It's a nice gesture from you, but "Love...Thy Will Be Done" is not an outtake, rather an actual hit released by Martika (produced by Prince). A tear-jerker, nonetheless.

It's all coming back to me now, like it was deep in the ocean
I'll beat my sword into a plow, and share a heavenly potion
With my future queen.

Such a brilliant lyric. Expresses who he's been, who he is, how he got there and what he wants. Pure, mature prince. One of the best songs he ever recorded.

"All good things that say, never last

and love, it isn't love

until it's past."

"The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves. And wiser people so full of doubts." (Bertrand Russell 1872-1972)

Dinner with Delores
Must be some kind of sin
Like a Brontosaurus
She was packin' it in
There may or may not be something coming!

And it was on Originals, too. Although - dare I say it - I prefer the Sonny T. version.

But in the 90s, I bought the 5-CD book In Rock, and "Love... Thy Will B Done" was on it. I just loved it so much.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.
