Nothing Compares 2 U - 1984 Prince version

Hello, folks!

I read on the Princevault site that there's a 1984 studio version of Nothing Compares 2 U by Prince himself. I know it says it remains unreleased, but many unreleased songs surfaced in bootlegs. Does anyone knows if this versions has? I'm really curious to hear it! Thanks

"Initial tracking for Prince's original version took place on 18 July, 1984 at the Flying Cloud Drive Warehouse, Eden Prairie (the same day Let's Go Crazy was released as a single). St. Paul Peterson and Susannah Melvoin overdubbed vocals onto the track in late 1984 - early 1985, and Clare Fischer added orchestral overdubs during the same period.

Unreleased version
Prince - all vocals and instruments, except where noted
Eric Leeds - saxophone"

It doesn't circulate.

Maybe with all the new stuff coming out this one will make an appearance soon. I've actually been hunting around for this one for years, but alas have yet to hit pay dirt
