released in the UK on September 26, 2014, by NPG Records through a renewed license with Warner Bros. Records (catalog number 9362‑49333‑5), arriving simultaneously with Prince’s solo album Art Official Age.

Live Out Loud was made available for download from Prince’s 3rdEyeGirl.com website on February 22, 2013, following a series of early teasers and unofficial premieres. The track had first surfaced the previous evening when Prince sent it to two fans, Jester Jenkins and JAK3vision, who streamed it on their YouTube channels. After Jenkins shared a download link in his comments, he was asked to remove it and announced that the track would soon be officially available on 3rdEyeGi
