Extalovable...more info

I was going through some of my "old" cassettes and caught the song Extralovable. It brought back memories and reminded me RFTW. Anyone like this song as well or provide some additional info on it?

Extra Lovable
Although recorded solo by Prince, he performs it as a band number, calling out the names of his band members while mocking Dez Dickerson's decision to leave by asking "Dez, don't U like my band?" The song is built around a guitar riff and is rockier than most of the 1999 material. Prince pleads with his lover to take a bath with him, even to the point of threatening rape. The song was considered for Vanity 6's first album. With the revised title of "Xtraloveable", the track was picked by fans during the "Prince: A Celebration" for the projected Crystal Ball Volume II album.
Rhythm floods my heart♥The melody it feeds my soul

Thanks for the insight...I have several other tracks that I would love to know the story behind the art.

This is my sister's favorite song. She really digs the unreleased stuff. Moonbeam levels is another one of her "grooves"
Say it's just a dream...
U open up ur eyes and come 2 realize
u simply imagined this
So u lean over and give her a kiss
Here on earth, here on earth,
with u it's not so bad
Here on earth, here on earth
eye don't feel so sad
Stay right here
