The | + | In a session, likely at at a later date, [[Prince]] updated his vocal to sing the song in falsetto and vocalize along with the melody line. He also had his (girl)friend [[Kim Upsher]] record lead vocals on the song. The song’s initial recording date and overdub date possibly fall before [[Vanity]] was considered for the girl group [[Vanity 6|The Hookers]] that he was developing ideas for, and ultimately became [[Vanity 6]]. So the fact he had [[Kim Upsher]] record vocals for it might indicate [[Prince]] considered using it for [[Vanity 6|The Hookers]]. |

[[Eric Leeds]] later added saxophone overdubs on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/May 12|12 May 1991]] (two days after [[Gett Off]] was recorded, on the same day as [[Blue Light]]), and the song was copyrighted (retitled '''U’re All I Want''') on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/June 17|17 June 1991]]; it is likely that this version was instrumental. In 2000, it was listed (as '''U’re All Eye Want''') as one of 22 tracks [[Prince: A Celebration]] attendees could vote on for inclusion in the [[Album: Crystal Ball Volume II|Crystal Ball Volume II]] release, and was chosen as one of the 17 final selections.
