Judith Hill (September 21, 2015) – "Cry, Cry, Cry" Single: Digital, USA
"Cry, Cry, Cry" served as the debut single from Judith Hill's first album, Back In Time. Although the album was initially issued as a surprise free download for a 48‑hour period in March 2015, the single appeared digitally ahead of the album's broader official release later that year. The title track featured Prince in both musician and producer roles.
The track first appeared as a streaming release on Spotify on July 28, 2015, using alternative artwork. It also became available on Tidal beginning September 15, 2015, before being issued as an official digital download the following week.
Despite artwork designed to resemble a 7‑inch vinyl single sleeve, the release was distributed exclusively as a digital single.
