With this tear
I thee want
I long 4 u 2 talk 2 me like u did
That night in the restaurant

U spoke of love so openly
And again and again u promised me
That u'd never leave
But now u're gone

With this voice
I thee call
Sometimes I catch myself
Calling your name
When u're not there at all

Please tell me what I did wrong
Why must I hear your voice inside my head
All day and all night long
It's not fair

[Bridge]
[Ad-lib]

With these arms
I held u
When u told me u were dying
I had less courage it's true
And u wrote every day
Writing 'bout the things
That we could do
When your pain went away
But all that went away was u

With this tear
I thee want
I long 4 u 2 talk 2 me like u did
That night in the restaurant

With this tear
I thee want
I thee want
I thee want
I thee want

With this tear
I thee want
I long 4 u 2 talk 2 me like u did
That night in the restaurant U spoke of love so openly
And again and again u promised me
That u'd never leave
But now you're gone

With this tear



PrinceVault:

With This Tear is the 13th track (twelfth song) on Celine Dion's 17th album (second English-language album) Celine Dion. The track was written by Prince, but was re-recorded by Dion's own musicians for release.

While specific recording dates are not known, initial tracking took place in January 1992 at Paisley Park Studios, Chanhassen, MN, USA The song was initially intended for Jevetta Steele, but it is not known if she recorded a version of the track. It was submitted to Celine Dion soon afterwards, and she recorded her own version at some point between January and early March 1992, produced by Walter Afanasieff.

In 1993, a brief sample of With This Tear was used in a Segue from Carmen Electra's album Carmen Electra, as if heard while scanning through a radio dial (clips of Hit U In The Socket, In A Word Or 2, The Voice, Sexy M.F. and Goldnigga are also heard).

Celine sold 5 million according to the wiki for this album so P must have made a bit of coin out of this track

Alice is an unreleased song recorded on 28 May 1991 at Paisley Park Studios, Chanhassen, MN, USA. It is unknown if this song was intended for any particular project, and nothing other than the recording date is known about the track.

40 Ounces (a.k.a. The Boom) is an unreleased track by poet/rapper Ninety-9, recorded in 1993, at Paisley Park Studios, Chanhassen, MN, USA (during the same set of sessions as Burns 1, The Mood For Love, Stained Glass and Three Shots). The track is thought to be co-written and produced by Prince (as SymbolSmallerBlue.png). It is thought that the tracks were intended for an album by Ninety-9, but this remained unfinished and unreleased. Prince sampled the tracks heavily in 1993-5 recordings, however. 40 Ounces was sampled as a loop in many released versions of Space. The track itself, however, remains unreleased.

Asswhuppin' In A Trunk (a.k.a. Asswoop or Edward) is the fifth track (fourth song) on the aborted third Madhouse album, 24. In March, 1995, concertgoers at later dates on The Ultimate Live Experience tour received an NPG Records Sampler Experience cassette featuring various clips of "upcoming releases" - Asswhuppin' In A Trunk was featured (as well as Ethereal and Parlor Games).

Basic tracks were recorded on 7 July, 1993 at Paisley Park Studios, during a five-hour session that also produced Carnac (later renamed 17), (Got 2) Give It Up, Parlor Games, Rootie Kazootie and a mostly-instrumental version of Space, all of which were intended for a third Madhouse album, 24.

Kylie Minogue under pressure to release unheard Prince collaboration

Fans demand 'Baby Doll' release after Kylie reveals story behind their secret song

In the wake of Prince’s
death yesterday
, Kylie posted up a picture of the star, alongside a long
note telling the story behind their unheard song Baby Doll, written in the
90s.

And fans immediately demanded she release the tune either as a single, or on
her next album.

Kylie wrote: “My musical crush since my teenage years. I met Prince after
his concert at London’s Earls Court in 1992.

“I said I would love to work with him and he said, ‘Come visit the
studio’. He asked me where my lyrics were and where would I like my mic set
up. Joking with me.”

She added: “I did end up giving him lyrics for a song called Baby Doll.
His driver delivered a cassette to me later that night. It was a demo of
Prince singing and playing the song Baby Doll he had written using the
lyrics.

“We never recorded it properly. I then had the privilege of visiting
Paisley Park. It was a dream come true. Thank you for the music and
memories. #ripprince #whendovescry”

Desperate to hear the song, one fan wrote: “‘Baby Doll’ B-Side as a
tribute Kylie.”

Another said: “Can we hear Baby Doll on your next album?”

Others said: “@kylieminogue please record the song!!!” and “Can
we hear ‘Baby Doll’ now please? @kylieminogue.”

Kylie, 47, was a huge admirer of the Purple One and even hinted that she’d
like to work with him again a few years ago.

She said at the time: “I would love to sing with Prince because he was my
obsession as a teenager, literally.

“I might have paid for his car because I went to see ‘Purple Rain’ so
many times.”

PrinceVault:

Baby Doll is an unreleased track recorded in late April - early May, 1992, at Studios 301, Sydney, Australia, while in Sydney on the Diamonds And Pearls Tour

The track was intended for use by Australian pop singer Kylie Minogue.

Minogue was working on changing her image from a pop icon to a serious artist, however (resulting in her 1994 album Kylie Minogue), and it is unlikely that she seriously considered using Baby Doll, or even recorded vocals for the track.

The track is listed here as a "Prince and the New Power Generation" track, therefore, as the only recording that is known to exist is by the full band.

Some cool unreleased tracks round this period - Work That Fat, Player, Make Believe and the other songs from the I'll Do Anything sessions.
.
I liked that 'live band' NPG sound on the likes of Its About That Walk, She Spoke 2 Me, 5 Women.

Work That Fat is an unreleased song recorded at some point in 1991, most likely at Paisley Park Studios, Chanhassen, MN, USA (although possibly at Larrabee Sound Studios, West Hollywood, CA, USA). The comical song uses backing music from Martika's Kitchen, and was possibly recorded around the same time, in early 1991. Prince uses a slowed-down voice throughout the track (not dissimilar to that used on Bob George), and the narrator describes a date with a fat girl who eats everything in sight in the narrator's apartment ...

Regardless of the disastrous date, the narrator likes his women "fat 'n' proud, cause when they sit down they sit all around, the whole house, sidewalk and everything else." It is not known if the song was intended for his next album Diamonds And Pearls or any other project, although given the distorted vocals and the comical nature of the song, it was probably thought of as a side project of some sort, and if it had been released, it may not have received the artist credit "Prince".

Both Sonny T. and Mike Scott are called out by name during the song. Mike Scott would later go on to join SymbolSmallerBlue.png's band, but this is believed to have been his first appearance on a Prince-related recording.
