Allegiance question...

Was "Allegiance" written for someone else? He does a nice job with this song.
I never was a big fan of Diamonds & Pearls and looking at some of the unreleased songs from around '91, I wonder why he chose to release stuff like "Jughead" and "Walk Don't Walk" when he had recorded...

Allegiance
Open Book
Play
I Hear Your Voice
Hold Me
Get Blue
Player
The P
Don't Say U Love Me
and the classic, Work That Fat
...plus many other great tunes. But I guess Prince does what he wants.

So, who ended recording "Allegiance?"

I do believe that Howard Hewett recorded this song on one of his later albums, I think it's actually the title of the album. I've never actually heard it before, how does it sound?

It's a simple ballad, similiar to "Hold Me" or "Open Book." Or maybe a
really simple "Adore."

Not as good as Prince's version.
