Prince Unreleased 257 | Around the World in a Day [2] (1984)

This version has a more conventional sound; contains more guitar and bass than the released version. This is the only Prince related song to give writing credit to David Coleman (Cellist).

The track was first written and recorded by David Coleman (brother of Lisa Coleman), when given two days of studio time at Sunset Sound in Hollywood, California as a birthday gift from Prince. When Prince heard the resulting track, he loved it and wanted to include it on his next album. He re-recorded the track and made some musical and lyrical changes.
