Wouldn't U Love 2

I've had this track on my ipod for a while now. It sounds like a tune from Princes earlier years. Anybody have any idea what album it came from? I've looked at the track listing from his earlier albums and cannot find it!

That tune was actually released on Paisley Park protege, Taja Sevelles' debut. It's rumored that Prince offered it to MJ, after Prince declined his request to duet on Bad.

Actually tittled "Wouldn't You Love To Love Me?"

"Re-recording the 1976 original several times, Prince most likely recorded this version in his home studio in 1978. Later in the year, it was worked on again for a project with Sue Ann Carwell. It was finally copyrighted this track in 1980. Using bass guitar, keyboard and a soft drum machine, it was eventually given to Taja Sevelle for her 1987 self-tiled album".

I love this song. One of my favorite outtakes. I don't know what version I have but I love it. cool
Some people think I'm kinda cute
But that don't compute when it comes 2 Y-O-U.
