🟣 Fallinlove2nite – Digital Single: Mar. 2014

🟣 Prince feat. Zooey Deschanel – Fallinlove2nite – Digital Single: Mar. 2014

Label: NPG Records / Epic

Release Date: 17 March 2014

Length: 3:18

A sparkling, synth‑pop burst from Prince’s late‑period renaissance, Fallinlove2nite stands as one of his most unexpected collaborations — pairing him with Zooey Deschanel for a standalone digital single that later became retroactively tied to HITnRUN Phase One.

A surprise pop gem born from a sitcom cameo and reborn as a digital‑era single.

🟣 Summary

Released digitally on 17 March 2014, Fallinlove2nite was promoted as a standalone Prince single and credited to Prince feat. Zooey Deschanel — only the second time in his career he shared a commercial single credit with another artist outside his own band. The track premiered during Prince’s guest appearance on New Girl (2 February 2014), then rolled out across radio, streaming, and digital storefronts. A version without Zooey Deschanel’s vocals later appeared on HITnRUN Phase One (2015), making this release the only place to obtain the duet version.
