Is there any other place to view this? My media player won't support the video and I'm DYING to see this. The download didn't work, nor did the AOL. | |

artistically it's a great video, and it also tells a powerful story. I sent it to someone who never has understood why I am a Prince fan. Here's what he said

Perhaps that has influenced my opinion of the video. Its like being served a plate of sh*t with a cherry on top. Sure, the cherry might taste nice but its hard to swallow when its covered in sh*t! i have a tendancy to dislike Prince videos in which he has writing on himself. ![]() [Edited 9/24/04 9:58am] [Edited 9/24/04 10:09am] You do as I say | |

OMG! Prince is on a roll! This video is awesome. My Prince is doing big things in the year of 2004. This is the best video I’ve seen in a long time. Prince is no joke, he is on a roll. LOL, I have to calm down this is way 2 big. I am truly loving this video. Prince looks so dame good along with the rest of the band. That is Keshia from Whale Rider

![]() A video with a deep meaning which has a social and religious meaning. As we see in the video the Christian persecutes others for what happened , The effects of Prince performing the song on images of destruction was a cool idea Andrew | |

Byron said: metalorange said: As for the video, pretty cool, I'm glad Prince had the guts to go with the 'controversial' nature of the song. Although, I thought the song was about innocent people of arabic skin tone being picked on and blamed for 9/11, that there is a dangerous perception that all 'arab' people (for want of a better word) are terrorists when of course they are not - but in this video she and her family ARE terrorists! Which goes against the song's message? Although I suppose that bit can be interpreted as a dream, people's perceptions force her to think of herself that way... Her family aren't terrorists...that's the reason she snuck out of her bedroom window to attempt her attack at the airport. I get the feeling that, after the Towers attacks, she was struggling between being true to her heritage (everyone started hating her and linking her and her family to terrorism simply because of their "fixed heritage"), and trying to be more "American" (the scene with her family getting on her because of how she was dressed, her hairstyle, etc..)...Over the time period depicted in the video (a year, perhaps??..More?? Less??) she had grown into someone who became angry and disillusioned, and eventually became a pawn for some terrorist cell...only to return literally at the last second to what she knew to be right... Yeah, on reflection, I think you're spot on. Be interesting to see if this song has any impact. I think it is far better to release a song that's going to be perceived as controversial now, what with the election and all. No point in hiding it away until everything has calmed down. This video has got me thinking more about this song. It must be quite hard to write a song commenting on 9/11 and the aftermath without being expoitative or too sermonising and favouring one side over another - but Prince has managed a good balance. That's quite impressive. My only criticism has been that the music is a little too happy for the subject matter, though... | |

319 Yes it is Keisha Castle-Hughes from Whale Rider. I think the video could get a little confusing towards teh end for many people.....at first it appears that everyone thinks this girl is a terrorist and that they are right. I think you have to think about it to realise that, ultimately, she isnt | |
