Oh my goodness... 1st video mis-step i've ever seen (Scandalous)

Wow... I don't quite know what to say, guys. I spend a lot of time scouring the web for video clips of his performances. I stumbled on this video for "Scandoulous" back from the Batman album.

Check it out yourself.

Nevermind the outfit, it was par for the period. The choreography made me absolutely cringe, and then laugh, and then make me very uncomfortable. I know it's just a video and not that deep but I'm a diehard, so.....

Anyway,he looks like he took a begining ballet class and the teacher asked him to put together a three-minute performance before he was ready. I was shocked, since it was far worse than anything I've ever seen from him, even going back to the really early days.

This was an anomoly that came out of nowhere. Does anyone know who does his choreography or what in the world was up with this video?

Holla back.

I saw this on BET once-- a lot of Prince's videos are ultra-cheapo, quickly filmed on a soundstage, so it didn't really surprise me.

i think this video's kinda boring, but i also think it's beautifully photographed, and that he looks great in it. shrug
