Get Blue

Does anyone have any info on this outtake? When it was recorded? Was it left off an album? Recorded for another artist in mind? Thanks!

Using the same instrumentation from the "Open Book" outtake, this ballad was given to Louie Louie for their 1993 Let's Get Started album. In the song, Prince pleads to his lover to not hesitate and listen to others in regards to their relationship.

Co-written by Levi Seacer Jr, it was recorded originally in late 1990 according to Uptown's, The Vault.

Wow! I LOVVVVVE this song. It's so beautiful, especially toward the end where Prince starts wailing away and the piano accompanies him so beautifully.
love

Love it too. And I love Open Book as well. I think his vocal deliverance (on The One and) on Open Book is one of his best.

I LOVE Prince's version. I cannot stand Louie Louie's version. He can't sing at all.
