“With This Tear” is a previously unreleased studio recording from Prince’s legendary vault. Recorded in November 1991 at Paisley Park, the track has been newly mixed and mastered by GRAMMY-nominated engineer/producer Chris James (Frank Ocean, Miguel, Janelle Monáe), a longtime Prince collaborator (HITnRUN Phase Two, Art Official Age, Plectrumelectrum), and features Prince producing, arranging, composing, and performing all instrumentation. Shortly after its creation, Prince offered the song to Céline Dion, who recorded her own version in 1992. This track is the beginning of several unreleased Prince recordings scheduled for release this year, as part of a never-before-released Prince album project.
