The track’s lyrics were supposedly inspired by [[Vanity]]. [[Jill Jones]] was in the studio with [[Prince]] during the recording and helped come up with the rhyming words ending in "...iate" at the end of the song. It is unknown if the track was intended for any project at the time of recording, although in 1983 there was some discussion of the track being used by [[Vanity 6]], [[Apollonia 6]] or [[The Time]]. |
[[Wendy Melvoin]] and [[Lisa Coleman]] worked on the track further at [[Sunset Sound]] in Hollywood, California, most likely on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/September 27|27 September 1984]], adding vocals and possibly other instrumentation. Again, it is not known if this song was intended for any project at the time of additional recording. The liner notes for [[Album: Purple Rain Deluxe|Purple Rain Deluxe]] state that the track was recorded in September 1984, but this refers only to the overdubs by [[Wendy Melvoin|Wendy]] and [[Lisa Coleman|Lisa]]. | [[Wendy Melvoin]] and [[Lisa Coleman]] worked on the track further at [[Sunset Sound]] in Hollywood, California, most likely on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/September 27|27 September 1984]], adding vocals and possibly other instrumentation.
