Did Prince ever cover Sweet Thing by Chaka Kahn?

It's just that I listened to it today and could have sworn I heard him do it on one of the Musicology acoustic sessions or something.

loads of times from his first demos to playing with chaka khan at various gigs around 98 including cafe de paris (beautiful strange vhs) and he did it accoustically on the musicology tour, once was broadcast on the art of musicology, and he played it at the indigo2 aftershows too

There is also a Prince bootleg studio recording of the track from circa '79.

Shelby and Prince sang it at the 3121 aftershow I was at. Shelby came over to me...took my hand...and we sang a verse of it together. cool

the recording of prince singing it on 'the park, vol. 2' is excellent.
