Whey Eye Lay My Hands on You - video

When Eye Lay My Hands On You is one of my favourite tracks from the 00s. Just love it. I've just seen a snippet of a video. Does anyone know if the video ever got any airplay? Was it ever released as any kind of single? I only know it from the NPG Ahdio Show, though I know it's on Chocolate Invasion too.

.

It's such a strong track - just wondering if it ever got recognised as such when it as first released?

I remember it being regarded as the strongest track of the NPGMC era for sure. One of very few worth salvaging.

The full video was never released - I think it's just the first verse and chorus that was released on NPGMC.

Ah, OK - that makes sense. Thanks.

IIRC, it was meant to be a sort of video advertisement rather than an actual full music video. It's a shame, though. That song is one of my favorites, and the video is pretty hot, too.

One of my favourite songs. I never knew there was a video, I would love to see it. Only saw the Montreux footage floating around.

I'm quite partial to Silver Tongue too, but it was a fairly weak output during that period...

I love this song too from the moment I first heard it - and it woudl be nice if the longer version of the video would surface if there is one.

Thank you Prince for every note you left behind 💜
