maybe there is the difference in 'started writing' vs the final recording?

I mean did Prince could have WROTE/WRITTEN: SOTT IT FOREVER IN MY LIFE THE CROSS on a 3 hour plane ride. But he didn't record it on the plane.

Or you could read the article.

I did. And your point is?

Lemme quote:

and we land, and he says, 'Do you mind if we go to the studio?'—he was always cordial—and I'm like, you know, 'You can do whatever you want to do.' And he says, "Well, I'll just be there for a few hours and then we'll head to the house.' And so we go to the studio. We were in there for three days, almost four days, straight. When he's finished, I go into the studio and I'm listening to the music.

.

Indeed he didn't. He got off the plane and rushed to the studio. So according to Davison the writing and recording happened in one go. Not months apart.
