  Misc


"Cream" is a Rock And Roll song by Prince and the New Power Generation from the 1991 Album '' Diamonds And Pearls ''. The song is Prince's fifth (and currently last) U.S. number one hit Single . Prince has claimed that he had written the song while standing in front of a mirror.

The single's B-side was reused from the " Gett Off " single, "Horny Pony", a Rap - Pop song that was replaced at the last minute by "Gett Off" on ''Diamonds and Pearls''. "Cream" was also released as a Maxi-single EP with Remixes and songs/raps loosely based on "Cream". The EP was notable for including several Prank Telephone conversations.

In the UK, "Gangster Glam" was an additional B-side on the 12"/CD maxi single. In Japan , an EP was released with the tracks from the U.S. maxi single, and four tracks from the U.S. "Gett Off" maxi single.
