album, but it was ultimately not included when it evolved into Our Story released in 2005.
